I like the 20 mg/ml better than the 40 mg/ml. With the 20 I do not get sore at the injection sight for 2-3 days after an injection. The down side is it is a lot of medicine to inject and I do it over about a 2 minute time period with breaks.
I can't imagine 2 minutes with a syringe stuck in me! Here I thought 1/2 a minute was milking it

Patches and injections both deliver estradiol non-orally, considered to be the safest route.

Patches did no feminization for me. Injections changed everything and are the best delivery method for me.

Yea long as the patch stays on good it work's just as good and maybe just a little safer than shot due to the shot is an oily substance[emoji3]

https://www.susans.org/forums/index.php/topic,189624.msg1688205.html#msg1688205
and injections rather weekly... on biweekly there might be a dry phase at the end...

More like a pain in my lower back, (but not really.)  I followed the "their pea in my pod" channel on you-tube

Have my new prescription. If I buy Neofollin Injections as import in a German pharmacy it costs 120€. When I drive three hours to the Czech republic I can buy it there for 7,80€. Both is the three month supply.

That it crazy. I will take the drive tomorrow.

Same concentration I use and it isn't covered by my insurance so I pay $120 out of pocket.

Mine are once a week and once I have everything ready to go it is about a 30 second affair. All total it is about 5 minutes from start to finish. My bum (as you call it) is accustom to it a well. Easy peasy.

I am surprised how painless it is. It takes only a few minutes a week. So it is not much effort either.

I have one question:
After going through the skin it is quite easy to go through the fat tissue as well. Than there is a little resistance and I think I am than in my muscle. It is painless but I feeling like a little bit pressure. Do you have a similar feeling?

Yes, that little bit of pressure at the end is your muscle. Like you I much prefer the injections. Once a week, and don't have to think about it. With the spiro I can be off a few hours and it doesn't bother me, but with estrogen, I felt like is a missed it by a few hours, I would feel off.

Have you tried Goodrx?  Their app got me down to $96 without insurance.

Perrigo, the company that makes the generic, has advised that the 40mg/ml strength is in stock again and the 20mg/ml will be available by the end of the month.
This is not medical advice. Always consult your doctor.
