What are "female levels" you're referring to? Did you get bloods done? If not, come back to talk about this once you have. Absorbtion is totally different thing from the amount of estradiol used. 

Creams have nowhere near the concentration that estradiol gels or injection has. I can fight about this if I have to. Creams are meant for menopause symptoms, actual HRT medication is meant for actual HRT. Also used to ease menopause symptoms but thats the point. You would need a fuckton of normal creams to go anywhere near "female levels" which is kinda moot because levels vary massively depending on person and time of the cycle.

For example, my average estradiol levels are 300pg/ml, tell me about a estradiol cream that can go anywhere near it and I'll give you a cookie. You wont find one. Unless of course you take a bath in the said cream. 

Give me facts, this could turn into an interesting lesson in endocrinology.
