Perhaps a Life Saver!

“Perhaps a Life Saver!”

Have always had thyroid and hormone issues. Finally found a physician who cared enough to spend some time and look through my issues. We discovered, among other things, that I am a Factor Five Lyden patient. This greatly increases the possibility of strokes especially with traditional hormone treatment. After switching me to bio-identical HRT, the majority of my hormone issues were eliminated and I felt like a new person. I am forever grateful to this physician who possibly spared me from a stroke (my 28 year old nephew did have a stroke due to Factor Five). To remove this form of HRT treatment could be dangerous to many women. We should always have the option to chose what option is most beneficial to each individual.

Hear their stories. Protect their own words. Protect their access to compounded medicines.

On this page, we can only touch on the data that demonstrates the importance of compounded medicines to the lives of millions of people in this country. While the decision to take this vital therapy from patients and physicians might be profitable for big pharmaceutical companies, it will be disastrous for the millions of patients that those same pharmaceutical companies cannot serve!

We encourage the appropriate committees in both the House and Senate to hold hearings on this critical issue.
