Indication :
- The medicine contains estrogens, natural sex hormones found in the body, and belongs to a group of drugs called hormone replacement therapy (HRT). It compensates for the loss of estrogen and thereby reduces symptoms.
- The drug is used to relieve menopausal symptoms (such as hot flashes) caused by estrogen deficiency in postmenopausal women.
- Experience in treating women over 65 years of age is limited.
Dosage :
- Always use the medicine exactly as your doctor told you. If you are not sure, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
- The individual dose can be from 0.5 to 3 g of gel per day.
- The usual dose is 1.5 g of gel per day (3 presses of the dosing pump) and is applied 24 to 28 days per month, and then 2 to 7 days without treatment. Each press gives a dose of 0. 5 g gel.
- During a break in treatment, bleeding similar to menstruation may occur. This bleeding is normal and limited in nature.
- Your doctor will prescribe medication based on your needs. He may change the dosage and duration of treatment depending on how you respond to therapy.
- To treat your symptoms, your doctor will prescribe the lowest possible effective dose and the shortest possible period of use.
- Your doctor may also prescribe medication for you to take continuously.
- In women with an intact uterus, additional progestogen is required for at least 12 days per cycle to prevent the risk of excessive development of the uterine lining (estrogen-induced endometrial hyperplasia).
- Tell your doctor if you find that the effect of the medicine is too strong or too weak.
- Frequency of use:
- The gel should be applied once a day, preferably in the morning or evening after washing.
