@bpaigea: The fact that a doctor or nurse cannot tell the difference between the concept of concentration versus dose is sending me😬😩 #hormones #hrt #perimenopause #healthcare #menopause
I have been using bio HRT for about 15 years. I’ve lived all over the world. ONLY here in SW Florida do I have continued probs with my scrip. Mexico..perfect. Thailand..excellent. Italy..fine. Here..nooooo

My doctor prescribed me with testosterone cream, but it’s so expensive! How are people affording $400 prescription prescriptions? Insurance won’t cover it because it’s only approved for men

Medical providers are not educated on this stuff in school. They learn this "on the job". Many times the "non-medical" community will know significantly more about health and wellness.

You’re seeing the results of an entire generation of healthcare providers not being trained on HRT. The were victims of the WHI study as much as the generation of women who got stiffed. But at this point, they need to go seek the education because it’s out there. It’s incredibly frustrating.

I have been through 3 doctors and I am just so over it. I at least get my hormones and just sadly deal with it. Some symptoms are gone but they dont dose right, mine refuses to increase or try injections because I am not absorbing. My dr wont run blood work unless I demand it and she will only do once a year and last time all my hormones were lower then the previous year and she refused to increase. I am like dr they are lower then last year oh but they are still in normal range 🤦♀️. I was paying $70 a month for compound testosterone that done nothing for me and she refused to do testosterone so I pull from my husbands vial of T and did my own research on dosing for women that have been able to get testosterone injections from their dr. Have had no major side effects. Started very low and have been on the same dose 4 months now. I have a lab who will do hormone testing put of pocket with no dr order so I will be doing that and adjust accordingly. I do feel we know more about menopause and meds for menopause then doctors do and we didnt have to go to school or financial debt for it.

I received the 1.62% gel and it's says use 1/4 pump. How do I measure 1/4 of a pump?… I'm so confused she then sent me 5mg from a compound pharmacy. I don't even know about the side effects she told there are none 😳

Omg this is happening to me as we speak. It’s pure crazy making and enough to drive anyone off the deep end chasing the right dang dose. Your video helped me more then you know cause I’m right in the middle of crazy town fighting the pharmacy and doctors office.

I just found out my compounding pharmacy interpreted my doc’s prescription for 1mg E2/E3 troche (.5/.5 for a total of 1mg) as 1mg E2 + 1mg E3 = 2mg. I took this dose for a week, it being double the prescription and double the amount I was previously taking, and felt quite off. Mystery solved as to why. 🙄

Girl, do one of the online providers like MIDI, they’re amazing, zero issues and I love my nurse practitioner. She pretty much goes by my symptoms and lets me try different types of hormones and delivery systems until I got the one that my body loved the most. Now I just ordered the prescription online and pick it up at Walmart.

I switched to injections. O.4 of a ml which she said would be “ 2mg” a week. ( we would move up from there) I knew there was a problem when I only got 2 1/2 shots out of a 50mg/ml vial. No wonder my hair was coming out in hand fulls😳

I have no faith in the medical community. Especially when they call it a medical practice. Which means they are just practicing on us. We all need to be equipped to be our own doctor as we know our body better than they do.

HeyDoc :
So what I would do if you can email her said how it was sent wrong and what you need exactly. I do this with all my doctors exact pharmacy the days I need it for and prescription amount. They see so many patients makes it easy in everyone. Plus email everyone has the copy and reference back to it. I have some controlled substances and things can get mixed up and testosterone is one of them bc it can be abused and how little you need just write what happened

Big difference in the therapeutic dosing and optimal dosing. Sandy Krakowski on Facebook have some great information on HRT that really eliminates the gas work

I took a 2 year break of trying to find help because of the difficulty of getting things to work. I’m too tired to chase and convince. It shouldn’t be this hard, and a waste of thousands of dollars for nothing to work.
