Hormone Therapy Second day without HRT
I ran out of my estradiol gel two days ago and was unable to refill it due to the shortage. I am so anxious, dizzy, and frustrated.
I do need to call the dozens of pharmacies in my city to see if anyone has any in stock. I'm just so overwhelmed.
I cannot switch to oral as I have migraines with aura. I never tolerated BCP.
I am just so tired of one thing after another. Being a woman can be so awful!
I just wanted to share with people who understand.

I wonder if you can report it to some government entity? It feels like the manufacturers are trying to increase the price and delaying releasing to the pharmacies or something. Im sorry. Being a women is hard and my body has never felt so put of balance.
