Thank you MaryG I'll investigate when I'm over next week xx

[Daisydot]

Update ladies.my sisters just told me the lenzetto spray container is very big because of the shape of it too so as she only has hand luggage it could be a problem,I've asked her to try at airport and explain it's medication and the Spanish may let her go on with it,usually depends on mood with them,I had the giggles today when she text me to explain all this because I know she hates any palaver with authority as do I so that's why she's my path finder  :rofl:fingers crossed if she's no luck looks like I'll be bringing back a suitcase next week lol.

[Mary G]

Daisydot, I carried two containers of Lenzetto in my hand luggage from Spain and didn't have any problems.  I showed it to the staff at the check in desk in Spain and they said it would not be a problem and it wasn't.  I didn't have any problems at the UK end either. 

[Daisydot]

She's just text me she's not happy risking it so that's fine if she's not comfy I can't expect her to do it.Im not shy though I'll try it and pleased to hear you managed it,I'll keep you posted lol.thank you MaryG.xx

Hi MaryG I managed to get the lenzetto spray but pharmacies are only allowed to order one as apparently there's a shortage at the moment so I ordered from 2 different pharmacies and was lucky enough to get two sprays.they are slightly bigger than an inhaler like a dove roll on size and fit perfectly well in my plastic airport bags.just over 10 euros each so I'll start them when I get home.I also got testosterone pump cream 2% so I'm not gonna start that until I see this nhs gynie on the 24th and see what kind if regime she recommends.i basically want the oestrogel the testosterone and the estring now so it'll be an interesting appointment.xx

[Mary G]

Daisydot, I've just replied on the other thread but well done for getting the testosterone.  Lenzetto is imported so perhaps that is why it is in short supply.

Hi i am glad this is still going. I have been just over 4 weeks on lenzetto & have struggled with side effects mostly mood but hopefully once it stabilizes I will feel better.
Maryg how many sprays did you use before you changed to a new spray. I suppose I mean how many sprays did you get out of 1 cannister? I have had about 35 sprays so far. Thanks
Well done Daisydot for getting it

[Daisydot]

Hi paisley,it says 52 sprays on the box.im not going to start it until I get some other things resolved as I don't want too many things going on that I can't monitor.
I have my appointment with private meno consultant again on Thursday 24th he's just confirmed and he's happy to now discuss adding testosterone in to the treatment.Ive arranged a private transvaginal scan for this Thursday evening so I will take the results of that with me along with my dxa scan copy,the gps didn't even have the common courtesy to include the consultant in with the results of the dxa scan which he had requested and recommended I have done,they're so damn rude doing that.im supposed to see the nhs gynie on Thursday 24th as well but I'll reschedule that one,I don't feel she has the expertise anyway so the meno follow up appointment is more important to me.
I hope your side effects stabilise soon paisley and your such a star sharing* this info with us all,it lets us make informed decisions on our route and choice of treatments.i am very appreciative of it so huge thank you xx

Hi Daisydot
I really hope all your appointments go well & thankyou about telling me how many sprays. I read on another message that you said that lenzetto was in short supply in the pharmacies in Spain so I better go & order another one quick. I hope that when you eventually start the spray it works for you just like the gel. I always get bad effects when I start any HRT. I am sensitive to anything plus I have had no HRT for over a year so starting from nothing again. I will stick with this dose for 3 months. My mistake in the past has been to change things too quickly & disrupt things even more. Thanks again xxx

[Daisydot]

Morning paisley yes I'd go order if I was you,they wouldn't order more than one spray said suppliers won't accept so maybe order your sprays from a couple of chemists so you have back up just in case.I also bought Rosalgin 500mg granules to try as I'd seen then elsewhere,you just mix a sachet with warm water and splash wash your vag area,external,to reduce any itching and soreness,have a google,you may be interested in them and they're easy for you to buy there,the pharmacies definately have a much wider range of products available for our ladybit issues I saw so many things I wanted to try but obviously I had restrictions on what I could get back definately a mega suitcase next time lol.good luck paisley and thanks so much again xx

[Mary G]

paisley, sorry I missed your post.  I didn't count how many sprays I managed to get from one box of Lenzetto but it must have been nearly 60. 

How is it going?  Don't be afraid to increase your dose if you need to and I would recommend you split the dose by about 12 hour to keep your oestrogen levels as stable as possible.

I am getting on well with it and find it very easy to use.

[paisley]

Thanks so much Maryg for replying
I will order a new one when I get nearer 50. I have used 36 sprays so far & had a couple of good days but my mood is still bad & hasn't improved much yet but have to admit that when I start or change any HRT it always hits me hard. I don't want to change anything yet until I have been on this dose for 3 months as in the past I have been too eager to change dose when things got tough but I must admit not enjoying the wonders of this HRT yet & really hoping that that these effects will lessen soon

Hello Everyone

Hope you're all bearing up under the current situation. I don't think I can bear the thought of another lockdown yet it's looking increasingly likely 

Just wanted to say that I've just been in touch with my gynaecologist for a new Estrogel prescription and he's recommended Lenzetto. I came straight on here to check it out and did a quick web search and see that it's just been made available in the UK. I am reluctant to change what works for me, but it looks like it might be easier to use that Estrogel so I'm going to give it a go. I'll post an update after I've used it a while to let you know how it goes.

Meantime, would love to hear from others who are currently using it and who can compare it to Estrogel.

Love to you all,
