Are they using the hormone patches?

I used those and at first my insurance company would not approve the brand name, but would only authorize the generic - which did not release the hormones consistently. That put me back almost to where I was before the hysterectomy. So my doctor wrote a new prescription requiring the brand name.

Every time my husband's company changed insurance coverage - almost annually - we went through this argument with the pharmacy. That was a major reason I just said to hell with it, I will live just fine without hormones.
