Utrogestan

Hi there,

My gynecologist doesn’t want to prescribe Utrogestan, so I’m looking for reliable sources to buy it online.

Is there anyone who could help me?

Thank you and have a great day.

Laura

Hi Laura, are you on Facebook? There are a couple of groups on there that have loads of info on women using bio identical progesterone and where they get it from.

They are called

Estrogen dominance support group

Hormone balance resource group UK

I’ve managed to get Utrogestan from my gp but I’ve also been supplementing this with a bio identical progesterone cream from a website called Onas which was recommended by a lot of women in the groups mentioned above. I have seen a couple of websites mentioned that are meant to be reputable that sell utrogestan. Also I think you can actually buy it over the counter in certain countries, again this info is in the groups.

Hi , sorry I don't have an answer but was wondering why he refused? I'm about to ask gp for the same pill and hoping he doesn't try to fob me off !

She basically thinks Utrogestan is the same as a progestin... She also said the dose is too high and it could disrupt my vaginal microbiome. And blah blah blah. So a firm no :/

Oh no, I had similar experience with a female GP, I went thinking she'd know more about endometriosis than the male GPS at same surgery , but came away thoroughly fobbed off

Why isn’t body identical progesterone (Utrogestan) used to treat endometriosis? Surely it could help & less side effects than synthetic.
