Estradiol Vaginal Cream

Posted by bbeebe1943 @bbeebe1943, Nov 30, 2021

Has anyone experienced bad side effects from using Estradiol cream? My urologist wants me to take it for very frequent nighttime urination. Anyone have hair loss that you believe is from using iti? Thank you.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Menopause Support Group.

I want to add comment about using estrogen cream (or other form of estrogen) for treatment . If you have had breast cancer, check with provider / oncologist before using any product with estrogen.

It may be OK in your situation, depends on type of breast cancer and type of treatment.

You do not want to solve one problem and cause another.

For the record, the studies are showing that the estradiol cream is not absorbed into the bloodstream, thereby having very little risk of a BC recurrence.
