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 was experiencing dryness and atrophy due to menopause. cBHT has help tremendously. Prior to compound, I was using pellets from medical meds. They irritated me so my doctor referred me to compounding pharmacy.

I have multiple allergies and have major reactions to non compound. Since the hormone has been placed into a cream that I do not react to, I have been balanced out. My insurance does not pay. I pay out of my pocket to have my hormones balanced. I do not feel that cancelling this is beneficial to me AT ALL!

I have been using compounded bioidentical hormone therapy for several years. It increases my stamina and maintains proper weight for my senior citizen age. I have no side effects that are noticeable. I find this therapy is safe and effective.

I have felt healthier and overall balanced hormonally, during peri-menopause. When I started menopause, my menopausal symptoms were very minimal in comparison to friends and other people I have spoken with not using bioidentical therapy.

Nevada Reno“I had vaginal dryness and the normal Big Pharma vaginal crea...”
I had vaginal dryness and the normal Big Pharma vaginal cream prescribed did no good, but the bioidentical hormones set back the clock and I am still having well lubricated and enjoyable sex at 75 years age. My sister also used the same bioidentical estradiol and progesterone creams and had her bone density go from osteopenia to normal bone density. Bioidentical hormones didn't cause problems. Horse piss Premarin Estrogen and artifical Progestrone did. They threw out the baby with the bathwater because the bioidentical hormones did not cause the problems. Un-opposed estrogen caused a problem because it must be countered with real progesterone not Progestin. These should not be illegal just because Big Pharma can't make money on them. I had an ultrasound just recently, and everything is good: ovaries, uterus- no problems.

I tried a couple of prescribed hormone replacement, but they didn't work for me. Someone told me about hormone replacement so I did the testing for it and they were able to make the hormone based on my results and it works great. I have been on cBHT for about seven years.

I chose compounded hormone therapy for a healthier and more natural drug application. I wanted to receive all the benefits of higher levels of hormones in my system without the harsh side effects of the mass produced Big Pharma solution.

cBHT has drastically improved my energy levels and sex life with my spouse. It also eliminated the "hot flashes" that I was experiencing multiple times per day as a mid-30's male, which was interfering with my ability to meet with clients while working.

I like taking the Bi-est replacement therapy because it is more natural. The major drugs that are in Premarin or other hormone replacement therapy can cause cancer.

I was plagued with severe hot flashes, foggy memory, severe fatigue, depression and weight gain. Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy has significantly diminished all of these symptoms and eliminated fatigue, depression and foggy brain. PLEASE do not take my hormones away!

Nevada Reno“These replacements have changed my life for the better! I di...”
These replacements have changed my life for the better! I didn't know I was feeling so bad until I started HRT and started feeling better. I thought this is the way everyone feels but once I started therapy my life change in so many ways. I feel less anxious. I am much calmer. Before therapy I felt like I was always on the verge of boiling over. The tension and anxiety building up in my body was unexplainable. In addition to the anxiety I was having hot flashes that interfered with my ability to work while having them. I worked in healthcare.
I would have night sweats and be unable to sleep for days. I would wake up tired and unrested and then again with anxiety. This went on and on and escalated for years. I didn't realize the anxiety was a symptom of menopause. Since taking cBHT I have never felt better. I wish I had heard about them and started taking them years ago. I can't imagine my life without them! My quality of life would be greatly diminished and I would not be able to function as I do now.

I have been fortunate in having the opportunity to use HRT compounding formulas for several years since the onset of menopause. These compounding formulas have helped me maintain vigor and a sense of well-being. My energy level, my enthusiasm, and my mental acuity have been greatly affected in a positive way through the use of these compounds. I cannot imagine not having the opportunity to continue using these products. I am exceptionally healthy, and I am still working at the age of 68 with no intention of retiring any time in the near future. People I work with are amazed at my level of ambition, and I know it is because of using the HRT compounding formulas. It would be a tragedy if these were unavailable!

cBHT has provided relief from peri-menopausal and menopausal symptoms (headaches, mood swings, irritability, vaginal dryness) and greatly improved my quality of life. For example, a compounded estriol cream eliminated my vaginal dryness (which was causing very painful intercourse), making intimacy enjoyable again - life changing!

HRT has helped me manage through pre-menopause, improved my quality of sleep, and brings emotional balance, allowing for better decision making and communications. I don't feel tired anymore, have a more vibrant attitude toward my private intimacy with my spouse, and have a more all-around happy attitude.

I used to get the worst PMS symptoms. The worst one was the menstrual cramps I used to get. There were multiple times I was unable to work or go to school because of them and they would actually cause me to have cold sweats because they were so painful. I started taking compounded Progesterone 200mg capsules seven days before I start my menstrual cycle and up to three days into my menstrual cycle. I have had almost no PMS symptoms since I started my compounded Progesterone capsules which has allowed me to be the best version of myself. I no longer have to miss work or class because I'm in too much pain to function. Compounded bioidentical hormone therapy has greatly improved my life and I don't have to prepare myself for a painful menstrual cycle every month anymore.

Before this, I had no libido. I suffered vaginal atrophy, loss of pleasure, loss of sensation, and my partner was also losing interest. Many doctors tried telling me to just accept this, that this is "normal" aging. After the cBHT, I was able to be interested in and feel everything again. Sensation returned. Life was good again.

I was not sleeping at all and my libido was completely gone. I tried every OTC therapy there was and finally found a doctor that prescribed HRT compounds (testosterone and estrogen) and lozenges (progesterone). I'm finally sleeping and have my sex life back. I really don't know what I would do without them. This is a MUST for women. Why do they constantly try to mess with us and our bodies?
