We'll thats strange, your doc can prescribe whatever the heck he/she wants here in the USA as far as I know, you don't even need informed consent but many like to go that route for legal protection... If your insurance wont cover it that's a different issue but the generic E2 pills from Wal-Mart for instance are cheaper than E2 from overseas without insurance and you know for sure its the real thing... Estrofem from inhousepharmacy.vu is micronized 17B E2, a bit more pricy than Progynova (EV) but either one will work to get started...
The usual dosage for prometrium is 100-200mg and I think they only come in 100mg or 200mg dosage and they are gel caps that you cant split but you can take 100mg twice a day if 200mg is too much for you at one time... There is a TON of good info out there if you search for MTF or transgender HRT ect...
Also I have a hard time believing any insurance wouldn't cover psych visits for whatever reason
But again you don't need one if your doctor is willing to prescribe HRT for you.... Neither one of mine did....
A GD "diagnosis" does help if they deny claims though....
