“compound hormones”
I have been blessed to be able to purchase my compound hormones for many years. I had a hysteretomy at the age of 38 now 72 and because of the the compound hormones I have been able to live a healthy life. I have had no side affects from them and I have not had any problems since being on these for years.
“cBHT”
I've been using a compound pharmacy to provide hormone replacements that actually work for me without horrible side effects for over 20 years. Traditional pharmaceuticals left me with bad reactions, and no relief for the symptoms I suffer.
I cannot tell you how import it is to provide these types of medications that actually work without bad side effects.
The cBHT that I am on has given me my life back. I can think clearly, I don't have horrible hot flashes every 5 minutes, I feel better and have my energy back. I'm able to work a fulltime position, I enjoy my family and friends and they enjoy me. The traditional drugs by big Pharma gave me horrible side affects - headaches, hot flashes, memory loss, and in general I simply felt horrible and it made me miserable.

“I had estrogen positive breast cancer and vaginal atrophy - I need these compounded hormones”
I need these hormones because they are one quarter as strong as the Estring estrogens and I need to use a local estrogen to avoid UTIs. My breast cancer was estrogen and progestroren positive. Tamoxofin , hormone fighting treatment I need to take, causes vaginal dryness, which I have had for many years. Also, the Estring which I have used for many years is now a $200.00 co pay every 3 months. UTIs can cause death.

“Healing”
BHRT is safe, effective, different from Premarin and Prempro, and proven beyond any reasonable medical and scientific doubt. Results were published in April 2007 in the Journal of the American Medical Association and then again reinforced by similar research the following June published in the New England Journal of Medicine.
I am a patient that has been using BHRT since 2018. It has helped me restore my hormones to help with joint pain, moods, anxiety, maintain weight, PMS, and sleep.
Please do your unbiased research and see for yourself how BHRT helps thousands of Americans achieve health in a safer way versus pharmaceutical drugs with nasty side effects.
It is nice to have one more tool in the box to help live a healthy and productive life.
“Access to progesterone”
I was having severe allergy problems of sinus drainage and coughing. The ENT and Pulmonologist could not find a prescription to help and they did not know why I was coughing. They said I had a lot of sinus drainage that was going into the lungs and I was coughing to clear out that drainage. I tried over 10 different drugs and treatments to no avail.
Then my pharmacist suggested that I do a cortisol test and progesterone since I'd had a lot of personal stress recently. My cortisol was way low normal, almost low and my progesterone was not measurable.
I started topical progesterone once daily and within a week my coughing stopped. My progesterone was so low that my body couldn't make enough cortisol to control allergies. I continued the progesterone and discontinued several asthma and allergy medications that were making me feel anxious with brain fog and memory issues.
Topical progesterone has given my life and energy back!
If I had to continue the allergy route Medicare would have spent over $1,000 a month for the rest of my life for allergy and asthma medications.

“I had all the symptoms when I went through menopause”
I had all the symptoms when I went through menopause. Palpitations, depression, anxiety, insomnia and hot flashes. I started taking Prempro and it gave me headaches everday. In search for something better I found cHRT and never looked back. I've been on these hormones for 20 years. Since I've been on them I've never had a bad mammogram and breast cancer runs in my family. 69 years old and feeling great!

“If a "hot flash" could be described as an experience that lasts”
If a "hot flash" could be described as an experience that lasts, seemingly, forever accompanied by clothes-drenching sweats, eventual fatigue, adverse mentality and mood swings and a general feeling of depression and hopelessness, that would describe me long after menopause should have given way to some kind of stability most older women seem to achieve. Were it not for CBHRT my suffering in this way had no hope for relief. I am thankful my doctor knew about College Pharmacy (Colorado Springs) and their work with HRT. Without it I cannot imagine where I would be, today. This also goes for my husband who has suffered through this problem with me.

“Senior on Medicare uses HRT to fight osteoporosis”
I used HRT for many years to help fight osteoporosis. I used Estrogel and Divigel when I was employed full time with health benefits. Now that I have joined Medicare, I can no longer find insurance coverage (part D) for a gel or cream because there are no generic forms of these products. I now use Biest (estriol 50%/Estradiol 50%) from a compounding pharmacy. Also, the product I buy from a compounding pharmacy is less expensive than pharmaceutical HRT.
“After going through menopause I didn't think there was hope”
After going through menopause I didn't think there was a light at the end of the tunnel. I had brain fog, sleepless nights, high anxiety, vaginal dryness, etc. When I was placed on bioidentical hormones I couldn't believe the difference it made. I had been on premarin and other hormone replacements that didn't work.
I felt very confident and comfortable taking these compounded hormone replacement therapy. I would recommend bioidentical hormone replacement therapy in a heartbeat.
I would hope that the FDA would understand how many people that cbht has helped many women and men. They may have done a study but it doesn't mean anything to me unless you are on it.

“I had a hysterectomy when I was 36 years old”
I had a hysterectomy when I was 36 years old. Post surgery, I was always tired, moody, and had decreased libido. I started on traditional hormone replacement and experienced headaches, nausea, and other unwanted side effects. My gyn at the time started me on compounded HRT, the dosing based on hormone levels in my bloodwork. Compounded HRT allowed me to get exactly what I needed and nothing else. My dose has been reduced as I aged, reflection what would naturally happen to me without a hysterectomy. I am now 67 years old, with a wonderful quality of life. I am active (run half-marathons), remain happily married, and accomplished career goals after my surgery that I know would have been almost impossible without the support of this medication.

“I tried the patch from a large pharmaceutical company”
I tried the patch from a large pharmaceutical company, they were not effective and the cost was extraordinarily high. Since I found testosterone was available through our local compounding pharmacy I immediately made the switch and which has benefitted my quality of life for several years
“I initially used testosterone”
I initially used testosterone that was manufactured by a drug company and the cost was great. I switched to a compounding pharmacy. It was less expensive which allowed me to continue my therapy and I believe the compounded medicine was as effective or possibly more effective.

“World of difference for me”
I had severe peri menopause symptoms before cBHT and went to several gynecologists who wanted to put me on a variety of birth control pills which had not only not helped but has made symptoms worse. There wasn’t one out there that gave me any relief but nobody seemed to care. I found a gynecologist who actually took the time to hormone test me and I was very high estrogen and very low progesterone. Not everyone is the same!!!!!!!!! We shouldn’t be forced to only have the option of taking something made for most people of it doesn’t work for us! I take something formulated for me. And it’s natural! Bonus!! Please please save cBHT! Did the FDA study do hormone testing and make products specific to the individuals or just make one thing and give it to everyone? As hormones continue to change I want to be able to take something that continues to help!! Not only have the option to take something that makes me sick or nothing at all.

“I was diagnosed with lichen sclerosis when I was about 40.”
I was diagnosed with lichen sclerosus when I was about 40 years old. I went through menopause early and suffered terribly for 20+ years. Finally, I found a doctor who had successfully treated LS with compounded cBHT. Within 2 weeks of using the cBHT my life changed. I had not had pain free intercourse in 20 years and my husband and I had not even attempted intercourse in 3 years. Today, we have an active, enjoyable, painless sex life. I am not in excruciating pain. In fact, I am pain free. My life has changed dramatically!! I need cBHT.

“Being able to take the progesterone in oil injections is a huge factor”
Being able to take the progesterone in oil injections is a huge factor to my ability to naturally start my family. I have PCOS and endometriosis with chronic low progesterone. Without this compounded hormone I would not have been able to get pregnant in a way that was natural and healthy for my body. This drug is a vital part to my overall health and the life of my child and future children.

“I started having seizures at 14”
I started having seizures at 14, when I was going trough menopause I couldn't sleep for days and my seizures increased even with medication. Two weeks after being on a hormone pellet I was able to sleep all night and my seizures stopped. My neurologist said my hormones were the cause of my seizures that's why when I was balanced they went away. I have always had seizures with medication and they have never found anything wrong with any scans. Please don't take this away from us, it was very hard not sleeping for days. If you want to speak to me, you can. I think you would be very interested in my story.

“At the age of 43 in 2003, I underwent a craniotomy.”
At the age of 43 in 2003, I underwent a craniotomy to remove a pituitary cyst. During that surgey I lost pituitary function and became Adrennal insufficeint as well as steroid insufficient. I immediately began taking supplemental steroids and hormone replacement meds. After a few years I was still not feeling myself. My physical drive was sluggish. I had difficulty exercising for very long and as a result was losing my physical stamina and strength, both which are incerdibly important to prevent osteoperosis as well as to maintain long term emotional and physical health. My doctor mentioned that some replacing the normal testosterone level at my age my help. It really has made a huge difference for me and I have since been able to consistantly lift weights and do cardio workouts. This treatment is controlled and very effective. Please continue to provide this medication to prevent further health issues both physically,, mentally and emotionally. Thank you!
“Effects of decreases in hormones”
As I reached menopause I found the decrease in hormones affected intimacy. I first tried pharmaceutical estrogen vaginal tablets, a very low dose, and started to experience pains in my head. My doctor recommended compounded cream. I have been using this cream for 5 years with no ill effects. I recommend to continue with compounded hormonal therapy!
