Seriously? Taking the advice from my doctor, im supposed to trash after 4th shot. He says there will be a bit left, but because of contamination(???) he wants me to switch vials every 4th shot.
Like, is that the real reason? Because it physically hurts to throw this away, knowing how much i and others have worked to get this stuff in the first place, and how many sisters cant access it 😭
Also really seems like a waste of time and resources. Like people had to make this, and that required time effort and money. Are we cool with throwing away the results of so much progress and effort?
Idk, its hitting me now that i have to toss one, these are all questions i have that my doctor will probly hear next time i go in 😂😂
PS. My nails look bad, its been a really rough month, dont talk about it 😂
Really want to be mad? That vial only costs a couple of bucks to manufacture.
Well now it does, but doesnt it cost more than a couple of bucks to get to the point where its so cheap to manufacture
US medical system is garbage, we all know this, thats a whole different post tho 😂
You know home brew HRT vials? Those are made by folks in labs they set up in their basement. They’re able to make vials for a couple dollars. The home brewers usually charge $50+ for a vial, but most of that cost is just finding a way to get it to you without revealing the identity of the seller. They have to use really elaborated and convoluted shipping/reshipping methods.
But the actual pharma companies? They have even better economies of scale. No way it’s costing them more than a few dollars per vial. If random STEM nerds can do it in their homes, I’m sure they can pull it off.
