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.

California Laguna Niguel“Prior to taking cBHT, I suffered from hot flashes, fatigue, ...”
Prior to taking cBHT, I suffered from hot flashes, fatigue, brain fog, and vaginal dryness. The hot flashes would happen suddenly, regardless of the temperature, and would leave me feeling sticky and sweaty. If I was in a crowded setting, I would be embarrassed that I was having to fan myself to try to cool myself off. Daily around 3:00 pm, I would begin to feel sleepy as if I needed a nap. I rarely had the luxury of having time to take a nap, so I felt as if I were just dragging myself through the rest of the day. I had a difficult time recalling words and frequently forgot things. In addition, my hair, skin, nails, and eyes were dry, and sex with my husband was painful.
However, after taking cBHT, each of these issues disappeared. I feel younger, more vibrant, and more energized by the tremendous increase in my quality of life. I sleep soundly at night and wake up feeling refreshed. I have energy that lasts throughout the day. I no longer suffer from hot flashes. I no longer feel as if I have brain fog. I feel and am well hydrated. My skin and hair and nails are no longer dry and brittle. Sex with my husband is again enjoyable.

I take bioidentical hormones that are prescribed and compounded for me based on my labs. I am in my sixth year of daily use. My hormones follow the natural rhythm of my cycle and are prescribed by my integrative MD, Phd. I am 69 years old. My health is better than it has ever been. I am healthy. I consider my hormone therapy foundational to my wellness.

I tried the commercially available hormones for three years. They did not benefit me nearly the same way as the compound hormones did. I am so grateful that compounded hormones exist because I will never stop using them, even if I have to go to Mexico to get them. They truly gave me my life and sanity back. Standard hormones did not.
Stop messing with hormones that work!
This is MY body, I want to determine what goes into it.

I couldn't sleep because of severe hot flashes throughout the night. I was so anxious when I would get in bed, knowing what was to come during the night. I was exhausted every day and emotional to the point I'd have to leave my office and clients sometimes. It took a while to figure out what method and dose of bioidentical hormones were most effective, but when that was established, life was wonderful! I sleep soundly and have enough energy to keep going on with my day, every day. No more emotional mood swings either. My sex life with my husband of 33 years has improved immensely, mainly because the bioidentical hormone treatment gave me back my sex drive. It had been such a pleasurable part of our marriage for years and when that disappeared, our relationship was greatly affected! I am so grateful for this treatment. It changed my world in so very many ways!

I have an autoimmune condition and have been on replacement hormones for over 22 years. The first 20 years of hormone replacement therapy was achieved through pharmaceutical prescriptions. However, over time, they became less and less effective in my body. The compounded bioidentical hormone replacement therapy allows my doctor to hone in on the exact dosage needed for my condition. It has made a significant difference in my quality of life.

I have been using cBHT for 15 years, starting in my premenopausal years and through menopause. I currently use it for my thyroid medication, which is essential to my health. This type of therapy transformed my life from terrible night sweats and hot flashes to normal living. I depend on this type of medication and am in total support of continuing it.

I feel as young as I did premenopause. Using the Wylie protocol has allowed me to stay slim, no belly fat, no moods swings, plenty of energy, no night sweats, no hot flashes, and I sleep well too. I would never want to stop stop using this protocol. I am so grateful for it.

Compounded hormones have made huge difference in my life. I had virtually no testosterone level. My weight gain has been controlled, my hair loss has stopped and my energy levels are much better. My sex drive has returned to normal and my overall contentment and happiness with my life is so much better.

Bioidentical hormones completey changed my life. As a professor, I need energy, motivation and a healthy body to contribute to the well-being and educational needs of my undergraduate and graduate students. Bioidentical hormones are safe, amazingly effective and do not have the unwanted and dangerous effects of synthetic hormones which ironically are approved by insurance companies. Keep bioidenticals as a choice in healthcare!

I have experienced numerous benefits from choosing to take bioidentical hormones. The most effective for me have be topical and vaginal in the following ways:
- Bone density numbers improved.
- Improved and sustained daily energy
- Improved cognition
- Improved sleep
- Improved libido
- Diminished brain fog
- Diminished vaginal dryness
- Diminished daytime hot flashes and night sweats
It is a win win for myself and my loved ones.

Before cBHT, I had a two year period where I could not sleep and the hot flashes never went away in the daytime. It was ruining my life! cBHT helped me not only restore my sleep patterns, but it helped me feel completely normal again and is allowing me to really enjoy my older age. I have never had any bad side effects from it. Thank you.

I started cBHT in my 40's to balance my hormones. By age 50 I was completely in menopause. The hormones allow me to sleep well. They contribute to my sense of stability and well-being. I worked a high stress job until I was 57 and dealt with crisis effectively under great stress 24/7. Thanks to cBHT, exercise, and healthy eating, my blood work panels are normal and I feel good at age 66. I would not feel and look as healthy as I am without this valuable medical support over the years.

Many years ago, a hysterectomy was performed on me without my permission while I was in the hospital on bedrest waiting for test results of why I was not feeling well. I came in thinking I had the flu and was getting ready to travel. A nurse accidentally mistook me for another patient, ignored that I had an IV and took me off bedrest. As soon as I stood up, I went into a coma, was rushed into surgery leaving me with only a part of one ovary and no possibility of having children. When I reached menopause, I suffered extreme hot flashes and the only thing that has helped was prescribed compounded bioidentical hormones. I tried a couple of times to see what would happen if I stopped taking them and the symptoms came back. I have continued to take them to this day and I'm 74. A month ago I had a bone scan done after several years with the last bone scan showing I had no symptoms of osteoporosis although my mother and grandmother had to take supplements for this. These most recent results showed that there was very little change from my last tests.

Bioidentical hormones have radically changed my life. Before going on bioidentical hormones, I could not sleep. My other systems were shutting down without the hormones, my hair started to fall out, I developed a histamine intolerance, I was having headaches and hot flashes, and I was moody and agitated. All of those symptoms disappeared when I started the bioidentical hormones. If bioidentical hormones are removed from the market, I refuse to take synthetic hormones. I would rather live with my symptoms than poison my body and create other issues. Which most synthetic pharmaceuticals do.

cBHT has greatly changed my life and lifestyle for the better. I began menopause with anxiety, depression and insomnia. I constantly felt overwhelmed. My marriage suffered and my work suffered. As a result, I didn't want to be around people. I withdrew and didn't want to go out. BHT gave me back my life! I can now sleep, I no longer have anxiety and no longer struggle with being overwhelmed. I feel like I can live again and interact with people again. Even my marriage is better! When I was young I watched my mother and grandmother suffer from menopause and isolate themselves from society. I don't want that for my life. I am passionate about bioidentical hormones. I live a healthy lifestyle, I eat healthy and try to exercise often. I do not want unsafe hormones in my body from a source that is not bioidentical. I never want to go off my cBHT.

I went from getting zero sleep, being irritable and having a terrible quality of life, before I was able to get the right dose of plant-based, bioidentical hormones. I don't know what I'd do without them. Humans should have a choice and a variety of options for maintaining health.

At age 21, I lost my period completely. I spent three years going to multiple doctors and tried different medications like metformin and spironolactone. Nothing would help my hormones go back into balance and induce a period. After the first month of applying the gel form of bioidentical hormones, my period started. It has begun to normalize and it has had a great impact on my health and self esteem.
