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.

Prior to taking bioidentical hormone therapy, I felt horrible and definitely could not sleep. I could not sleep for over eight years until I started the bioidentical hormone therapy. It saved my quality of life.

“I am a 52 year male with complete exhaustion , memory impair...”

I am a 52 year male with complete exhaustion , memory impairment , weight gain and low libido. Upon blood testing my testosterone was at 70 which on the extreme low end of test ranges. I was placed on bioidentical compounded cream testosterone cream and within four weeks all symptoms had dramatically improved and I was able to return to work and resume an active life style. I am an absolute proponent of male hormone replacement therapy with bioidentical compounded products.

“Never get a hysterectomy without investigating all your opti...”

Never get a hysterectomy without investigating all your options. My doctor did not inform me of my options and just cut me open. Personally I believe he did that because I was on state funded medical assistance and since they paid, he opted for the most expensive surgery. Hence, I had all my parts removed. I was only 38. The side effects of not having proper hormone balance was an eye opening experience. I was miserable. Hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, appetite swings and on. After EDUCATING myself I learned good nutrition and a more natural way of life was the most beneficial for sustaining happiness, peace and contentment. Those three words the government nor big business wants anyone to have except only them. Why? Greed, selfishness and demonic.

It has allowed my doctor to give me a more precise dosage of hormone for my hypothyroidism when other brands did not have the incremental dose I needed. It has helped with fatigue, hair loss, digestion and so much more.

My brain works better. I sleep better at night. I am more tolerable to be around. Hormones have made such a huge impact on my life - mentally, emotionally and physically. Please don't take away bioidentical hormones!

Synthetic estrogen and progesterone were making me sick. When I stopped taking them, I felt better. When I started talking bioidentical estrogen and progesterone I experienced a good mood, good energy level, weight loss and I was able to sleep. The synthetic estrogen and progesterone did not give me any of these positive effects.

I sought answers from a skilled, practiced NMD regarding signs of perimenopause. My husband and I could no longer tolerate my erratic moods or hot flashes. When my doctor suggested cBHT, I was open to the idea. That decision was a game changer. I quickly experienced a sense of balance physically and emotionally without side effects. I am post-menopausal and living well.

“My body feels like my body without the symptoms of menopause...”

My body feels like my body without the symptoms of menopause, post-menopause. The most noticeable benefit is the secession of hot flashes and no dryness. I feel much better about using a more natural bio-identical form of hormone replacement. I would never want to use the Big Pharm "Premarin," etcetera, if it's still around, for several reasons- abuse to the mares being one.

“After having my second child I was having some major issues ...”

After having my second child I was having some major issues getting my cycle and mood regulated. I didn't want to take synthetics because of some weight issues I had when I previously took them. My doctor recommended me to take bioidenticals for a few months and then titrate off. It helped greatly and I was able to get back into my prebaby rhythm and my cycle was back on track.

“Tried all forms of prescribed pharmaceutical hormones for ye...”

Tried all forms of prescribed pharmaceutical hormones for years and my body either didn't absorb or had negative reactions to them. Found a doctor who would prescribe compounded hormone replacement and I have had positive life changing results and never want to go back to standard pharmaceuticals. My body has required special formulations and the compounding of these has allowed them to cater to my body's needs.

I can now function, due to cBHT. Before that, my symptoms were so bad I couldn't function. I care about what I put in my body and am very sensitive. I have multiple food allergies. Using a compound pharmacy, I can have any allergies removed. I want to continue to have the right to choose what I put into my body.
