Estradiol
Estradiol tops up the estrogen your body makes less of during menopause. Symptoms like hot flashes and poor sleep often ease within a few weeks.
Estradiol is the main form of estrogen, the hormone your ovaries produce until menopause. Around menopause, your estrogen levels drop. That deficiency is a major cause of many menopause symptoms.
The estradiol we prescribe is bioidentical: chemically identical to the hormone your body makes itself. Topping it up helps bring your body back into balance.
- Hot flashes
- Night sweats
- Poor sleep
- Mood swings
- Fatigue
- Vaginal dryness
- Brain fog
- Joint pain
Your preference comes first. No price difference between forms.
You and your doctor choose the form and dose together, based on your symptoms and medical situation. You usually start with a low dose. Do you still have a uterus? Then you’ll almost always take estradiol together with progesterone, to protect your uterine lining.
- Possible side effects in the first weeks: tender breasts, headache, nausea or some spotting. These often pass on their own.
- Estradiol isn’t suitable if you have (had) breast cancer, thrombosis or serious liver disease, or if you have unexplained vaginal bleeding. Your doctor checks this during the intake.
- Always read the patient leaflet. Questions? Chat with our medical team.
