Title: Can’t get Femoston Conti 1/5 Australia
Post by: CindyC on July 11, 2018, 10:45:29 AM

Hi Ladies  :)

OK...so after waiting 3 weeks for Chemist go get some in for me, now told there is no ETA from warehouses which means unavailable indefinitely.

Only have 10 days left and going to try and get in to see Doc about an alternative, if there is one!

I'm 57 1/2...been on Conti 1/5 for 3 1/2 yrs with no problems, was the  first HRT I'd tried after reading these forums 😊

Questions:

Anyone else in Aus had the same problem, and what alternative did you use?

Can't decide if I should try coming off it all together and see how my body/symptoms are now.  With only a few days left it would mean coming off cold turkey.  Being a low dose I'm hoping it wouldn't be too drastic! 

Any advice anyone?

Thanks in advance  :)

Just an update.

Still no Femoston 1/5 available anywhere so the closest I can get is Angeliq 1/2.

Starting pack in 2 days time, will let you know how I go! Hopefully nothing changes!  :-\
