Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Estrone 0.01% Vaginal Cream is a semisolid formulation, dispensed in a tube, designed for convenient and precise application in the vaginal area. This topical medication is used to treat a variety of gynecological conditions, particularly those associated with menopause and post-menopause. It is a topical estrogen cream that is used to alleviate symptoms such as vaginal dryness, itching, and burning, which are common during menopause.

One of the key uses of Estrone 0.01% Vaginal Cream is in the treatment of vaginal atrophy, a condition that can occur after menopause. Vaginal atrophy is characterized by the thinning, drying, and inflammation of the vaginal walls due to a reduction in estrogen. By delivering a controlled dose of estrogen directly to the affected area, Estrone 0.01% Vaginal Cream helps to restore the natural balance of hormones in the body, thereby reducing the symptoms of vaginal atrophy.

Furthermore, Estrone 0.01% Vaginal Cream can also help to reduce the risk of other conditions such as urinary tract infections, which are more common in post-menopausal women due to changes in the urinary tract. By maintaining a healthy balance of hormones, this medication can help to maintain the health of the urinary tract and reduce the risk of infection.

It is important to note that Estrone 0.01% Vaginal Cream should be used as directed by a healthcare professional. The cream is usually applied once or twice daily, directly to the affected area of the vagina. Always follow the instructions provided by your doctor or pharmacist when using this medication. If you have any questions about the use of Estrone 0.01% Vaginal Cream, please consult with your healthcare provider.
