Haha Tc!

It's inequitable that vaginal oestrogen is only prescribed selectively. However I think it's good that in UK our hormone treatments are properly regulated - and prescribed by a doctor who knows our medical history. The problem lies in education and the postcode lottery which may drive some (privileged!) women to buy when they are abroad.

Maybe Spanish residents have more of a consultation with the pharmacist selling the HRT over there?

As for selling it on ebay - I saw that having read on here - this is just totally unethical. What is that woman doing selling Estriol cream on ebay for 13.99? How very dare she profit from other women's vaginal atrophy. I wonder where she is getting it from. That is absolutely appalling making money from prescription medication maybe obtained for her own use but isn't using it....? There can be no reasonable explanation for this....

riverrunsfree - I hope you manage to get a proper prescription and get some relief soon - you are entitled to this on NHS!!!!
