Yes please! If you make another post you can send pm's and I'll contact you. I am prescribed HRT and seeing the doc so it's OK for me to receive this. Would like to try adding a bit instead my patch slivers which I use to top up my dose

I'd be interested and to send postage via PayPal to you ? I've been palmed off with oestrodose yet again and resent paying £30 privately for oestrogel each time they do this x

I only ever seem to get the oestrodose these days too, although I don't seem to notice any difference with it, apart from current bottle that has a dodgy pump and it seems runnier.

Hi
What is the difference between oestrodose and oesteogel?
I prefer oestrogel and think its absorbs better.

I was on the hunt on Friday for oestrogel but had to give up. Was told by numerous pharmacies that oestrodose is all they are receiving now. I could tell a difference and I've only been on it a short time x

PHarmacy told me to specifically put oestrogel NOT oestrodose, which I do and I STILL get oestrodose!
Oestrodose has to be weaker yet the label says the same strength as oestrogel? Somebody lying to us?

Hi again Mamachunk - you are very kind to offer to send these to other women but on reconsidering as mentioned in my pm I don't want to try these after all, and if you have been prescribed them then perhaps best to keep them. As I also mentioned, it's probably not a good idea for members to give out personal details like name and address to complete strangers on the internet, as you are a very new member (albeit with the best of intentions!). Sorry to pour cold water on your very generous offer and of course it's up to other members what they decide to you but I'm just expressing a note of caution. Maybe you would be able to meet up with someone who lives nearby for example if you give the approximate area where you live - which isn't too personal!! Also very important not to give prescribed medication to anyone who has not been prescribed it! Anyway whatever the outcome I hope you continue to feel well on you HRT regime
Take care and thanks once again!
