Progesterone and Armour Thyroid in Ecuador

8 years ago
Hello all,

We will be leaving for an exploratory trip to Ecuador on October 15 and staying for about a month. I have looked for current information on prescriptions in Ecuador but haven't found much dated this year.

I currently do not have insurance and I use bio identical progesterone, Armour thyroid, and compounded estriol. I can get them here and bring them down but would it be possible to save some money and visit a doctor in Ecuador with my doctor's written prescriptions? I've read several posts from years ago about people doing this, but it wasn't clear whether or not they were residents or visitors.

Any input or advice you can give me would be greatly appreciated.
