Usage

Activella (Estradiol/Norethindrone Acetate) is a combination medication used to help reduce symptoms of menopause, such as hot flashes and vaginal dryness (source). Women may also use Activella after menopause to prevent osteoporosis. Activella replaces the estrogen in your body, which decreases naturally at menopause. This medication contains two female hormones, estrogen and progesterone. Estradiol is a form of estrogen; it regulates many processes in the body. Norethindrone is a progesterone; it regulates ovulation and menstruation. The progesterone in this medication helps to reduce the risk of cancer of the uterus that can be caused by using estrogen.

It is crucial to take this medication exactly as your doctor prescribes and refer to the package insert. Please consult with your doctor for personalized advice.
