Is Sandrena the same as Divigel ?
« on: January 22, 2018, 03:16:42 PM »
Hello all,

I'm getting fed up with Oestrodose which gives me the flattest mood ever. I can't find Estrogel where I live, but apparently Divigel is available. Is it the same thing as Sandrena but under a different name ?

I have googled this and it does appear to be the same thing but I can't find a definitive answer sorry.  Hopefully someone else will come along who knows more.

Kkay, I've never heard of it.  If you can't buy proper Oestrogel where you live, could you mail order it from a reputable pharmacy?

Not without a prescription from a UK or US doctor, and I don't live in either. :(

Sandrena contains a higher concentration of oestrogen for a given amount of gel and I would suggest to anyone who is having problems with absoprtion from estrogel/oestrodose - and having to apply large amounts of gel, to change to Sandrena and see if things improve. Kkay - sounds like a plan....
