Medroxyprogesterone acetate is commonly sold under the brand name Provera in the US. Searching under this name may provide you with more results.
Seems like the farther west you live the more likely you are to get it instead of spiro, which is great for you since, from everything I've read, it seems to have less side effects....although headaches are one for all progestins.
I pondered ordering it from inhouse before, but siterone won me over with its reviews of being the best testosterone killer. This claim rang true as my T was 75 the last time i had it tested.
I know it's a good source of progesterone, but I'm curious as to how effective Provera is as an anti-androgen. Let us know if it keeps the facial hair from regrowing, as while siterone is amazing at killing T, its long term effect on the liver has me a bit scared. I've love to find an alternative and spiro just doesn't seem to work for me.
Btw, the 2mg Teva tabs are what both Sammie and I got for an estradiol. I also find it amusing that you're going to take 4 until a few weeks before your labs and then drop it down to 2. I decided to do the same but subbing siterone for spiro until test time.
Good luck! I'm glad getting your script was easier than it was for me lol
