Instead of the one size fits all pharmaceutical dosage for estrace and progestin, the bioidentical HRT has been designed to fit the levels of estrogen and progesterone my body needs. The amount can be adjusted to maintain the levels that work best for me without side effects. The bioidentical works in conjunction with the synthroid medication. The pharmaceutical dosage caused loss of hair, dark skin pigmentation over the lips and on the knees, ringing in the ears, thyroid nodules developed and irritability/mood changes. After undergoing a recent DEXA scan, the gynecologist recommended I remain on the bioidentical hormones as the tests showed the density has been stable for several years with no new loss of bone. The gynecologist is not the doctor who prescribes the HRT but supports my doctors decision.

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.
