“saved my life”

had two bouts of chronic illness that lasted over ten years. the first one was a gut infection that caused me to become severely underweight. I tried to go on birth control to balance my hormones again but they would cause me cyclical bacterial vaginosis which is common with synthetic birth control. When I went on bioidentical progesterone, this really saved my life. It restarted my period and it kept me healthy, helped me gain weight and increase my appetite when my gut couldn't function again yet.

Then, I became very ill after chronic exposure to toxic black mold in my home. I suffered for years before I discovered the mold. During that time, my hormones became so severely imbalanced that I needed to go back on bio-identical progesterone. I was already on birth control and that wasn't enough to regulate my hormones, which can become severely imbalanced for women exposed to toxic mold. I had severe insomnia and PMS and severely painful periods to the point that it was impacting my mental health. The bioidentical progesterone cured my insomnia and imbalances, made my PMS disappear, and continues to help drastically reduce my painful cramps now that I am healed from the mold illness and gut illness. I really rely on these medically to keep my body balanced.

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.
