Great.

From my experience of chem meno I would ensure you start with monthly injection (just gives you an out if you needed it).

Will he be starting you on the oestrogel and utro immediately??? I'm assuming so. I entered CM with no HRT add back and, with hindsight, that was a huge mistake.

Good luck...x

Yes, he’s starting me on Oestrogel and utrogestan straight away…I had wondered about that because I’ve heard that some people don’t…

He’s writing to my GP with the instructions and GP will prescribe and do the injections.

He said that I might need to book a hospital appt at Spire for the first one - they like it to be done in a hospital apparently.

Do you know how I get it? Do the GPs have it? Or do I need to get it from a pharmacy?

Thanks everyone xx

I had my first one at Spire. My GP said she would take them on after I had my first one.

But I never got to that point, as I switched to the nose spray. Got that via Spire then my GP prescribed.

So for my first injection, I was told to make the appointment at Spire with a nurse. So I did. All went fine.

Perhaps call your GP to check what is what...

Ah ok, yes, I see.

I called them today and he said “It’s do-able”, but to wait till the prescription comes through to make an appointment-hopefully Wednesday some time 🤞🏻

Thank you ☺️ Will keep you posted xx
