Title: Utrogestan Scotland..apparently now accepted on NHS
Post by: Callisto on February 09, 2023, 09:09:04 PM

Hi there fellow Scots, I spotted this and can hardly believe my eyes. Can it be true that Utrogestan is finally available in all regions of Scotland on the NHS?
I am yet to achieve it in the Lothians without going private.

That's good Callisto. It's been available in Ayrshire for a while. It's about time it was made available in all regions  :o

Thanks Songbird 💐

Though this  is yet to be proven.  I am feeling anxious at approaching GP about it as I’ve been given the brush off so many times.

 Can imagine them groaning, ‘Here she comes again, that annoying women.

 I will wait until hearing  positive stories attesting to a change of policy.
