“I have never felt better after starting my hormone creams. I...”
I have never felt better after starting my hormone creams. I am now 76 years old. I had a complete hysterectomy at 39 and suffered from depression, hot flashes, and overall not feeling "right". Hormones have given me a new lease on life. I will not give them up and PLEASE don't take them away. It is bad enough that insurance will not cover them, but I am willing to pay for them out of pocket.

BHT allows you to age and not disintegrate. BHT keeps you to be vibrant, sharp, happy, and healthy as you age. It should be the normal recommended course of action by physicians if they are trying to keep us healthy. They are extremely necessary and must NOT BE TAKEN FROM PEOPLE!

“My doctor recommended a total hysterectomy and oophorectomy ...”
My doctor recommended a total hysterectomy and oophorectomy when I was age 38. As a result, I required hormone therapy to prevent early onset menopause for many years. When my (male) gynecologist would no longer prescribe commercial brand hormones, I began to suffer not only the discomfort of hot flashes, but difficulty with anxiety, with focus and joint inflammation and pain that was very difficult to tolerate, due to hormone deficiency.
Bioidentical hormone therapy, that is individually compounded for me, allowed me to continue to work and support myself, and to continue to enjoy social activities which would have been impossible due to joint pain. As a woman, I feel that not only my quality of life but ability to survive was improved by this form of therapy. The quality of life issue for women should be taken very seriously, though they may be hard to appreciate by men or by those who have not yet experienced the need for hormone therapy. Women should not be needlessly subjected to suffering that would result if hormone therapy were removed. This form of necessary care should be preserved.

“Not only has cBHT greatly improved my life by giving me more...”
Not only has cBHT greatly improved my life by giving me more balanced emotion and energy through menopause, as well as helping my hair, my skin and my nails, but it has helped balance my vaginal flora that shifted during menopause sending me into a vicious cycle of urinary tract infections. After being on an additional vaginal cream, My UTI symptoms seem to have taken a backseat. I cannot imagine where I would be without both of these therapies. I am an extremely sensitive individual to many treatments out there, and I hope that I am able to keep the ability to choose something catered specifically to me. I don't want to introduce more into my body than what is needed. Doing so has caused diverse side effects many times before. It is important to me to listen to my body and give it just what it needs... not more. We should absolutely be able to choose and I hope the FDA recognizes this.

I've had no side effects, only a wonderfully, enlivening effect. My skin has maintained far more elasticity, my muscles are maintaining, and my overall vigor is of a woman 10-15 years younger than my friends who have not used cBHT. I sleep well and my mood is even and positive.

Bioidentical hormones have made my life so much better than before. After a hysterectomy at age 51, I felt lifeless and had no sexual desire at all. Thanks to my amazing doctor, I am, at 67, still energetic and vigorous. I don't know what I would do without my hormones. It would be criminal to make them illegal for no reason whatsoever.

I had so many symptoms due to menopause, hot flashes, night sweats, a fuzzy brain, sleepless nights, anxiety (which was new to me) etc. Once I started taking bioidentical hormones, all my symptoms went away. I am on a low dose of these hormones and I see my doctor each year and I'm healthy and happy.

I was down to almost no hormones and an emotional wreck. I even had thoughts of suicide several times. Since being on a compounded bioidentical hormone therapy, I am feeling like myself again and completely balanced. No thoughts of suicide whatsoever. And my family is at peace again.

cBHT has definitely affected my life for the better. Before getting on them I could hardly do anything. So tired and depressed to tears. They have helped my bones and renewed some of my youth. I am 76 years old. I don't have to be concerned about cystic breasts, that were caused by tradition hormones, turning into cancer. Please continue to give us a choice which hormones we choose to take. The bioidentical ones will always be my choice.

I am so grateful for my bioidentical hormones. They are the foundation of my health. I don't suffer from hot flashes or dryness anymore. My bones are healthy and strong. I weight train and exercise, I eat healthy, but my bioidentical hormones are essential to my well-being. I look and feel younger than women 10 years younger than me. I have had no adverse side effects.

Bioidentical hormones have helped tremendously with my quality of life. They have helped to increase my bone density and helped me to not suffer from hot flashes and painful vaginal thinning and dryness. They increased my sexual drive and I overall feel so much better and more confident. I couldn't be happy without them.

I had to have a total hysterectomy at the age of 38. Oral hormone replacement therapy didn't work for me. I was an emotional wreck, had no energy and was at risk for developing osteoporosis and heart disease because of my low hormone levels. Implantable pellets became available and saved my life, literally. When those became unavailable, I tried oral tablets again with a negative result. I now use compounded creams and have a normal, wonderful healthy life. I am 61 years old with NO osteoporosis, heart issues, etc. This cBHT has kept me healthier than if I hadn't had it. Please keep this available for patient use.

My Dexa scan results at age 70 shows normal bone density with low fracture risk. Before using cBHT my Dexa scan showed I was osteopenic. I do not use any medications for bone density except Vitamin D3.

For 12 years, I had increasingly uncomfortable symptoms, including restless leg syndrome, anxiety, digestive problems, night sweats, irritability, low energy, brain fog and rosacea. I sought cBHT because my restless leg syndrome, rosacea and brain fog were increasing and medication resistant. Since starting cBHT, my symptoms slowly improved. I now have no symptoms except restless leg and rosacea, and those are slowly subsiding. I cannot emphasize enough the positive effect on my physical, emotional and mental health.
