Hi, I'm a student in Japan for the next 6 months (I have a residence card so I hope I qualify for this sub), and I'm currently going thru hormone replacement therapy. I had to switch my meds from injections to transdermal spray because I can't get needles in Japan, and I want to get my levels checked to make sure I'm hitting the right marks with my dosage. Problem is I'm not sure where to go to do that, I don't know if it's like the US where I can just walk into a clinic and get my blood drawn and tested. Additionally, I speak very little Japanese, so that probably doesn't help either. Just wondering if anyone has any insight or advice on where to go and what to do. I'm in Hirakata, close to Osaka if anyone knows anywhere specific in the area I could go. Thank you!
