Updated: Hormone Creams Seep Into the Bloodstream #mayoclinic #autoimmunedisease #lorijeanfinnila #leepingmyselfwell #hormonecream

My healthcare provider prescribed me hormone cream and told me it doesn't enter the blood stream. Mayo clinic disagrees. I have an autoimmune disease where this can trigger my thyroid.
