Insurance will not give me a 90 day supply of my medications while I am studying abroad

Hello all! Wondering if anyone can help with my issue.

I am going abroad to Spain next semester. In fact, I leave next Wednesday. For the past few weeks my mom & I have been doing our best to get our insurance to let me have a 90 day supply of my medications, but they will only give us 30 days!!!

So here are my meds. I am trans, and I take testosterone injections. Funny enough, I actually have a full supply of testosterone, because they usually give me 4 months. (This is the most “controlled” substance out of al of them). My other two meds are Rosuvastatin and Norethindrone. My endocrine doctor told me not to worry about these meds bc I should just be able to go to the pharmacy and request a 90 day vacation supply for both, since they are common and non controlled medicines.

But my insurance will only give me 30 days! Please help, how can I talk to the company to get more meds? If I don’t get them now my family will have to mail them, and my abroad advisers in Spain have said that mailing packages to students from the US can be a huge hassle and cost a ton of $$ 😭

Or if anyone knows about medication availability in Spain… could I obtain either medicine while I’m there?
