For Vaginal Dryness "I started this medication about 3 months ago, and it had taken that long for it to work on me. Then I realized I’ve gained 10 pounds in those three months, and the hot flashes are extreme, with lots of sweating. Yes, it did what it was supposed to do, but I feel bloated, fat, sweaty, and have experienced leg cramps. Bottom line, not for me."

For Dyspareunia "Made a significant positive difference in post-menopause symptoms. However, substantial side effects, worst of which is facial edema with distortion to facial features. Tested this by stopping the med several times to clear it from the system, and when I did this, edema disappeared but reappeared once I resumed the drug. Also, strong hot flashes and sweating. No weight gain."

For Dyspareunia "Everyone is obviously so different. My experience wasn't even close to as positive as some of the others have mentioned. Thankfully, I received a physician's sample and did not purchase it. I took about 6 days' worth and noticed increased discharge. After taking it for another 7 days, I woke up with the worst headache. Headaches are very rare for me. Then I noticed some spotting on my underwear. By the evening, I was sweating heavily and just felt horrible. It was then that I decided to look up side effects. I have discontinued taking this medication. It's just not worth the side effects for me. Your mileage will certainly vary."

For Vaginal Dryness "I am having horrible headaches, leg cramps, drenched in sweat to the point where I am waking up in the middle of the night dehydrated, fatigue, and had none of that before taking. It started about a week into taking the pills. I am going to stop immediately and search for an alternative."

For Postmenopausal Symptoms "I took this medication for 3 months. The side effects are just not worth it. I experienced horrible hot flashes and sweating profusely. You will also gain weight on this medication. My doctor assured me that neither were a side effect... not true. Just read these reviews."
