Since my teen years I have suffered extreme effects of hormonal imbalance which has only been effectively managed with strong birth control pills (pre-menopausal) and hormone replacement now that I am post-menopausal. Initially I used the pharmaceutical prescription hormone replacement pills but they didn't fully control my many symptoms and my gynecologist did not want me to use them for very long, due to the health dangers that they are linked to. I purposely sought out bioidentical hormone therapy, which has been extremely successful in controlling my symptoms and is customized to my particular needs. My naturopathic doctor spent over a year working with me on getting just the right balance through an iterative process of trial and measurement that enabled us to arrive where we are today with a perfect balance that has drastically improved the quality of my life, and those around me. Not having this option would literally be devastating to me and negatively impact my ability to function day to day. I am very thankful to have cBHT and advocate to have it as an ongoing option for the future.

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.
