[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a little confused confused by this post. Aren’t all estrogens topical these days? Patches are topical, too. Progesterone is oral, but my understanding is that they no longer give oral estrogen (I believe bc estrogen that passes through the liver increases clotting risk, but topical doesn’t). My HRT is 3 parts: oral progesterone, topical estrogen gel, and vaginal estrogen cream. But I’m glad it’s working for you, OP. [/quote] I was given oral estrogen as recently as a year ago. My new doc changed me to the patch at my request.[/quote] It still exists it’s just not prescribed as frequently [/quote] Same. On oral HRT for both estradiol and progesterone. Topical was not offered. I have no idea on difference on application. I use wild yam cream or a vulva balm for any dryness or chafing. Lube as needed. [/quote]
