Hormone therapy for menopause, prescribed online in Vermont
Vermont women can be prescribed hormone therapy for the symptoms of perimenopause and menopause — estradiol as a clear olive-oil topical, a cream, or a patch, or estriol as a vaginal cream — through a short online intake reviewed by a US-licensed clinician, when it’s clinically appropriate. Care is 100% online and asynchronous in Vermont — no video visit is required. Each form is a 12-week supply at $199 to $269 per 12-week supply, charged once a clinician prescribes and renewing every 12 weeks until you cancel. It ships free from a US-licensed pharmacy to Burlington, Essex, South Burlington, and everywhere else in Vermont.

Yes. Pallas serves Vermont and all 50 states plus Washington, D.C.. Every clinician who treats Vermont patients holds an active license from the Vermont Board of Medical Practice, and partner pharmacies ship to every Vermont ZIP code. Vermont 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 — taken through the skin as a clear topical, a cream, or a patch, or applied locally as a vaginal cream — prescribed to help manage those symptoms when a clinician determines it's appropriate for you.
Pallas plans are estrogen-only. For women who still have a uterus, systemic estrogen — the clear topical, cream, or patch — is generally prescribed together with a progestogen to protect the uterine lining, and Pallas doesn't currently prescribe progesterone; your clinician may decide an estrogen-only plan isn't the right fit and explain what to ask your own doctor for instead. Vaginal estriol 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 Vermont
Prescribing for a resident of Vermont requires a clinician licensed there, and every Pallas clinician who treats Vermont patients holds an active license from the Vermont Board of Medical Practice. Estradiol and estriol are not controlled substances, so the controlled-substance telemedicine rules don't apply; Vermont 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 Vermont: Independent practice after transition to practice; collaborating provider agreement required until 24 months and 2,400 hours of active practice (26 V.S.A. §1571; §1613; verified 2026-08-17).

Not necessarily. A US-licensed clinician decides from your symptoms and health history whether lab work is needed before prescribing in Vermont. If you have recent hormone-related labs, you can upload them during the intake or later from the Documents page of your Pallas portal, and your clinician can ask for labs if your history calls for them. We also ask you to keep your primary care provider informed and up to date with regular checkups.
