United States
In the United States, millions of people depend on compounded medicines to live normal, productive, healthy lives. Their first-hand stories speak directly to the power of this important therapy. As the FDA considers removing access to certain medicines like compounded hormones, their voices must be part of the conversation.

I had a hysterectomy at 42 and have been on cBHT hormones for approximately ten years. They are so much better for me, healthier and enabling me to live a more active life without extreme mood swings and anger. I am a "happy camper". Please don't take these away from me!

California Los Angeles“I tried all the standard FDA approved hormones...”
I tried all the standard FDA approved hormones for over THREE YEARS and they did not help. My specially compounded hormones are a lifesaver. Big pharma can go make money off something else. I should be able to decide how to treat my own body. I am an educated professional who consulted many highly regarded doctors before comng to my treatment conclusions. Compounded bioidentical hormones are what makes me feel normal. I don't feel depressed, fat and old, like most of my contemporaries. They don't use compounded hormones because they are simply afraid.
I will use these hormones the rest of my life. If I need to go to other countries for them, I will. Don't take away something so incredibly beneficial to so many women. They will have to pry my hormones out of my cold dead hands one day.

California Milpitas“I have been on cBHT 14 years and plan on using it the rest of my life.”
When I first decided to take cBHT I had flushing, gained weight, kept waking up at night and experiencing vaginal dryness. After being on cBHT all of the above were resolved. The flushing stopped, I lost weight, slept through the night and the vaginal dryness went away. I have been on it for 14 years and plan on using the rest of my life.

I suffer terribly when I don't have estrogen or progesterone. I have svere sleep disorders and depression. I was suicidal. The replacement therapy gave me my life back. I am dead without it. I am currently 75 and have been on replacement for 28 years. I am in excellent health and take no prescription medications other than thyroid replacement and cBHT. These medicines are critical to my health.

California PLEASANT HILL“One of the hormones has helped my ability to relate to people.”
One of the hormones has helped my ability to relate to people. Being able to relate is crucial to all aspects of life well-being. It also lowers my anxiety, and improves my overall physical and mental functioning. The results have far surpassed conventional medications. There are no side effects. Conventional medication side effects were tearing up my liver and gut. An MD, who is integrative in her approach (holistic) helped me wean from conventional medications and start taking the bioidentical compounded medications. My life has returned to a very full and functional state on the bioidentical hormones. In fact, it is the best state I have been in for decades!

California Redondo Beach“Before and after menopause, I had big problems with sleep.”
Before menopause and after menopause, I had big problems with sleep disturbance and irregular bleeding. My hormones weren't balanced. My doctor had me start compounding pharmacy hormones and it made a huge difference in my life! HUGE! MY SLEEP RETURNED TO A NORMAL PATTERN! And, I am a teacher and this made a huge difference in my life and my ability to do my work and help students with their lives. I tried non compounding hormone replacement prescription pills and they didn't work as well. I pray that this choice, for the many of us who take compounding pharmacy hormones, is not taken away from us! It is extremely valuable and the compounding hormone replacement works in a very healthy and beneficial way. Please keep this choice available for us. PLEASE!

California 140 Cabrillo St. 15“I had a complete hysterectomy and prescribed synthetic hormones...”
I had a complete hysterectomy a number of years ago due to hemorrhagic tumors and was prescribed synthetic hormone replacement patches applied daily. They were not working, so the doctor instructed me to put on more and more patches daily. This failed to help and made me feel wooden as if I were no longer myself. I finally put the remaining hundreds of unused patches into the garbage and went cold turkey. I felt like myself again but experienced disabling nonstop hot flashes and weakness and could not even get up the stairs to my bedroom so I slept on the couch. My nutritionist referred me to a nearby naturopath, who prescribed bioidentical hormones. These worked immediately and I got my life back. I was able to return to my consulting practice of helping to create affordable housing for constituencies of public and nonprofit entities and was featured in a number of Who's Who publications. At age 72, I am now retired, slender, and active- doing yoga, gardening, and walking 1 to 2 miles a day- and no gray hair!

I am so thankful for cBHT. I believe cBHT saved my marriage and my job!
I went from irritable and angry mood swings to calm thoughts and actions after starting my cBHT. I was able to concentrate at work again and maintain balance of my emotions when dealing with others.
I went from aggravating hot flashes and night sweats to balanced moods, better concentration, and a good night's sleep.
I went from lack of physical fulfillment to complete satisfaction.
I believe the importance of the availability of compounded cBHT is imperative for any women's physical and mental health and wellness.
Please keep cBHT available for us!

Florida Tampa“My primary psychiatrist could not support my ability to sleep.”
My primary psychiatrist could not support my ability to sleep. It was hormone replacement (progesterone) which enabled me to sleep during perimenopause and menopause. I was desperate and had tried sleep medications. I am forever grateful to my compounding pharmacist. She is in Maryland, and I moved to Florida, and I still consult with her for my menopausal needs.
