Please do not let the FDA take this option away from me. Because without this option, I will continue to suffer and be miserable each month!

I am very excited to start bio-identical hormones next week! I have gone through all the evaluations and will soon begin my first regimen. I’ve struggled with extremely heavy periods taking me to anemia and almost a blood transfusion for the last five years. I’ve tried surgery to remove polyps twice, birth-control pills and IUDs, and even consider a hysterectomy.

After undergoing surgery and being told that my only option was to have my uterus removed or go on long-term birth control I was discouraged. Both of those options can lead to complications from which I wasn’t willing to take the risk for the next 10 years before I go into menopause.

I am so grateful to have the safe alternative natural option. Please do not let the FDA take this option away from me. Because without this option, I will continue to suffer and be miserable each month!

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.

Explore our interactive map that demonstrates the importance of compounded medicines to patients all across the country. Filter these first-hand accounts by state to see just how vital compounded medicines are.
