“When my menopause experience worsened, I did try to take est...”

When my menopause experience worsened, I did try to take estrogen pills but that type of therapy has always had side effects for me. When my doctor started offering bioidentical hormone therapy, I started using a cream instead. That has worked so much better for the chemistry in my body. As my hormones ebb and flow, it is easy to modify the amount of cream used to better regulate the amount. I wasn't easily able to do that with pills. Everybody's body chemistry is different and it's been nice to have therapy regulated to my individual needs at doses that can easily be controlled. This is the future of medicine.

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.
