We perform annual reviews for women taking HRT in order to ensure the medicine is still meeting your needs and that it is still safe to prescribe. This form is designed to make it more convenient for women who are happy with their current HRT and not experiencing any issues.

If you are having any problems with your HRT, would like to switch to a different type of HRT or have any questions please do not use this form and contact the surgery to arrange an appointment.

  • If you would prefer to speak to a doctor, we would be happy to review your HRT over the phone or in person. Please contact the surgery.

In order to provide you with another prescription of your HRT we need to ask you a number of questions.
