What is Oestrogel?
Oestrogel is a topical gel used as hormone replacement therapy (HRT) to relieve the symptoms of menopause. It replenishes the amount of estradiol, a natural hormone, in your body to regulate your health. If you have an intact uterus (have not undergone a hysterectomy), your doctor will recommend you to supplement it with progestogen.

How does Oestrogel work?
Estradiol is a type of estrogen, a naturally occurring hormone in women. It is produced by the ovaries. It regulates essential functions of the reproductive system. This includes regulating puberty, menstruation, pregnancy and the postpartum period. It also supports healthy bones and maintains heart function.
When women undergo menopause, their ovaries stop making estradiol. The low level of this hormone is responsible for many of the menopausal symptoms. To manage these symptoms, the normal level of estradiol in the body must be restored.
The active substance in Oestrogel is estradiol. When applied to the inside of the thigh or outer arm/ shoulder, Oestrogel gets absorbed into the blood and restores the amount of this hormone in the body. This relieves the symptoms associated with menopause.
