Estalis

Product Description

Estalis HRT Patches is a prescription-only Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) medicated patch used to treat the symptoms of menopause in women. As a combined HRT treatment, Estalis contains two active female hormones: Estradiol (an oestrogen) and Norethisterone (a progestogen).

How Estalis Works
During menopause, a woman’s natural oestrogen levels decline, leading to distressing symptoms. Estalis works by replacing these lost hormones. The patch is applied directly to the skin (transdermal), allowing the hormones to enter the bloodstream gradually and consistently. Because it is absorbed through the skin, it bypasses the liver, which may reduce the risk of blood clots compared to oral HRT tablets and often results in fewer digestive side effects.

Key Benefits of Estalis HRT Patches

Estalis is highly effective in alleviating common menopausal symptoms, including:

Vasomotor symptoms: Relief from hot flushes and night sweats.
Urogenital symptoms: Improvement in vaginal dryness and discomfort.
Bone Health: Helps prevent the loss of bone density (osteoporosis) in postmenopausal women.
Womb Protection: The inclusion of Norethisterone prevents the overgrowth of the womb lining, making it suitable for women who have not had a hysterectomy.
Usage and Application
Estalis is known as a “continuous combined” HRT, meaning both hormones are released throughout the entire 4-week cycle, resulting in a bleed-free period for most users (after the body adjusts). The patch is designed to be changed twice weekly (every 3 to 4 days) and should be applied to a clean, dry area of the lower body.

Important Safety Information
As with all HRT treatments, Estalis requires a prescription. It is not suitable for women with a history of breast cancer or blood clots. Please consult your doctor or our online pharmacist to ensure Estalis is the right choice for your hormone health needs.
