You would really hope that your endocrinologist would know what other options were available...?? :-\
Perhaps they should be consulting their colleagues?
But congrats on restarting, hope something gets sorted out for you. :)

Congratulations.
I inject delestogen. 20 mg/ml is available at the pharmacy I go to. 40mg/ml has not been available for a year or so.

I got it from Walgreens. They needed three days to get it from a warehouse or something.

So I really lucked out I found a pharmacy that has it available and it is even close to my home. And I have taken my first injection today, it has been 3 years since I went off of HRT because of some other medical problems and I am sooo happy to be back on the road.

I am happy for you.
I go to a Walgreens my primary owns. They treat a lot of trans.
