Hi,
I'm struggling to understand which HRT I need to move to, to increase my dose from my current HRT being Femoston 2/10.
I have read up on this forum and understand that Oestrogen is available in tablet, patch or gel form.
However I am confused about the Progesterone side of things. I firstly spoke to a locum GP last week who said the only way to take progesterone is the coil. The practise nurse called me today and said the same thing, however she did touch upon HRT being in short supply and so I am wondering if what she is actually saying is that usually other forms of Progesterone would be available but they are currently unavailable?
The nurse said she would ask a different GP to call me tomorrow who is 'more clued up' .....
I am happy to take my HRT in any form ie patches, gels, tablets etc so my question is, is Progesterone available in a patch, gel or tablet as I am being told it is not. I would like to be able to ask the GP tomorrow for bio-identical HRT in any form but not the coil, does that sound right?
Many thanks.
