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 don't know how I would have gotten trough the years after menopause without my compounded hormones. The hot flashes were horrible and very embarrassing. I've actually felt normal again.

Without bioidentical hormones I would not be able to sustain my pregnancies. I am progesterone deficient and without bioidentical progesterone my levels would not be high enough to sustain my rainbow baby.

Before taking my cBHT I was always tired and would wake up in the middle of the night drenched in sweat. Now I have energy and very rarely do I wake up so hot.

I was able to stop having the mood swings and hot flashes of perimenopause but now my focus is on keeping the bone and muscle mass and have a chance of building more bone and muscle I have as I continue to age.

Ohio Geneva“cBHT has greatly benefited me...”
cBHT has greatly benefited me and I am so thankful for its availability. After going on this treatment, I realize how much my body has been lacking for so many years. And as my body wasn't producing enough on its own, being able to have it prescribed to me by my doctor and have if filled in a way that is compounded specifically for me has made a profound difference in how much better I feel, in so many ways. I don't know what I would do without it!

Washington Davenport“cBHT improved my life dramatically!”
cBHT improved my life dramatically. Prior to using I couldn't sleep at night. The lack of sleep was particularly harmful because I have a long (almost 1 hour) commute to work and was feeling sleepy driving. The medication gave me long, restful sleep. Also, I don't have menopause symptoms suffered by other women such as hot flashes. I feel better over all. My life is much better because of this medication.

Ohio Lyndhurst“cBHT has been a life saver to me.”
cBHT has been a life saver to me. I have a thyroid issue. Take a compounded natural thyroid capsule along with progesterone which makes the thyroid medicine work better. Also, have used biest and progesterone for years and have aged much better. Great skin, and hair and look much younger and feel much better than many of my friends. I would be very angry if my bio-identicals were taken away after I have successfully taken them for many years. I am a healthy 80 year old.

Vaginal walls weeping blood from dryness- pain during intercourse - been using 15 years or more - no more dark discharge and no more painful intercourse. Told by an oncologist that as long as hormones applied topically - I had nothing to worry about re: cancer

South Carolina Varnville“Compounding hormones have given me relief from depression...”
I had the “normal” menopause symptoms that everyone hears about. What you may not have heard is that those symptoms and the drop in hormones can also contribute to depression, which was true in my case. Compounding hormones have given me relief from my symptoms but they’ve also given me relief from depression and that gives me hope!

After my hysterectomy I became a different person, never feeling really well. I tried the pharmaceutical synthetic replacement hormones which caused other unwanted side effects. Now I am using compounded bio-identical hormones and feel like my old self again! Please,don't take them from me!

Florida Bonita Springs“cBHT has significantly improved my quality of life.”
cBHT has significantly improved my quality of life. I am more balanced and have better sleep, increased energy, increased libido, no mood swings , improved skin. The ability to have the hormones compounded to formulas that fit your individual needs is safer and better quality medicine.

New York New York“Chemical hormones made me bloated and gave me headaches.”
Chemical hormones made me bloated and gave me headaches. Could not continue but needed relief. Without hormones I cannot sleep so I feel irritable and my hair thins. The compounded hormones from College Pharmacy are different. The Progesterone helps me sleep and the Biest(Biestriol/Estradiol) doesn't make me bloated and hair stopped falling out.

Oregon Tualatin“The compounds I'm taking have literally changed my life...”
The compounds I'm taking for menopause have literally changed my life. I was listless, depressed, angry and generally did not feel good. This compound changed all of that. I strongly encourage the FDA to leave these invaluable resources alone. They work.
Additionally, the FDA should not be restricting my individual healthcare.
