Indications & Usage
1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE Yuvafem is an estrogen (estradiol) indicated for the treatment of atrophic vaginitis due to menopause ( 1.1 ) 1.1 Treatment of Atrophic Vaginitis due to Menopause
Dosage and Administration
2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION Generally, when estrogen is prescribed for a postmenopausal woman with a uterus, consider addition of a progestogen to reduce the risk of endometrial cancer. Generally, a woman without a uterus does not need to use a progestogen in addition to her estrogen therapy. In some cases, however, hysterectomized women with a history of endometriosis may need a progestogen [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3 , 5.15) ] . Use of estrogen-alone, or in combination with a progestogen, at the lowest effective dose and for the shortest duration consistent with treatment goals and risks for the individual woman. Reevaluate postmenopausal women periodically as clinically appropriate to determine if treatment is still necessary. Administer Yuvafem intravaginally: 1 insert daily for 2 weeks, followed by 1 insert twice weekly (for example, Tuesday and Friday) (2.1) 2.1 Treatment of Atrophic Vaginitis due to Menopause Administer Yuvafem intravaginally using the supplied applicator: 1 insert daily for 2 weeks, followed by 1 insert twice weekly (for example, Tuesday and Friday).
