Information
Femoston-2/10 is a hormone replacement therapy (HRT) medication primarily prescribed to alleviate symptoms associated with menopause, such as hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, and vaginal dryness. It contains two active ingredients: estradiol (2 mg), a form of estrogen, and dydrogesterone (10 mg), a progestogen. This combination is designed to mimic the natural hormones in the body and is particularly used in women who have not had their uterus removed. Estradiol helps replenish estrogen levels, which decrease during menopause, while dydrogesterone is added to protect the lining of the uterus from the harmful effects that can occur with estrogen-only treatments. Femoston-2/10 is typically taken in a cyclical pattern, intended to mimic the natural menstrual cycle, and is used for both symptom relief and the prevention of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women.
