Verified Ingredients and Effects

Uses:

Treatment of Menopause

Medicinal Benefits:

Premarin Tablet contains ‘conjugated estrogens’, which is used for hormone replacement therapy (HRT). In menopause, estrogen levels become too low, so Premarin Tablet works by replacing this hormone.  It also regulates the secretions of other hormones from the pituitary gland, such as luteinizing hormone (LH) (necessary for sexual function and the menstrual cycle) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) (regulates the menstrual cycle). These effects help to reduce the symptoms of menopause.
