question from a user
Just curious if you know any stats on going from 1 weekly dose to 2 weekly doses?
AlphaMD's Answer
We don’t have as much data on going 1x/wk to 2x/wk as we do for 2x/wk to 3x/wk. mainly because 1x/wk has fallen out of favor and is relatively uncommon. But from what limited data we do have in our patient population, the drop in E2 is also about 20% when going from 1x/wk to 2x/wk.
