“I was not thriving after cancer surgery...”

After a radical hysterectomy because of cancer, I was struggling with the SEVERE menopausal symptoms. My mental health was very poor.
I was placed on HRT which helped with some of my symptoms….I could function. After a while, my doctor started discussing their concern about HRT’s link to cancer and wanted me to know that I couldn’t be on HRT much longer. I started to panic. I knew I would not be able to function in my job, my personal life, or my home life if I had to go back to living without the relief I got from HRT.
Thankfully a friend directed me to a clinic that offered a “non-cancer promoting” compounded hormone therapy. It changed my life!!! I no longer have to worry about being denied HRT, I have relief from ALL of my symptoms, and I no longer have to stress about my medicine giving me cancer. Please do not allow the FDA to take away my access to effective, non-cancer-producing medicine.

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.
