Testosterone supplies on the NHS anywhere in UK?!
« on: July 28, 2018, 01:00:01 PM »

Hi everyone,

I have been meaning to post an update for a while as I received so much help from this forum. I am waiting for things to be a little more stable (they have been pretty good and stable for a while to be fair) as I want to give a very hopeful message on getting through this peri journey.

My current question is whether there are any testosterone supplies where you are. My NHS meno specialist has agreed I can try it (HRT wise I take Estrogel 4 pumps and 100 mg utrogestan vaginally 10 days a month) but there is none available so I am to contact her in Sept to see if there are any supplies then.

I can get it privately for £100+ appt and £30 per month but I'd rather go down the NHS route as I am pretty out of pocket already through trying to find things to help.

I'm in Herts so was just wondering if anyone has had any luck where they live? A quick look through the search facility on here suggests there have been supply issues for a long time 😞.

Thank you xx

Which testosterone are you trying to get?

Dotty - any! The lady I saw said there is none available and the one they are hoping to acquire might take months. I didn't get the names unfortunately x

Doesn't sound good.

I'm sure there must be some around because of the men who are using it. Last I heard Tostran and Testogel pump packs were available.
