That sounds suspicious, but I guess it could be that their sources really have dried up. But I am confident you can get it from a legit source that will still be covered by your insurance if you investigate.

This also sounds fishy? I have always heard that once it is mixed, you need to keep it cool. I would keep this batch cool, too.

Is it possible they have given you the oral hCG used for diets? I have read that "HCG drops do not require refrigeration". If it is oral hCG, that will not work for HRT.

I have read about people testing their hCG with pregnancy tests on this very forum. Although I do believe they confirmed a positive result, the vets here mentioned that the result is really inconclusive. Pregnancy tests themselves can fail, and the concentrations for a positive pregnancy result and concentrations used for HRT are two different things.
