 Where To Apply Compounded Hormone Creams

Your doctor or compounding pharmacist should provide you with directions on how to use your compounded hormone creams. The following is a list of generally accepted sites for application:
  • Estrogen:
    wrist, forearm, under bicep, upper shoulder, inner thigh, behind knee, on rear end
  • Progesterone:
    forearm, neck, breasts, inner thigh, under bicep, on rear end
  • Testosterone:
    wrist, forearm, under bicep, upper shoulder, inner thigh, behind knee, on rear end and if in a non-alcohol base, on the vulva/clitoris

It is important to note that:
  • estrogen and testosterone should never be applied to breast tissue
  • application sites should be rotated for maximum success
  • apply the creams where they will not come in contact with others or pets
  • apply creams after showering/bathing or at least 30 minutes before water contact
