After my hysterectomy at age 38, I started Vivelle-Dot and had major weight gain, felt sick all the time and other horrible side effects. A friend told me about bioidentical hormones and they changed my life. I lost weight, felt better, my face cleared and now I feel great at age of 58. I don't know what I would do without them. They are a life saver. They also keep me looking and feeling young. I feel I would be miserable without them and it scares me to think that they could take them away.

When I started taking cBHT I noticed my moods evened out- no more hot flashes or night sweats. And vaginal dryness went away.

One size doesn't fit all. My husband who is 200 lbs takes1 1/2 gr of thyroid medication. I'm 100 lbs and I now take 2 gr of thyroid. For the first ten years I took 3 gr. It has greatly increased our endurance & over all well being.

I have been taking NP Thyroid for a few years now and it has definitely improved my quality of life. I have more energy, less anxiety and no longer have a racing heart rate. I am so happy that my Naturopath prescribed it for me. I feel good knowing that it's made from bioidentical ingredients since I tend to live a healthy lifestyle as much as possible.

I was in the worst hormone hell with 40 extra lbs on me, severe perimenopause, severe PMS and sleep apnea (77 episodes of not breathing overnight). My gynocologest put me into estrogen dominance twice. A saliva test showed that I had so much in my system which was causing all the negative symptoms. It took a long time to get a good balance, but at 69 and 140 lbs, plus teaching pilates for 17 years, I'm doing great. I take my troche every night without fail along with my capsule of progesterone. PLEASE DON'T LET THEM STOP MAKING COMPOUNDED HORMONES. I wouldn't last long without them. I want my "quality of life" to remain the same.

These hormone treatments, prepared in a clean pharmacy facility, have brought me back to feeling like myself. As I went through perimenopause, and then became menopausal, I had side effects of night sweats and weight gain. I also felt out of sorts with my mood. With the help of these hormonal replacements, I feel good. I have peace of mind that they provide a more natural way of addressing my body's needs, while still maintaining a high level of quality. They are created especially for me, ordered by my physician who writes the prescription specifically for me, to meet my personal needs.
I also take a natural form of thyroid medicine, prepared in a clean pharmacy, that addresses not only T4's but also T3's and provides a more holistic approach to my hypothyroidism.
Please do not take these medicines away. Please be more open minded about this. I believe that many people, besides myself, benefit from these medicines.

My menopause symptoms were unbearable. I experienced every possible symptom- hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, loss of libido, weight gain, insomnia, etc. Within 2 days on the cBHT, I was back to myself and all the symptoms were gone. cBHT saved my life and my marriage.

cBHT has helped me stay balanced and active since I started in 2007. Prior to that I was having difficulty at work with mood swings and adjusting to menopause. Once during my time on cBHT, another doctor prescribed a non cBHT testosterone and I found it had negative affects on my life that I don't experience on cBHT.

I have been on hormone replacement via pellet for several years, and it has greatly benefited my hormonal well being. No hot flashes or irritability. Prior to this, I was using creams and pills, which were not effective distribution methods, causing spikes and valleys in my hormone levels. Instead of putting restrictions on compounded hormone replacement, I want to se the FDA require insurance companies to cover most of the cost.

These bioidentical hormones have helped me lose weight, sleep, lessen my migraines and lessen my hot flashes. After I had a hysterectomy, my doctor wanted me to see if I could go without hormones. I was miserable. I had horrible hot flashes, migraines, and could not sleep. I need to be on a low dosage the rest of my life!

My gynecologist, Dr. Debra Wilson, suggested and prescribed my compound hormone therapy. She was concerned about the skin tissue of my vaginal area cracking due to dryness and was worried that infection may set in. I also had fierce hot flashes. cBHThas altered my life. I no longer have above issues and I live a fulfilling life at 57 years of age.

I am taking bioidentical hormones because I have a blood disorder that prevents me from taking synthetic hormones. The bioidentical hormones have eliminated my chronic migraines, improved my aged skin, and given me more energy and clarity of mind. I have had zero negative reactions.

I have Lichen scelrosus in the vaginal area and use the hormone cream and also a steroid cream.
I pay for this with my own money as Medicare does not pay without going through paper work after being turned down. I claim my expenses on my taxes at end of year. It is very important to me to have a good compound mix for delicate skin. I also purchase probiotics that I trust from a compound drugstore.
