Sobre Menopause Symptoms
Hormone replacement therapy provides estrogen, combined with a progestogen for women who have a womb. Our licensed doctors evaluate your symptoms and health history by video to discuss hormone replacement therapy online. If HRT is clinically suitable, a private electronic prescription is sent as a PDF by email for pharmacies in Spain. If your situation requires an in-person examination or specialist care first, our doctors refer you for in-person care.

Preguntas Frecuentes sobre Tratamiento de Menopause Symptoms
Preguntas comunes sobre el tratamiento de menopause symptoms en Lisbon
Can I get an HRT prescription online in Lisbon?
Our licensed doctors evaluate your menopause symptoms and review your full personal and family medical history by video. If hormone replacement therapy is clinically suitable, a private electronic prescription is sent as a PDF by email to present at a pharmacy in Spain. If your health situation requires an in-person physical examination or specialist care before starting or continuing treatment, our doctors will refer and advise you.
How do I renew an HRT prescription in Spain?
To renew your HRT, have the name, strength and dose of your current medication ready for your video consultation. Our doctors review your symptoms, health history and blood pressure to assess whether continuing treatment remains clinically suitable. Clinical guidance recommends reviewing HRT after about three months when starting or changing a dose, and at least once a year thereafter. If suitable, a private electronic prescription is sent as a PDF by email.
Can I continue HRT prescribed in the UK or US in Lisbon?
Under Spanish law, pharmacies cannot dispense prescriptions from the UK or the US under the EU cross-border rule, so a Spanish prescription is required to continue HRT in Spain. Medicine brand names often differ between countries, and some foreign products have no Spanish equivalent, such as combined patches. Our doctors can review your current treatment and prescribe an appropriate alternative available in Spain when clinically suitable.
Can I get HRT patches in Spain?
Yes, transdermal estrogen patches are marketed in Spain, though brand names and strengths differ from other countries. No combined estrogen-and-progestogen patch is sold in Spain. If you need a renewal or repeat prescription, our doctors can review your treatment and medical history to prescribe an available Spanish formulation when clinically suitable. Prescriptions are issued as a private electronic PDF to present at a pharmacy.
Can I start HRT online for the first time in Lisbon?
You can have an initial online assessment, but no menopause guideline endorses starting HRT through an online consultation alone. In Spain, product information states that doctors must take a full personal and family medical history before starting treatment. Our doctors evaluate this by video consultation and decide whether an in-person physical examination, such as a breast or pelvic check, is required first. Certain conditions always require in-person care.
When is in-person care needed instead of online HRT?
Our doctors refer you for in-person or specialist care instead of prescribing online if you have unexplained vaginal bleeding, menopause symptoms under 40, a past blood clot or clotting disorder, a stroke, heart attack or angina, active liver disease, or current or past breast cancer. You must also seek prompt in-person care for a new breast lump or heavy, unexpected vaginal bleeding. If you experience sudden chest pain, breathlessness, or one-sided weakness, call 112.
