My dog is on diethylstilbestrol (DES) for spay incontinence. She started 3-4 weeks ago with a dose of one a day for 5 days, then one a week. We missed last week's dose and gave her one today after an accident. Do I need to start over with one a day for five days, or just pick up the weekly dose?

The correct approach to dosing DES is to start with the smallest and least frequent dose that works....
