What is femoston?
Femoston is a type of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) used to treat women who have reached menopause. It can be used to relieve symptoms such as hot flushes, night sweats, vaginal dryness and painful sex. Femoston HRT can also help to prevent osteoporosis (thinning of the bones).
How Does Femoston HRT Work?
Estrogen is a female sex hormone that is produced in the ovaries to regulate the menstrual cycle and aid in the development of breasts and other sexual characteristics. Progesterone is a hormone that is produced in the ovaries and the adrenal glands. It helps to prepare the lining of the uterus for pregnancy and plays a role in breast development.
Femoston is a type of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) that contains two types of hormones, estrogen and progesterone. The estrogen in femoston is called estradiol and is derived from plants. The progesterone in femoston is called dydrogesterone, a synthetic progesterone that is similar to the hormone progesterone that is produced by the body.
When you take femoston, the estradiol and dydrogesterone are released into your bloodstream. They travel to your ovaries and cause the ovaries to produce more estrogen and progesterone, thus relieving the symptoms of menopause.
