 This medication is a hormone (estrogen). It is used by women to help reduce vaginal symptoms of menopause (such as vaginal dryness/burning/itching). These symptoms are caused by the body making less estrogen. When treating only vaginal symptoms of menopause, products applied directly inside the vagina (such as this medication) should be used first. Estrogens that are taken by mouth, absorbed through the skin, or injected may have greater risks of side effects due to more estrogen being absorbed.

This hormone medication is administered topically and quickly assimilates into the bloodstream. It is prescribed to women to alleviate a specific menopause symptom known as hot flashes, which arises due to decreased estrogen production in the body. If you're seeking relief solely for vaginal menopausal symptoms like dryness, burning, or itching, it's advisable to consider products that are directly applied inside the vagina before resorting to oral medications, transdermal patches or injections.
