Hi @drsuefowler 0.014mg/day probably is the lowest transdermal E2 strength by Menostar. Most other brands have 0.025 as lowest dose. My obgyn prescribed brand Vivelle Dot, which has 0.025, 0.0375, 0.05 mg/day and up. Prometrium (brand for micronized progesterone) has two different strength, 100mg and 200mg as gelcap. I'm currently on 0.025mg/day transdermal E2 and 100mg oral micronized progesterone daily at bedtime. My insurance only covers generics.

Is your CTX high while on tymlos and/or forteo?

Any testosterone and vaginal estradiol?

Thanks @mayblin. Those dosages are very helpful. My CTX was 1400 twice on Tymlos, at 3months and 7 months on half a dose. It was recently at 1200 and I'd only changed to Forteo for 3 weeks. I figure that was probably still from Tymlos. P1NP was 190 at 3 months, 310 at 7 months and most recently went down to 190 again.
