Sandrena is more concentrated so you need less of it to achieve the same dose. It's in sachets 'though so perhaps less convenient than the pump (good for travel 'though). I've not used Sandrena myself but I think I've heard on here from other women that it can be a bit sticky and takes longer to dry?

Oestrogel is body identical i.e more natural, Sandrena is synthetic

Please note: that's not correct. Both Oestrogel and Sandrena are body identical, i.e. both contain estradiol, body identical oestrogen. Sandrena contains a higher amount of estradiol which is why the dosage range for it is lower.

I loved Sandrena when I was on it....in hindsight, perhaps I should've just changed the prog, but went back into Femoston Conti...which is doing me just fine at the mo...I might add...x
