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 have tried other therapies unsuccessfully. My hormone levels are now finally all within normal ranges on a compounded bioidentical replacement hormone. In fact, all of my blood work is now at ideal levels. I have a right to choose the therapies that my doctor deems right for me. My data suggests that my doctor and I have made the right decision for me in choosing a compounded bioidentical replacement hormone. The government has no right to interfere in these very personal and individualized choices.

Prior to using cBHT I was experiencing severe abdominal pain from endometriosis and ovarian cysts. I ended up having surgery, but within a couple months the pain returned. After using cBHT for a couple of weeks, the pain was gone. I continued using cBHT until I started menopause (about eight years) and didn't have any issues during that time. It worked wonders and saved me from having a hysterectomy.

Many of my patients have pulled themselves out of living a sedentary lifestyle. A sedentary lifestyle over several years is associated with increased risk for type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and premature mortality. What is much less appreciated is the high cost of physical inactivity even in the short term.

Without BHRT I can't think clearly. I have terrible hot flashes every two hours and can't sleep through the night. My hair falls out and I have painful intercourse. With BHRT all of these sypmtoms are better or gone. I need compounded progesterone with estrogen and testosterone. My symptoms are worse without bioidentical progesterone and this protects my bones as well as protects me from potential cancers.

I struggled greatly for a couple of years, with multiple frustrating, life disrupting symptoms. I had several doctors try several different things. Dr. Brouwer was the only one that got me balanced, sleeping and functioning again, with a combination of cream and capsuled compounded hormones.

As a menopausal woman, I literally had years of insomnia. I did not want to take prescription sleeping pills and over the counter solutions did not work for me. I went to a Naturopathic doctor who put me on a regime which included a compound progesterone cream. I had almost immediate relief and have been sleeping well for over two years.

I began cBHT five years ago and would never want to stop. The effects have been tremendous on my self esteem as a sensual/sexual woman. I dropped about 10 pounds in the first year- mostly around my waist. I feel healthy, spry, and energetic. I sleep eight or nine hours per night. My mood fluctuations have disappeared and so have the hot flashes. I have an extraordinary love life with my forever partner thanks to cBHT.

I can't say enough about how it has changed my life. Since 2011, I've been taking testosterone in a pellet form. It has given me the energy, clarity and focus needed to control my mood and be a nice mom and a friendly full time co-worker as a VP for a tech firm working 10 hour days. I had very little in my system for about a week and could already feel the difference. It's also helped maintain my overall mental well-being.

I appreciate being able to get the appropriate low dose of the least risky type of estrogen (c-Estriol).
And, I have had good results (relief from painful intercourse) with only twice weekly use of the vaginal suppositories that my Naturopath prescribes. Regular strength prescription and over the counter estrogens are too strong. Also, the type of estrogen (estradiol) in them poses too much of a cancer risk.

HRT is crucial to my good health and sense of well-being. In the years I've benefited from HRT, I have found the compounded formulations have created the most consistent relief of unwanted symptoms due to low estrogen levels, among other things. I am grateful to have the confidence in the quality of the products I take to balance my hormones and maintain good female health as I age.
