A member asked:
Is there anything wrong with taking the pill estradiol .05mg along with estrace cream 1%?

Possibly: This may reperesent an excess dose of estrogen. One product or the other should be used first to see if menopausal symptoms are relieved in order to keep the estrogen dose to a minimum.

No: Estrace (estradiol) vaginal cream will provide an estrogen supplement to keep the vagina supple and distensable. Oral Estradiol will travel to all estrogen receptors in your body including the brain.
