“I was diagnosed with lichen sclerosus. Testosterone was pres...”

I was diagnosed with lichen sclerosus. Testosterone was prescribed to treat it. At that time I only had white spots. Later I had a hysterectomy. I had all the symptoms of low hormones and was treated with cBHT. My mood became much better. My lichen sclerosus, however, started getting worse. I started getting lesions. My doctor had me put my Biest cream and testosterone cream on it and it got much better. When my doctor switch me to a Biest pill, the lichen sclerosus flared up again. After I switched back to the cream, it calmed down. It never goes away, but is under control with the hormones. If I cannot get my cBHT, not only will my lichen sclerosus become unmanageable and extremely painful, but I will also suffer from extreme depression.

Hear their stories. Protect their own words. Protect their access to compounded medicines.

On this page, we can only touch on the data that demonstrates the importance of compounded medicines to the lives of millions of people in this country. While the decision to take this vital therapy from patients and physicians might be profitable for big pharmaceutical companies, it will be disastrous for the millions of patients that those same pharmaceutical companies cannot serve!

We encourage the appropriate committees in both the House and Senate to hold hearings on this critical issue.
