About Estogel Gel

Estogel Gel contains ''estradiol'', which works by replacing the oestrogen, which is normally produced by the ovaries, thereby providing relief from menopausal symptoms.

In some cases, Estogel Gel may cause side effects such as headache, breast pain or tenderness, diarrhoea, gas and heartburn. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.

Consult your doctor if you are pregnant, think you are pregnant, are planning for pregnancy or are breastfeeding. Avoid smoking or going near open flame until Estogel Gel has dried as it may catch fire. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and medicines to rule out any side effects/interactions.
