“S/P hysterectomy and BSO”

I had my uterus and both ovaries removed at the age of 35. I tried many different pharmaceutical pills and creams. I did different combinations. I tried no hormones at all. My skin and hair looked terrible. My brain was always in a fog and I physically felt awful. The only thing that has helped me feel normal is my compounded hormones. I don’t know how I would have survived these last 12-plus years without my hormones. I feel amazing. My hair and skin look great. My brain works as well as it did before my hysterectomy. As long as skittles are allowed to be on the market my compound hormones should be available.

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.
