Vaginal Estrogen Use Safe Among Postmenopausal Women,

reported that in a study, “vaginal estrogen use was found to be safe among postmenopausal women.” Investigators “found vaginal estrogen use was not associated with any increased risk for a global index event.” MedPage Today added that the “findings were similar among users with an intact uterus (HR 0.63, 95% CI 0.51-0.77) or who have undergone a hysterectomy (HR 0.83, 95% CI 0.63-1.08) after adjustment for age, education, prior estrogen use, and a history of cancer, CVD, or DVP/PE.” The findings were presented at the annual meeting of the North American Menopause Society. https://www.medpagetoday.com/meetingcoverage/nams/68526
