Estriol USP cream is a bioidentical hormone support used for women who don't have enough estrogen. This particular medicine is not taken orally, but rather applied to the skin like lotion. The hormones are absorbed through the skin when applied properly.
Instructions
1. Choose a hairless portion of your body to apply the Estriol cream. Palms, inner arms, chest, neck and the backsides of your knees are ideal places because your skin is thinner in those places and can absorb the lotion more quickly.
2. Clean the desired area of skin. Estriol must be be applied to clean skin.
3. Rub the prescribed amount of Estriol into your skin.
4. Apply the lotion twice a day unless otherwise noted by your doctor. If you find that you have trouble sleeping after starting Estriol, apply the cream four hours before bed.
5. Switch to different areas of your body each time you apply Estriol. Allow four applications between each use of the same skin area. This keeps one area from becoming overly saturated.
