Systemic estrogen falls into two categories.
There's transdermal, of which the patch is transdermal, just means it just goes through the skin.
So if you're out of patches, if you want to say, oh, but I really want to stay with the transdermal, you can use a spray, you can use a gel.
Those are readily available.
And even different doses of the patch are available.
So I don't think anyone needs to panic because you can't find a patch.
We have options.
Then there's also oral.
And again, oral hormone therapy gets maligned as if that's something terrible.
It's like you can use oral.
Most of the information, the data that we have on the benefits, all of the things about hormone therapy really comes from the data that we have on oral.
Right.
That's an excellent point because, you know, sometimes it gets all mushed in together.
But when I'm talking about HRT, generally we're talking about systemic.
which means that you are using estrogen and a progestogen of some type at a level that, again, controls the symptoms, hot flashes, the mood swings, all the brain fog that we typically associate with perimenopause and menopause.
So we're taking estrogen at a level that will take care of those symptoms.
Okay.
So you can do it orally, you can do it transdermally as a patch, but it is going, it's systemic because it is going throughout your body.
Got it.
Okay.
