If you are having trouble finding an endo in your location or are sick of traveling far to get to one, consider contacting your local Planned Parenthood.
I was traveling all the way to Seattle on a 2 hour bus just to see my endo and it was a pain and I actually decided to stop taking testosterone just to avoid the stress of traveling to the city alone just sit in office for less than 5 minutes and be sent home. When I first moved here (2 years ago) I was told that they were working on offering HRT but I never heard anything more. Last month I called on a whim and sure enough, they now offer it and just started in June. I now go somewhere that’s only 18 minutes away by bus which is very nice and convenient. I also know some of my friends that live in more rural areas now have somewhere to go when they didn’t before which is nice.
Whether or not your insurance pays for HRT may still be an issue, but Planned Parenthood does take all types of insurance I believe and they also offer a sliding scale program for those that have trouble affording appointments.
Anywho, I hope this information helps someone like it helped me! I haven’t really seen a lot of people taking about yet so I wanted to get the word out there for those who need it!
Planned Parenthood now offers HRT in all of it’s locations!!!
