Comment:
I have taken this medication since 1991 with no problems or side effects. I works perfectly for me where the generic did not. I did try other brands, but they caused problems with my vision. I have no trouble with Estrace. But it is terribly expensive.

Cream works well, applicator is poorly designed, unhygienic.

Comment:
I started taking 1 mg of Estrace a day in 2001 after a complete hysterectomy to combat hot flashes. I am now 60 years old and still feel 49, with no grey hair! No side effects whatsoever.

Comment:
I've only been on this med for 2 weeks and will remain on it for 1 month just to be fair and allow it to work its way through my system. Side effects, yes, one: body aches. I'm a runner and hiker and this tiny pill is proving to be a pill. Because I know my estrogen level is low, I will give it a fair shot. I just don't like when anything interferes with my workout regiment.
