Sorry didn't see this Raptors claws are coming to town

I'm on femoston 1/10

Question... My old pill packet finished today. Nurse said start new ones tomorrow.

The info says white for 14 days then grey so I assume white tomorrow?

The desorex says start on first day of bleeding so do I wait until that happens or start tomorrow which is what nurse implied?

Pix, start straight on to both, start with the white Femoston tablets, and use barrier contraception for the next seven days just to be absolutely sure you don't get a little surprise.

For the first time, my local medical practice couldn’t get any Oestrogel but they gave me my prescription and suggested I try Morrison’s pharmacy - they had it in stock. Big Phew!!

Glad you got some, GM. It’ll be interesting to see if I get my repeat prescription on Thursday. 🤞

Probably coincidence. And if it's anything like here, it's none too warm.
