How many pumps (doses) in 80g container of Estrogel?
« on: February 05, 2019, 09:57:43 PM »
Hello everyone

I'm going away on a fieldtrip for two and a half months and I'm trying to work out how many 80g containers of Estrogel I need to take with me. Does anyone know how many pumps are in each of them? I take three pumps a day.

Thank you!

Hi there - each pump contains 1.25 mg gel so an 80 g tube contains 64 doses (pumps). Your field trip sounds intriguing?!

If you use 3 pumps a day then one canister will last for 3 weeks.

So for 2.5 months you will need 3 canisters. Take one more to be on the safe side x

Thank you very much Hurdity and Dotty. I'm terrified of having luggage lost or confiscated as I can't deal with the thought of dealing without the Estrogel.

I'm working in Mexico. It's my third trip there. It'll be intense, and the last thing I need is to be dealing with meno symptoms!

Thank you both x
