Oestrogen medication

Hi all

After my failed fresh transfer recently, I’ve been told I can begin prep for the frozen one. I’ve been prescribed Progynova from my clinic but I can’t get it where I am so they’ve said I can use a substitute that my local pharmacy does have called Premarin.

Has anyone used Premarin and had success with it? I’d obviously like to use the Progynova that they prescribed but I cannot get it to take any time soon, it has to be ordered in. The clinic said Premarin is pretty much the same but I’m a bit anxious it might not be as good.

Thanks in advance 😊

Hi Always_worried. It’s another source of oestrogen and is used here. Good luck. Diane

Try not to worry, it’s just an another type/brand equally as good. All the very best with your journey x
