Hormone therapy for menopause, prescribed online in South Carolina

Is online hormone therapy available in South Carolina?

Yes. Pallas serves South Carolina and all 50 states plus Washington, D.C.. Every clinician who treats South Carolina patients holds an active license from the South Carolina Board of Medical Examiners, and partner pharmacies ship to every South Carolina ZIP code. South Carolina allows asynchronous care, so no video visit is required.

What hormone therapy is

Through perimenopause and menopause the ovaries make less estrogen, and the drop is what drives hot flashes, night sweats, broken sleep, mood swings, and vaginal dryness for many women. Hormone therapy is prescription estradiol or estriol — through the skin as a cream or a patch, or applied locally as a vaginal cream — usually paired with progesterone for women who have a uterus, prescribed to help manage those symptoms.

For women who still have a uterus, systemic estrogen is generally prescribed together with a progestogen to protect the uterine lining. Pallas prescribes progesterone — in the Biest cream, which combines it with estrogen, and as capsules — and your clinician decides which plan, if any, fits your history. The estradiol vaginal cream is a local preparation and is typically considered without one.

Forms, safety, and risks are on the hormone therapy program page.

Telehealth rules for hormone therapy in South Carolina

Prescribing for a resident of South Carolina requires a clinician licensed there, and every Pallas clinician who treats South Carolina patients holds an active license from the South Carolina Board of Medical Examiners. Estradiol, estriol, and progesterone are not controlled substances, so the controlled-substance telemedicine rules don't apply; South Carolina allows the provider-patient relationship to be established through asynchronous telehealth, so your review and follow-up can happen by secure message. Your prescription is filled by a US-licensed pharmacy, and some forms are compounded per-patient under FDCA §503A.

Nurse practitioner prescribing in South Carolina: Prescriptive authority is exercised under a written practice agreement with a physician that must be maintained for the duration of practice; prescribing is limited to the drugs and devices named in that agreement and to the nurse practitioner's specialty field (S.C. Code Ann. §40-33-34; verified 2026-08-17).

Also from Pallas: estriol face cream

A separate prescription cream for the face, not a form of hormone therapy: estriol, tretinoin, and niacinamide in one compounded cream, prescribed for the drier, thinner, less elastic skin that comes as estrogen falls. It has its own short intake. From $69.
