Really positive experience with compounded hormones

I'm an older than middle-aged woman, single, living in Los Angeles who has been in perimenopause or menopause for at least 10 years. As my state and symptoms have evolved, so has my treatment, and at various points in that journey, the ease of navigating significant emotional and physical hurdles has been supported by a compounding pharmacy. Hormones are so delicate and nuanced, and recalibrating my body's needs has been a collaboration between myself, my doctors, and the pharmacies through which they procure my medication. Compounding pharmacies provide bespoke solutions to individual needs. Please allow their work to continue as is.

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.
