Title: Injectable HRT
Post by: Naturally Blonde on February 09, 2009, 07:42:02 AM
I live in the U.K. I've been seeking 'injectable Delestrogen' as advised by my Endocrinologist here in the U.K. However it is not used or licenced in the U.K and therefor is not available via prescription or purchase here.

I did get a list of these from one forum member.

but they only sell it in tablet form which is not what I am seeking and in any case they are already available in tablet form via NHS prescription in the U.K. I do not want tablets.

Any information as to how I can get medication in 'injectable form' shipped to the U.K without the hassle of huge customs bills from the U.S would be helpful. Is it available in Europe, Holland? or Germany?

Hey Kiera

still okay for dinner?? :)

they ship outside the eu, if you incur a charge its 15% and £8 handling fee from royal mail.

My last delivery from one of them took 6 days

Yes! Working on getting kids *passports* (and somehow losing SO's! ;) ) Are they welcome too? Which is closer, Heathrow or Gatwick? And can we ride a train to you? lol

Does the *Queen's Royal Messenger* collect the tax upon delivery?

Ever Any Problems, Questions?
Lol Kiera
yes totally loose the SO, she wouldnt like my cooking  >:-)

They put a delivery card in the door, you pick up and pay customs and their handling charge if your unlucky enough to catch it  ;)

??? Great system! And all probably because Naturally Blond wants a "nurse" to do it?

*sheeze*
My GP would insist on having a nurse do the injection. This is what happened in the past with Gosarelin injections.

Also many thanks for the info Keira and Delgado
