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.

When I had gone off of birth control pills, my hormones were going crazy & I had headaches, cramps, and depression. A nurse practitioner got me on bio-identical progesterone and it helped my hormones back to a good balance.

Oklahoma Shawnee“Hashimoto's patient”
I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's in 2018 by a Functional Doctor. He prescribed Nature Throid which I took until the recall. Then I switched to Amour. My hair began falling out excessively again and my blood work showed an imbalance in T3 and T4.. My doctor recommended a compounded T3 and T4 prescription. I cannot get it locally so I either drive an hour one way to pick it up or have it mailed. My hair has stopped falling out excessively. This compound is important to my health and I am thankful for it.

Oklahoma Oklahoma city“Can’t practice without compounding!”
I work with many people that the fillers in the traditional prescription medications cause negative side effects. It is imperative to have compounding options for them. In addition, many of the options available are in too high of doses and I can start them with much smaller doses easily. Compounding has been a blessing to so many of my patients and if this option disappears it will cause many people to suffer without hope!

Ohio Dalton“I was in Pre-menopause stage at 31 years old”
I was in Pre-menopause stage at 31 years old... My doctor started me on progesterone therapy. Within the next year later I got pregnant, and was able to successfully deliver a beautiful, healthy baby girl. Five years later it is still making a huge difference in my life. My menses is much more manageable, my hot flashes are non existent, and I'm sleeping much better. The therapy has been a wonderful addition to my life!

Oregon Salem“Testosterone replacement following Prostate cancer”
Testosterone replacement following Prostate cancer treatment has been a profound improvement in my life. I had not rebounded to normal levels after treatment with an awful impact on my life. Now I can be at a healthy level enabling me to bettered physically, emotionally, and cognitively. Frightening to possibly not continuing treatment.

I started BHRT about 2 years ago, after suffering from a host of perimenopausal symptoms: Fatigue, mood issues, sleep issues, etc. I feel vibrant, happy, and have a balanced mood, sleep well, and feel better than ever. I am so grateful to have BHRT as an option, and will never stop taking it.

Rebecca S.
Indiana Bloomington“I am on estrogen patches to prevent migraines”
I am on estrogen patches to prevent migraines. As a person with ovaries and a uterus, I therefore need to take some form of progesterone with it. The regularly prescribed Prometrium 100 mg made me absolutely miserable. I was on it for six months and was constantly tired, weepy, and depressed. Compounded progesterone at the 55 mg dose has all benefits and none of the side effects.

South Carolina Varnville“Menopause symptoms eased with compounded hormones”
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!

Sarah D.
Colorado Avon“Life significantly improved with cBHT”
I could not imagine going back to living without cBHT. My energy used to be extremely low, mood swings, terrible monthly menses and heart palpitations. After adding low dose0 cBHT to my daily regimen, my energy is stable and elevated to meet life demands, periods are much better and heart palpitations have ceased.
I will ONLY take the Compunded version and would NEVER take the pharmaceutical version.
Thank you,
Sarah T Davis

South Dakota Sioux Falls“Saved me from horrible hot flashes!”
I was sitting at an outdoor Beach Boys concert. It was hot already, but my hot flashes made it almost unbearable! I was miserable. It lasted for about 2 weeks and when I found out about cBHT it didn't take long to feel so much better and the hot flashes are gone and never to return. That to me is unbelievable! More women need to know about this. It would save having a miserable life versus being comfortable and alive again...and some marriages too.

After 18 months of taking cBHT my bone density improved 32% in my lumbar spine and 12.9% in my right hip. I previously had osteoporosis but now have osteopenia. I was encouraged to start Forteo 2 years ago but I improved my bone density without daily injections or any other osteoporosis medication.
