with the only place i know to get estrogen being 100miles away one way and bad scheduling and my insurance just being all around slow for everything, i ran out of pills and it might be a while before i get more, i want know what may be the effects of this along time and if i should rely push to get more soon or if its not that bad to wait till i have a better source 

Hi Alicia,

Sorry to hear you've run out of your meds. If I read your post correctly, you are only on E?

The same thing has happened to me before, and I was mortified. I did start on both E and T blocker at the same time. I ran out of E once and could not get E for almost a week. I was not too worried because to me, stopping T was more important. T does more damage to us girls.

To answer your question. In my opinion, it is not a train smash, IF, only for a short while, but try to stay regular on your meds. Any time that you stay off your meds, it is like like taking a backwards step, IMO. Let's just call it the yo-yo effect. Not really what you want.

Have you spoken to your endo about going on some form of T blocker?

They say with age comes wisdom. I now ensure that I have enough E to see me through two months at least. I only take E now and have gone off the T blocker seeing that I recently had an orchidectomy. At least one less pill to worry about.

I hope you will come right with your meds soon.

thanks for your reply
Yea i only take E and i been wanting talk to them about blocker, imma try get more stuff soon i was just wondering if their was anything permanent/severe to be concerned of, and thanks again hope so 2 ^^

Since you're not on an androgen blocker the effects of a short time missing estrogen (may) probably be mostly psychological. In the long run a couple days isn't going to matter when the effects take months to develop.
