Hi,
I'm sure a lot of you have heard of the shortage in HRT stock, and some of us, as myself are suffering because of it.
I have the Lenzetto estriol spray on repeat prescription and since I had run out last week, rocked up to the pharmacy to pick up another one to find that they had none in stock and they're waitin for new stock toa arrive (they couldnt give me a definitive date on this).
So, I frantically looked for online pharmacies to see if they were stocking lenzetto. I found Independent Pharmacy and thankfully they had it in stock, so I've placed an order, yet it says it's processing, however the estimated delivery is today.
I'm worried they'll reject my request (since it needs to be approved). I'm peri, so my periods haven't stopped. One of the questions prior to check-out was whether my periods had stopped or not, which is irrelevant since, peri menopause is probably the most tumultuous period of the change, IT IS the change/transition and many are still having their periods.
So, yes worried they won't approve it and I'll suffer further. Since stopping last week due to the shortages, my night panic attacks and adrenaline rushes have returned and anxiety.
I wonder why there's a shortage anyway, what happened?
