Medical Information:

This medication is a female estrogen hormone and is usually given to women who no longer produce the amount of estrogen they produced before menopause. It is a very effective treatment for reducing a common menopause symptom (intense feelings of warmth and sweating known as hot flashes). If you need treatment only for vaginal menopause symptoms (e.g., vaginal dryness), products applied directly inside the vagina should be considered before medications that are taken by mouth, absorbed through the skin, or injected.

Certain estrogen products may also be used to prevent bone loss (osteoporosis) in people at high risk who cannot take non-estrogen drugs. There are several other medications (e.g., raloxifene, bisphosphonates such as alendronate) that are safe and effective to prevent or treat bone loss. These medicines should be considered for use before estrogen treatment.

Certain estrogen products may also be used to treat certain cancers in men and women (e.g., certain types of metastatic breast cancer, prostate cancer) and other conditions as determined by your doctor.

DOSAGE AND DIRECTIONS FOR USEBefore Climen is used, a thorough general medical (including measurement of blood pressure, analysis of urine for sugar, if applicable performance of special liver diagnostics as well) and gynaecological (including the breast and a cytological smear of the cervix and portio) examination should be performed in order to detect any diseases requiring treatment or risk factors and, where applicable, to rule out pregnancy. During the use, checks are recommended at intervals of about 6 months.

The pack contains seven self-adhesive strips marked with the days of the week. Each strip starts with a different day of the week. Stick the strip that starts with your "Start" day along the top of the memo-pack where indicated. For example, if the tablets are started on a Wednesday, the strip that starts with "Wed" should be selected. Each tablet is thus marked with the corresponding day of the week and one can see at a glance whether the tablet for that day has been taken or not.Tablet-taking is always started from the blister marked "Start" and continued daily in the direction of the arrows until all 28 tablets have been taken. At the start of therapy the first tablet is taken on day 5 of the cycle (1st day of menstruation = 1st day of cycle). Menstruation will usually take place whilst the 7 non-hormonal tablets are being taken, before the next pack is started. The tablets are to be swallowed whole with some liquid.

Patients with amenorrhoea (rule out pregnancy beforehand) and postmenopausal women can start taking the tablets - 1 per day over 28 days - on any day they like.

After the 1st pack has been finished, the next pack of Climen is started on the following day.If no withdrawal bleeding occurs whilst taking the 7 non-hormonal tablets at the end of the pack, tablet-taking from the new pack should not be commenced until pregnancy has been ruled out.

If a tablet is not taken at the usual time, it should be taken within 12 hours of that time in order to avoid the occurrence of intermenstrual bleeding.

Medical Information:

This combination hormone medication is used to prevent pregnancy. It contains 2 hormones, a progestin and an estrogen. These hormones prevent pregnancy by preventing the release of an egg (ovulation). They also change the womb and cervical mucus, making it more difficult for an egg to meet sperm (fertilization) or for the fertilized egg to attach to the wall of the womb (implantation).

Besides preventing pregnancy, birth control pills have been shown to help make your periods more regular, decrease blood loss and painful periods (dysmenorrhea), and decrease your risk of ovarian cysts.

Use of this medication does not protect you or your partner against sexually transmitted diseases (e.g., HIV, gonorrhea, chlamydia).

How to use Desogestrel-Ethinyl Estradiol OralRead the Patient Information Leaflet provided by your pharmacist before you start using this product and each time you get a refill. The leaflet contains very important information on when to take your pills and what to do if you miss a dose. If you have any questions, consult your doctor or pharmacist.

Take this medication by mouth once daily or as directed by your doctor. Pick a time of day that is easy for you to remember, and take your pill at the same time each day.

It is very important to continue taking this medication exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Follow the package instructions to find the first tablet, start with the first tablet in the pack, and take them in the correct order. Do not skip any doses. Pregnancy is more likely if you miss pills, start a new pack late, or take your pill at a different time of the day than usual.

Taking this medication after your evening meal or at bedtime may help if you have stomach upset or nausea with the medication. You may choose to take this medication at another time of day that is easier for you to remember. No matter what dosing schedule you use, it is very important that you take this medication at the same time each day, 24 hours apart. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you have any questions.

Your pill pack contains 21 pills (enough for 3 weeks) with a combination of estrogen and progestin. The last week of the pack contains 2 reminder pills with no medication and 5 pills that have a low dose of estrogen. Take one active pill (with both hormones) once daily for 21 days in a row. After the combination pills are finished, continue taking 1 tablet daily, starting with the 2 reminder tablets and finishing with the 5 estrogen-only tablets, or take as directed by your doctor. You should have your period during the fourth week of the cycle. After you have taken the last estrogen-only tablet in the pack, start a new pack the next day whether or not you have your period. If you do not get your period, consult your doctor.

If this is the first time you are using this medication and you are not switching from another form of hormonal birth control (e.g., patch, other birth control pills), take the first tablet in the pack on the first Sunday following the beginning of your menstrual period or on the first day of your period. If your period begins on a Sunday, begin taking this medication on that day. For the first cycle of use only, use an additional form of non-hormonal birth control (e.g., condoms, spermicide) for the first 7 days to prevent pregnancy until the medication has enough time to work. If you start on the first day of your period, you do not need to use back-up birth control the first week.

Medical Information:

Estraderm, estradiol transdermal system, is designed to release estradiol through a rate-limiting membrane continuously upon application to intact skin.

Estraderm
Estraderm is manufactured by Novartis Pharmaceuticals Inc. This medicine is an estrogen hormone used to provide female hormone when the body no longer produces enough. It is also used to help prevent osteoporosis (weakened bones). This medicine may also be used to treat cancer and other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Each Estraderm patch is individually sealed in a protective pouch and is applied directly to the skin. A stiff protective liner covers the adhesive side of the Estraderm patch. Remove the liner by sliding it sideways between your thumb and index finger. Holding the Estraderm patch at one edge, remove the protective liner and discard it. Try to avoid touching the adhesive. Use immediately after removing the liner. If you are using Alora, Vivelle, or Vivelle-Dot peel off one side of the protective liner and discard it. Use the other half of the liner as a handle until you have applied the sticky area, then fold back the remaining side of the patch, pull off the rest of the liner, and smooth the second half of the patch onto your skin. Apply the adhesive side to a clean, dry area of your skin on the trunk of your body (including the buttocks and abdomen). Do not apply to your breasts or waist. Firmly press the patch in place with the palm of your hand for about 10 seconds, to make sure the edges are flat against your skin. When first using Estraderm, start on the lower abdomen. Estraderm is applied only to the abdomen or upper buttock, and is pressed in place with the fingers. Contact with water during bathing, swimming, or showering will not affect the patch. The application site must be rotated. Allow an interval of at least 1 week between applications to a particular site. Alora, Esclim, Estraderm, Vivelle, and Vivelle-Dot patches should be replaced twice a week; Estraderm once weekly. --If you miss a dose...If you forget to apply a new Estraderm patch when you are supposed to, do it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time to change Estraderm patches anyway, skip the one you missed and go back to your regular schedule. Do not apply more than the prescribed number of Estraderm patches at a time.

--Storage instructions...

Store the Estraderm patches at room temperature, in their sealed pouches.

Estrofem
A gender reassignment program for male to female transsexuals normally includes the prescription of feminising hormones, oestrogen and progesterone which develop female secondary sexual characteristics. In addition this may be accompanied before surgery by anti-androgen treatment to reduce the effect of the patients own male sex hormones. There can be risks attached to hormone therapy in both men and women and therefore it is definitely inadvisable to take any form of hormone product unless it is medically prescribed.

Estrogens are powerful steroid hormones, chemicals which affect the form and function of the body and its organs.

There are three basic human estrogens: estradiol, estrone, and estrial. Estradiol is the most active form and estrial is the least active. In women, large amounts of estrogen are produced by the ovaries, and in men a small amount is present due to chemical conversion of testosterone

Estradiol tablet (Etrace, Estrofem). Take sublingually (under the tongue) in the morning and in the evening. Taking the tablets sublingually (letting them dissolve under the tongue) will largely give the same advantages as patches, gels or injectable.
