FAQs
Vaginal estradiol tablets are an FDA-approved prescription medication designed to treat symptoms associated with genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM). These include vaginal atrophy, vaginal dryness, itching, painful intercourse and other urinary complaints commonly associated with menopause.
Vaginal estradiol tablets are inserted into the vagina and designed to deliver estradiol locally to the vaginal tissues. It works by helping to replenishing estrogen levels in that area, thereby restoring vaginal moisture, improving the health of the vaginal lining, and alleviating symptoms of vaginal atrophy often associated with menopause.
The time it takes for vaginal estradiol tablets to alleviate menopausal symptoms, like vaginal dryness and painful sex, can vary from person to person. Many women report experiencing relief within a few weeks of starting treatment, while others may take longer to notice a significant improvement. It's essential to discuss expectations and progress with your Evernow provider, as the response to estradiol can differ based on individual factors and the specific symptoms being addressed.
Dosage of vaginal estradiol tablets for managing menopausal symptom management varies depending on the brand and the individual's needs. Typical dosage usually ranges from 0.5 to 1 milligram daily, with individual adjustments made by your Evernow provider based on your specific needs and response to the treatment.
