Estring Warnings
This prescription medication should not be used if you have a known allergy to estradiol or any inactive ingredients it may contain. It is also contraindicated for people or patients with a history of blood clots, stroke, heart disease, endometrial cancer, breast cancer, cancer of the uterus or ovaries, liver problems, kidney disease, angioedema, hypertension, diabetes, obesity, lupus, high cholesterol levels, mineral imbalance, hypothyroidism, hypoparathyroidism, uterus problems, gallbladder disease, seizures, porphyria, any mental or mood disorders.
Also, because of possible drug interactions, you should talk about all prescription drugs, nonprescription drugs, and supplements you are taking.
Avoid smoking or using tobacco while on Estring as they contain substances that could increase the risk of blood clots. Being confined in a certain position, such as going on a long-haul flight, can also lead to blood clots and strokes.
You should also limit your exposure to the sun and wear sunblock cream because estradiol can cause dark blotchy areas on the skin or face called melasma.
How does Estrogen work?
Each Estring ring can release estradiol in a stable and consistent manner for 90 days. This type of medication works by developing and/or maintaining the female reproductive system and secondary sexual characteristics. It also helps in modulating the pituitary secretion of luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, and gonadotropins.
