I've been taking the Estratest 1.25/2.5 for years without complications. I was told this was changed to Covaryx and this was generic ...however some say not Generic ..this is confusing.. the price especially..I checked several Phamacies $300 plus..up to $405 (Walgreens) for 90 pills...The pill is yellow for 1.24/2.5 ....pink for HS ## I've been taking Estratest for a few years now and love it....I have been getting it at Walmart for about $55 for 3 month supply....If you use an RX Savings Card you will be amazed at the difference in pricing. My insurance does not cover it - thank goodness that I found this discount - otherwise it is the the $300 range. It is still called Estratest as of 2 months ago. ## I ran into the same problem. A 30 day prescription was going to be nearly $3...

I have been prescribed 40 mg of Propranolol 2x a day plus one multivitamin a day, I have hyperthyroidism and anemia. I was wondering if I can take 1 Capsule of Estroven nighttime before bed. ## Hello, Lilymae! How are you? As far as I know, it's safe with the Propranolol, I was able to take it with other beta blockers, after checking with my doctor. However, with your medical conditions, the thyroid issue and the anemia, I'm not sure and think you should check in with your doctor, before taking it, just to be safe. Do you take a medication for your thyroid condition?

Hi, I am 30 yrs... I have continuous bleeding for 10 days to 15 days in my period. Dr. advised me to take Regestrone. So plz tell me the use of Regestrone..what is it doses, please...Help me out... ## Hello, Muskan! How are you? Regestrone contains the hormone progesterone, which is vital to the female menstrual cycle. In many cases of prolonged bleeding, such as what you're experiencing, it's due to the woman not ovulating and producing enough progesterone naturally, it lets the estrogen build the endometrial lining far too thickly. Thus, it would be best for you to try it according to your doctor's instructions. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Hi.. I was having the same problem.. Bleeding for 10 days and that too very heavy. I took regestrone for 3 months from 1...

I was on it for years and then they found a mass in both breast so I had to have surgery and have them removed. It wwasn't cancer. They rrefused to put me back on hormone replacement so for five years things just kept getting worse. I went to a new ob/gyn and he prescribed me the estrogen/methyl 1.25/2.5. The first bottle i got was name brand and had no issues. Now I had to switch to mail order pharmacy because if my insurance or pay 100% of the cost if I chose to go to a different place so I had to switch. They sent me a 90 day supply of the generic and now i have this awful rash on my chest. I have not switched any bath soap, laundry detergent or anything else. This has been the only c...

Post menopause - no medications for 10 years, until recently when needed help for symptoms. In my 4th month now of this tablet, taken with 10 days progesterone. Noticed yesterday a small rusty discolor on my pantiliner. This mornings noticed same when wiping after urinating. Abdomen feels like it used to during a period. Not sure what to do. ## Hello, Deb! How are you? Anytime you are post menopausal and have vaginal bleeding, you should have it checked out by your doctor. In your case, it is most likely due the hormones you're taking, but there is a chance that it could be due to something else, so it's better to have it looked into for your own health and safety. Side effects to these hormones may include nausea, headache, irritability and other hormonal type symptoms. Is ther...
