PSA: Testosterone enanthate shortage in the US

I was just at CVS to refill my T prescription and was told that testosterone enanthate is on backorder and won't be available until 19 July. This is enanthate specifically; cypionate is still available. The pharmacist told me that there's only one company in the US that makes enanthate and they're out of stock for some reason so there's a shortage. If you're on enanthate and you're going to need a refill before late July, I recommend trying to refill it ASAP if you can. Some pharmacies still have vials in stock but I have no idea how long they'll stay available. I had my prescription sent to a different CVS as my local one had already run out of enanthate. Hopefully I'll get it tomorrow as my current vial is nearly empty and tomorrow's shot day!

You can always get your doctor to prescribe you cypionate instead, but if you can get a refill on your current prescription, so much the better.
