for some reason it wont let me read the BBC thread

[Sparrow]

There is an article on the BBC News website about this.

Sorry can't do links on my phone but it's easy to find.

This makes me so angry! I would not be having a menopause at 25 had I'd been looked after probably after the birth of my daughter, now I have ostriprina and ME to all thanks to that so I'm trying to use hrt to help with problems cause by this.I'm not happy.

It is happening again, it is the mm website ,just keeps telling me someone has posted and to review my post,but when i click on the link takes me back to this warning

I think it's meant to be this:

[Dr. Heather Currie]

The summary on the British Menopause Society link is really useful and remember our decision tree at www.menopausematters.co.uk/tree.php where you can click on a red box most relevant to yourself and see the HRT products. It is usually possible to find an equivalent regimen to those not currently available.

Thanks for that Dr Currie!

[Butterfly22]

Thank you 😊

[jaycee]

Ahh, thank you Jenna, read it

That is a useful link, but unfortunately some progesterones have no equivalent - it would be trial and error and we all know how changing regimes can start a whole can of worms.

I have just seen this on the FB VA discussion   https://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-britain-eu-medicines/no-deal-brexit-could-deepen-europes-shortage-of-medicines-experts-idUKKCN1V20FQ?utm_source=applenews

Kathy Abernethy - Menopause Specialist has just been on the ITV lunchtime news, saying find out about equivalents and also leave enough time when putting prescription in, but said no one really seems to know the cause of it x

That relies on the GP's willingness to let us have a prescription early. I made such a request but they have only allowed me one for 16 patches to cover the shortfall from my last prescription which I still haven't got (pharmacy still out of stock now).

I get one box of 8 at a time and replace patch every 3 days, so can't see how I will ever get ahead on having any back up either x
