Hello again ladies, first of all may I apologise for creating this little separate thread but I didn't want it to get 'buried' in the thread where you have all recently helped me enormously.
I have decided I need to split my dose of Estrogel, but have possibly a small problem. I currently apply at night, but will now need to apply a pump in the morning and intend applying it around 7.45 am. Trouble is, I have things of a very messy nature that I have to do on the farm first thing so I like to then pop home and have a shower before I settle down to do my paperwork for the day. I usually shower around 10.30 to 11.00.
Would it be OK to do this and would it affect the gel's absorption at all showering after it has been on for approximately 3 hours? I have googled extensively and it is not really clear if this is OK. I did find a very rambling article on the Surmeno website but it wasn't too helpful (it was very obsessed about how residual gel can come off our clothing in the washing machine when we do laundry. I could do without those kind of scare tactics, thank you)!
You very kind advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much!
