Estradiol Oral Tablet

Randomized data show that estradiol started early in menopause slowed the progression of atherosclerosis, while the same therapy started ten or more years out did not — the window, not the hormone, drove the difference.

THE TIMING WINDOW

The same hormone, ten years apart, is not the same decision.

HOW ESTRADIOL WORKS

Restores the signal your body stopped sending.

Glucose control.

Estradiol is bioidentical to the estrogen the ovaries produce. Estrogen receptors sit throughout the body — in the brain's temperature center, in bone, in vaginal and urinary tissue, and in blood vessel walls — which is why the symptoms of menopause show up in so many different places at once.

Calms temperature regulation

Estrogen receptors in the hypothalamus influence the body's thermoregulatory set point. Restoring estradiol is the most effective studied approach to hot flashes and night sweats.

Supports bone density

Estrogen slows the rate at which bone is broken down. The years immediately after menopause carry the fastest bone loss of a woman's life.

Supports genitourinary tissue

Vaginal and urethral tissue is estrogen-dependent. Declining estradiol contributes to dryness, discomfort with intercourse, and urinary symptoms.

Paired with progesterone if you have a uterus

Estrogen alone stimulates the uterine lining. Anyone with an intact uterus needs progesterone alongside it for endometrial protection.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Questions, answered

What is oral estradiol?

Oral estradiol is a prescription tablet form of estradiol used to relieve menopausal symptoms. It undergoes first-pass liver metabolism, which may affect clotting factors more than transdermal forms; your provider will discuss the relevant risks for your profile.

How does oral estradiol compare to patches or creams?

Oral estradiol is the simplest delivery format but undergoes first-pass liver metabolism, which transdermal routes avoid. Your physician will recommend the best form for your individual needs.
