Type Commercial Names Dosage Notes
Sublingual (E Valerate or Hemihydrate)
Cyclacur (EV), Estrofem (EH, imported), Trisequens (12 pills 2mg EH, 10 pills norgestrel, 6 pills 1mg EH) >=8-12mg/day While it is possible, even with a smaller dosage (at least 6mg), it's not that common. Ideally, use your blood tests to minmax your doses.
Injectable Estradiol Valerate (EV)
Neofollin (can be ordered from pharmacies near Czechia, not tested in Greece), Delestrogen (Vial, unavailable), Progynon Depot (Ampules, unavailable),
my honest reaction
5-7mg/5 days
  • Due to the large spikes in levels combined with the short half-life it is not recommended for dosages to surpass the 5 day mark because it may cause menopause symptoms.
  • Branded versions of this medication are not available in greece.
  • The ampules contain a certain mg and do not allow for larger dosages, they are not re-usable. It is recommended to use a vial with a cap.
  • Look for syringe dead space(*), e.g. if there's 0.05mL remaining after injecting, draw +0.05mL from the vial.
Injectable Estradiol Enanthate (EEn)
my honest reaction
4-7mg/Week

7-10mg/10 days (7.2mg usually, depending on the vial, it's optimal because drawing cents of mL are hard to get right)

  • You can multiply the weekly dosage by 2, which lasts up to 14 days (as much as the half-life of Enanthate)
  • Look for syringe dead space(*), e.g. if there's 0.05mL remaining after injecting, draw +0.05mL from the vial.
Injectable Estradiol Undecylate (EU/EUn)
my honest reaction
There's not enough information on dosage. The frequency of those may differ according to the oil used (MCT/Castor oil). Indicative Dosages:

15-20mg/2 weeks
