ESTRACE (ESTRADIOL)

Try Estrace to Help You Get Through Menopause

Estrace is the brand name given to the drug Estradiol, an oral prescription medication taken to help prevent or reduce menopause symptoms. Estradiol is a form of estrogen, which is a hormone normally produced by the ovaries. You will need a prescription from your doctor to purchase Estrace or the generic alternative Estradiol. The generic alternative is not manufactured by the company that makes the brand product.

What Estrogen Does in Your Body

As you reach menopause, you no longer have a period as the ovaries are now retired. That said, the rest of your body may be paying the price for low estrogen levels. This can involve the risk of osteoporosis as the process of building new bone slows down while the old bone is still being reabsorbed at the same rate. This leaves you vulnerable for fractures.

Taking Estrace will help increase your estrogen level and help to keep your bones less fragile as well as improving your moods and reducing the risk of hair loss during menopause. If you have not had a hysterectomy, it may be recommended that you should also include a progesterone.

Conditions Treated by Estrace

Menopause occurs when the ovaries begin to slow their production of estrogen, creating a hormonal imbalance in the body. Although it is a natural part of a woman’s life, menopause can nevertheless have some unwanted consequences. Indeed, for some women, menopause is a time defined by headaches, mood swings, hot flashes, and poor sleep. This occurs when the ovaries begin to slow their production of estrogen, creating a hormonal imbalance in the body. Luckily, you might find some relief with Estrace or generic Estradiol, an estrogen-mimicking drug meant to replace this decreasing hormone.

Before You Take Estrace

Do not take Estrace if you think may be pregnant or there is a possibility you could become pregnant. Your doctor should be informed of your medical history, especially if you have experienced any vaginal bleeding of unknown cause or if you have any heart or liver conditions. Certain drugs may interact with Estrace, so be sure to discuss other medications you are taking so your doctor can determine the risk of adverse effects.

Precautions for Estrace

Estrace may interfere with certain laboratory tests, resulting in false test results. Long-term use of Estrace may increase your risk of breast cancer, heart attack, stroke, or blood clot. Talk with your doctor about the safety of taking the lowest dose of Estrace as a long-term hormone drug if needed.
