estradiol

any info on the HRT Estradiol?

Hello!

Is your doctor prescribing estradiol for you? Estradiol is a bio-identical estrogen and is available in many different doses and methods of delivery such as pills, patches, gel and lotion. I've been using the transdermal Vivelle Dot for many years and really like it for its effectiveness and convenience. Since it is in patch form, I don't have to swallow a pill to get my estrogen. I really don't like pills.

There's more information about estradiol in article 8 in this resource: Hormone Jungle Articles.

I hope this helps!
