“My physician said my menopause symptoms were normal.”

I was not willing to accept that menopause was the gateway to old age. I was unhappy that exhaustion, sleeplessness, weight gain, lack of energy, no libido, and hot flashes were just here to stay. My physician said at my age regular hormone replacement therapy was not recommended.

I was amazed, and frankly so is my physician that I have had such amazing results. No more hot flashes. I am sleeping so well that I have energy and enjoy long walks on my day off rather than recouping from work. As a result of the bio-identical hormone therapy, I have had energy! I have felt like starting a workout regimen leading to significant weight loss, about 30 pounds, resulting in better blood pressure and my A1C has dropped back into the normal range. My libido has returned and I feel 20 years younger.

Please don’t take this lifeline away. I have an active job that requires me to be energetic. Before this treatment, I was unable to keep up. I am unable to retire as I am only 60. I rely on this system and care plan. I am closely watched by my provider. My physician is pleased with my results.

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.
