I was filled with dread at the thought of being Oestrogel less for my holidays.   :-[

I contacted the airline and airport to ask how I could keep my bottle in my hand luggage. I was told to take a prescription along with me and I had absolutely no problems.

Happy holiday  8)

Hi Daisydot

I travel 3/4 times a year just with hand luggage, the oestrogel /oestrodose bottles both fit into the 20cm hand baggage liquid bags.

80g oestrogel is classed as 80ml,  also if it makes you feel more secure put one in hold luggage as well.

When i looked on gov uk it said that you can actually have more than 100ml of any medication as ling as you carry a copy of your prescription.

Have a great time
