Estrogen cream

[Isosceles Gangster]

Does anyone know a decent place to pick some up? My local pct shop is sold out and my girl has been going through a rough menopause.

The VA is giving her the run around about it too, like it's vicodin or some shit.

menopause.

Really?
Why?

I am not from the States, so I am always reluctant to answer stuff like this.
I just wanted to understand why, though.

If the lady in question has been prescribed it, and how much to take, I don't understand where the obstacle would be.

You say she is menopausal, so she would have seen someone about this, and was given cream rather than patch.

Tbh, for stuff like this, I would always get it legitimately and from a pharmacy in my own country.
In whichever way it is administered, estrogen for menopause is easily accessible.

Maybe you should better explain what the problem is.
Are drugs that are prescribed so much more expensive to get from a regular pharmacy than via alternative ways?

They want to give her psyche meds as a first line... they say since she smokes 6 cigarette a day, if they gave her estrodial cream it could increase the risk of stroke. It's all bullshit... so I just want to go on grey market to get her some cream but I don't have a good source... and aipctshop is out of the cream and dash doesn't seem to have it.

It's really hard to get HRT from the VA

She doesn't have any meds.. the issues is I want cream for her...

I don't know about cream but wouldn't birth control be an option? I know you said she's past that point in life but maybe she can pickup some from a friend or family member.

Not a Dr but according to Google: Most combination birth control pills contain 10 to 35 micrograms of ethinyl estradiol, a kind of estrogen. Women who are sensitive to hormones may benefit from taking a pill that contains a dose of estrogen at the lower end of this range.
