I get that it would never actually work like that, but every time I see it, I'm struck with the mental image of getting drunk off of estrogen.

Estrogen gel is mostly alcohol. The alcohol-based gel helps you spread it evenly and then evaporates, leaving only a thin layer of e on the skin.

If you were to administer the gel in a route where it cannot evaporate, it probably would get you tipsy.

The alcohol isn't ethanol, though, so it might also blind you, or whatever. But it would get you tipsy all the same!
