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.

Before I started taking Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy I was irritable, did not sleep well, and had severe hot flashes/sweating, which was quite distracting during business meetings and social events. I am so grateful to have this customized therapy that improves my life dramatically.

Hormone replacement has significantly improved my quality of life. Without them I was suffering from anxious, irritable and depressed moods as well as weight gain and sleeplessness. I am so grateful for these hormones!

BHT has given me relief from hot flashes, better sleep and a calmer mood. I cannot take the hormones that my insurance covers, although I have tried three times. I always had bad side effects from them. I am so grateful for bioidentical hormones. I am 72 and have taken them off and on for 30 years.

cBHT has vastly improved my quality of life. Before cBHT, my hormone imbalance was causing intolerable physical and mental suffering. Without continued use of cBHT, I will needlessly return to a state intolerable suffering.

“Compounding bioidentical hormones have made my life so much ...”

Compounding bioidentical hormones have made my life so much better by giving me energy, helping with brain fog and balancing mood swings. To be honest, it has also helped with vaginal dryness. Women need to know that there is help and we don't have to suffer all the night sweats and mood swings. I feel younger, happier and able to keep up with my kids. I highly recommend BHT to anyone suffering from menopause symptoms. Who doesn't want to stay younger, longer?

“cBHT has enabled me, a menopausal woman, to maintain an inti...”

cBHT has enabled me, a menopausal woman, to maintain an intimate life with my husband and to maintain my physical as well as brain health. My decision to take cBRT was made in concert with my medical doctor in order for me to maintain optimum health. The only safe and viable option for cBHT as well as many other medicines is to have them formulated at a compounding pharmacy. These medicines are personalized to fit individual needs. This is something that standard, one-size-fits-all medications, can never achieve. It is not the business of the FDA to interfere in the very personal relationship and decisions a patient makes with his or her medical doctor. I CANNOT funtion adequately without my compounded HRT and will not allow it to be taken away.

All women should do it. This is the best thing for a woman if she is going through menopause. It changed my life. I have done it for 10 years and am extremely satisfied. It would be a crime to take it off the market.

Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy makes me feel younger. My mind, at 62, is much clearer than it was prior to using HRT. My skin has renewed elasticity and I have more energy and vitality now. I am more passionate; in every way. 62? Not anymore.

“After having a hysterectomy, my MD gynecologist surgeon trie...”

After having a hysterectomy, my MD gynecologist surgeon tried to regulate my hormones with injections, patches, gels and creams. They all failed to regulate or balance my hormones. He then referred me to a ND to try bioidentical hormones. THEY WORK! I've been balanced because of them and my bloodwork is an accurate snapshot of what is happening in my body. I'm so grateful for bioidentical hormones, and the personal approach to how my specific body is working because of them.

“I had a complete hysterectomy at 27. I used to take estrates...”

I had a complete hysterectomy at 27. I used to take estratest pills. I started feeling bad about five years ago. I had blood work done and found out that the pills were doing nothing and not helping at all. I have been on HRT for about four years now and it has saved my life. I can sleep better and don't have sweaty legs at night anymore. I can think better. I am not irritable anymore and don't have hot flashes all day long. I was miserable before. Now I feel like myself again.

“Due to my medical conditions, I had to get a hysterectomy at...”

Due to my medical conditions, I had to get a hysterectomy at the age of 34. This means I had to be on hormone replacement therapy for quite awhile in order to maintain my bone health, and simply trying to mimic what my body lacks due to the surgery. I''ve been taking cBHT for years and the cream seems to work seamlessly and helps me to maintain my normal way of life, while feeling more confident that what I put on my body on a daily basis is a bioidentical hormone that is tailored specifically to my needs. I really hope that I will be able to have the choice of continuing to use cBHT, if I can do so. Thank you!

There are not words to express how grateful I am to be taking cBHT. I will NEVER stop them. I am 65 years old and have the vitality, emotional stability and mental alertness of a healthy 35 year old. I have a well informed physician and have labs drawn every 4 months to monitor levels.
