Hey, just a heads-up for anyone else using Androderm testosterone patchesβ both the Androderm 2mg and 4mg patches have been discontinued by the manufacturer and will no longer be available.
There isn't a generic version or another manufacturer who makes these (at least not here in the states), so if you've been using these patches, I'd strongly advise calling your HRT provider ASAP to discuss other treatment options. Testosterone gel still seemed to be available from most of the pharmacies I checked, so if you still want to use a non-injection method I'd recommend switching to that for now.
There doesn't seem to have been a recall of any existing patches from what I could find, so if you have some of yours left & haven't been having any issues with them, they should still be safe to use in the meantime.
This is probably old news by now, but I haven't seen a post about it anywhere & I only just found out today after making like 5 consecutive phonecalls trying to refill mine, so I figured I'd try to get the word out to others. π please reblog & boost so more people know!
