Why this happens
Folic acid is a B vitamin used by the body to make healthy cells, while Oestrogel is a hormone replacement therapy (HRT) that provides estradiol through the skin. These substances are processed by the body through different pathways and do not interfere with how the other is absorbed, used, or cleared from the system.
What you should do
You can continue to take your folic acid supplement and use your Oestrogel pump-pack as prescribed by your doctor. No special precautions or timing changes are necessary.
