Gynokadin 2mg Tablet 100 Pcs. (Estradiol), Gynokadin 2mg Tabletten 100 Stk.(Estradiol)

The medicine is a drug for hormone replacement therapy (HRT). It contains estrogen (female sex hormone).

It is used in postmenopausal women whose last menstruation (menopause) was at least 1 year ago.

The medicine is used for:

Relief of postmenopausal symptoms

During menopause, a woman’s production of her own estrogen decreases. This can cause symptoms such as hot flashes in the face, neck, and chest (called hot flashes). This medicine relieves these symptoms that occur after menopause. You will only be prescribed the drug if your symptoms significantly affect your daily life.

The drug can only be used separately without regular addition of the corpus luteum hormone (progestogen) in women whose uterus has been removed.

Always take this medicine exactly as your doctor or pharmacist has told you. If you are unsure, consult your doctor or pharmacist.

If possible, always take the entire medicine at the same time of day with plenty of liquid (such as a glass of water).

Unless otherwise prescribed by a doctor, the usual dose is ½ up to 1 tablet per day.

If you have had your uterus removed or no longer have periods, treatment can begin any day.

If you have not had your uterus removed, treatment with the drug must be combined with progestogen for at least 12–14 days in a 28-day cycle. Withdrawal bleeding usually occurs after a period of treatment with progestogens.

The addition of a progestogen is not recommended for women who have had their uterus removed, unless colonization of the uterine lining outside the uterus (endometriosis) has been diagnosed.

Your doctor will try to give you the minimum dose needed to treat your symptoms for the shortest possible time. Please talk to your doctor if you feel that the effect of the medicine is too strong or too weak.
