Hi, Im brandy, Im new hear. I was wondering If anyone can help me. Ive been on hormones for a year and a half and want to start Injecting estrogen. My doctor says that you cant Inject estrogen but I read that you can. I ordered Progynon Depot(Injectable estrogen) from In House Pharmacy but dont know which syringes to use. from what I understand, I need a draw up filter syringe and a Inject syringe, but I dont know the sizes. Can anyone hear help me? I would also like to know If anyone hear has ordered from In House Pharamcy because I want to know the quality of there hormones. I also heard that there Is on line pharmacys that have a doctor on site that can evaluate you and right you a perscription. Does anyone know If this Is true? I would appreciate any help, thank you

I've been doing business with Inhouse Drugstore for about 5 years... I only had one problem with a missing shipment and they re-sent it immediately after I reported it at no charge.. They're a great company and hope they stick around. The drugs themselves come from various sources; their generic spiro comes from India and their Estrofem comes from Denmark, for instance... it should specify in the descriptions on their website.

  About injection... I have to ask if there's a specific reason why you feel the need, specifically, to inject. I'm going to assume that you're doing this on your own (like I have the whole time.) I think that taking hormones under your tongue, by gel or patch are far safer than getting the right size syringe, dosage and precise placement of the injection. I think the risks here are greater than any perceived advantages over oral or topical administration. BTW, if I had to do it over again, I would have found a TS friendly endocrinologist to work with a long time ago.

......Just my two cents :-)

DIY HRT is not something you want to do,  it is dangerous and against the TOC.

QuoteRule 8. The discussion of hormone replacement therapy(HRT) and it's medications are permitted, with the following limitations:

A. Advocating for or against a specific medication or combinations of medications for personal gain is strictly prohibited.
B. Discussing the means to acquire HRT medications without a prescription, and self medication without a doctors care is prohibited.
C. Discussing dosages is strongly discouraged to prevent information obtained on this site from being used to self medicate.

We can not in good conscience condone the self administering of these medications. Not only may self medication be illegal, but HRT medications can cause serious health problems, and many have the potential for life-threatening side effects that can only be detected and prevented with proper medical supervision.

Barring that you need to consult your doctor, as they may have a specific gauge they want you to use.

Thank you Janet for reminding us all of the Site's rules.  It's not like we haven't seen it enough. 

Thanks Pebbles & Jessica Could you both please e-mail me, because Im not much for posting.

Ahh the "abstinence only" concept applied to self medication.

And every bit as successful...
