Title: Utrogestan and Estrodot
Post by: Nula on August 07, 2017, 06:46:25 PM

Hi ladies
After looping round the NHS and getting dizzy(!), I went and saw a consultant privately today and she's prescribed me Utrogestan 100mg and Estrodot patches.  My GP took me off Evorel Sequi due to migraines a couple of weeks ago.  I was wondering if anyone knew if Utrogestan and Estrodot were available on the NHS?  Not sure I can keep paying for a private prescription... ☹️
Thanks all.  Wouldn't have survived this far without this forum!!

Hello!
Yes both of those are available on the NHS and you will be able to get via your GP.

Absolutely! This is what I use Nula - have only ever had it through GP on NHS.  Have used same combo for 6 years now. Pity you had to go privately in the first place but hopefully this will become gradually less common! Hope you do well on it :)

Thanks ladies!  Really helpful as always.  I'm crossing my fingers and hoping I get on with this regime ok but feeling positive to hear that it's working for others.
