Questions about BHRT
Are the Estrogel, Elestrin gels, Divivels etc...(all the ones you mentioned) a form of BHRT? I am currently using compounded creams. Just curious, since maybe they could work better for me than compound creams & will most likely save me money since compound creams are quite costly! Thanks!

Re: Questions about BHRT
Yes, all of those products are bio-identical estradiol. So are the patches such as Vivelle-dot and Climara, and also oral Estrace (estradiol). They all contain the same estradiol that is used in the compounded creams.
