About Estradiol pessaries

Estradiol pessaries are classed as hormone replacement therapy (HRT). They act in the same way as the female sex hormone oestrogen. They are used to treat vaginal atrophy and for the prophylaxis of recurring urinary tract infections (UTIs) in postmenopausal women. Estradiol pessaries help to treat menopausal symptoms such as vaginal dryness and irritation.

NowPatient offers Estradiol, Vagifem, or Vagirux pessaries as treatments for HRT, following an online consultation with a prescribing clinician.
