Estrogel is an estrogenic agent for external use.
Pharmacological properties of Estrogel
According to the instructions, Estrogel contains the female sex hormone estrogen. It reduces the unpleasant symptoms that accompany menopause - heart attacks, hot flashes, increased sweating, nervousness, etc. Estrogen slows down bone loss of calcium during menopause. According to reviews, Estrogel has an effect on the body, comparable to the intake of estrogens inside.
During the use of the drug, the level of cholesterol in the blood decreases, the synthesis of vitamin-K-dependent blood coagulation factors increases in the liver.
Estrogel in gel form is intended for use on the skin. The gel base quickly evaporates from the surface and the estradiol is absorbed into the blood. Part of it is retained in the subcutaneous fatty tissue, which ensures the gradual entry of small amounts of the hormone into the bloodstream.
Due to the fact that the entry of estrogen into the body during the application of Estrogel occurs through the skin, it does not undergo transformation when passing through the liver. This makes it possible to achieve higher concentrations of the hormone in the blood compared to oral forms.
The transformation and excretion of the components of Estrogel from the body occurs in the same way as natural female hormones.
