A manufacturing delay that has created a shortage of the injectable testosterone drug Delatestryl has left many trans men scrambling to find alternatives.

A registered nurse with the Sherbourne Health Centre's LGBT Primary Care program says users should not wait for the drug to reappear.

"They should be coming in to see their physicians or nurse practitioners because they can be switched to a different compound," says Mary Potter. "The issue is when they don't come to see us . . . they're told by the pharmacy that they just don't have it and people are waiting without the medication."

Yeah there has been this problem an FTM friend mentioned it :/ likewise there has been some shortage in injectable estrogens aswell.

It's pretty shabby really.
