Hi can anyone tell me if there's more than two brands of patch, I have had two prescriptions from the doctors and each time the chemist has said they can't get hold of them. Been back to doctors and now she's said I'll have to have a oral tablet instead. I really don't want a tablet that's y I asked for the patch. I still have periods so don't know if that makes a difference.

Hi Amanda

If you go into the menu on this site and look at the treatments section it lists them in the HRT preparations part x

You can have an Oestrogen only patch with utrogestan for the progesterone x

Hi, I have Evorel patches which come in conti, sequi, or oestrogen only.
There shouldn't be any problem getting these.

Maybe go to a different Chemist.
When I have been told by the Pharmacist that they can't get my prescribed medication I have rung the Manufacturer to ask if they have stopped producing it. Both times I was told no.
The first time was for my HRT patches and I was told to tell the Pharmacist to call them directly - I got my patches with no problem.
The second time I was told that there was plenty of stock at the wholesalers and to ask the pharmacist if they had tried to order. Before I did that I went to the other chemist where I live and they had my tablets in stock.
Hope you get what you need
