Hello, has anyone managed to get the old style oestrogel estradiol bottles from their pharmacy or am I flogging a dead horse and need to be prescribed something new? The pic bottle on the left, as my symptoms have flooded back with the new style.

I'm no help on advice on getting the old shape bottle but what I've done is to buy some cheap jewellers weighing scales to check the dosage that the new style is dispensing. 

I'm on 3 pumps, I measure each one as it is dispensed and then finish off with a part-pump to give me the full 3.75g that the bottle should have dispensed. Its all a bit fiddly but I find the dispensed amount can vary considerably (mainly under by anywhere between 10-20%) and at least this way I get the full amount.

Good luck with your quest!
