hi,

Isn't this havoc caused by that decision some time ago about pharmacies to deal with HRT now? And, as it looks, charge for it ..?

I just looked at Superdrug - never knew they offered any.. or had HRT Service!

Finally after 5 chemists I got Estriol 1mg at ASDA pharmacy. Some of the chemists didn't know Ovestin had been changed to Estriol, they said no one had informed them.

Does it say Estriol 1mg/g on your repeat now Dierdre ?  mine had changed to that. 

Maybe the changeover is being driven from the doctor's end.....so to speak !  The Ovestin boxes do have estriol 1mg in 1g written on the side a pharmacist might have to use some gumption with old stock.

Glad you got some.

Yes it's Estriol 1mg/g cream now on my repeat, same colour box and tube, the only difference is the name change. The doctors receptionist told me there is still nothing else on the market equivalent to this so nobody else is making it yet.
