- Estriol 2.5 mg is the weakest and the safest against the effects of possible cancer caused by estrogen dominance.
- It can be utilized to help women withdraw from estradiol preparations.
- It can help with hot flashes or night sweats.
- Estriol can be beneficial to the skin and bones.
- Estriol will eliminate vaginal dryness in 10-14 days when used intravaginally (a 2.5 mg strength).
- Estrogen receptors are present in the gut, and estrogen has been shown to have a protective effect on the gut lining. As women enter menopause and experience a decline in estrogen levels, these protective effects may diminish. Changes in estrogen levels can influence the abundance and diversity of gut bacteria.

Full size bottle: 3 oz or 85 grams
There are approximately 75 to 85 pumps per bottle. One pump is approximately one application 1/4 teas to the forearm daily or for vaginal see application below.
Estriol 2.5 mg is the weakest and, in our opinion, the safest against the effects of possible cancer caused by estrogen dominance.
For vaginal dryness:
1/4 tsp, of 2.5 mg in strength, applied with a vaginal applicator once per day, morning or evening. Dryness is normally relieved in 10 to 14 days.
Once the dryness is relieved you can use the cream as-needed, perhaps every two to four weeks. Another option to prevent dryness from recurring is to apply the cream once a day on a daily basis to the inner forearm.
For Fingertip Application:
Wash your hands with soap and water and dry thoroughly.
Pump our ¼ tsp (2.5 mg) of cream (about enough to cover the tip of your index finger, from the last joint to the fingertip).
Immediately above the vaginal opening is the urethra (a small opening where urine is eliminated from your body).
DHEA:
Recommended dose: one capsule in the AM
Serves as a precursor to male and female hormones
DHEA will always be decreased in the menopause. A blood test (not saliva test) is the best way of knowing how much to use.
If it is below 100, it is fairly safe to start with 25 mg/ day. Over 100, start with 10 mg per day. If no test is available, you can perhaps start with 25 mg M-W-F.
