I’ve been taking Lenzetto for 3 months and am getting on well. I’ve just switched to administering it to my inner thigh (look after children and don’t want to risk them coming into contact with it). I’ve got it into my head that it now won’t be as effective. Probably my head being stupid! Saying that my hips have started to get painful again so maybe it’s not? Also, is it better to have it in the morning or evening - or does it really not matter? Think I’m overthinking things but would appreciate any help. Thanks.

Hi cowsaregreat
Any change in application site may slightly affect the amount absorbed and whether you notice this or not will depend how sensitive you are to slight changes. You haven't said where you applied it before? Skin on the inner thigh is very thin so absorption should be good!
As long as application site remains consistent - ie you stay with that site - all should be well...
Yes probably overthinking - you would not experience painful hips soon after changing! Any effects like this from changing dose would take longer to be apparent....
Glad you're getting on well generally anyway :)

Morning. Over thinking: probably ::)
What is your contact with children? If you apply on your arms then wear a blouse?

Thank you for your reply. I used to use it in the morning, on my inner arm but I look after children and rarely wear long sleeves so find having to cover it for an hour a problem (sounds ridiculous I know). I’m wondering whether maybe to try using it at night as that’d obviously solve that issue! I don’t know anyone close to me who are using it so have no one to chat to about it!
