Why Are Estradiol Patches on Backorder?
Many women across California are being told their estradiol patch is unavailable or on backorder.
Demand for hormone replacement therapy (HRT) has increased dramatically over the last few years while manufacturers and suppliers continue struggling with supply chain issues.
Some suppliers are also increasing prices significantly, while insurance reimbursement often remains unchanged — making it difficult for many pharmacies to continue stocking estradiol patches.
At Doctor’s Choice Pharmacy, we work with more than 10 suppliers, including East Coast distributors, to help keep estradiol patches available for our patients whenever possible.
