Premarin Vaginal Cream is proven to help relieve painful intercourse due to menopause.
What is Premarin Vaginal Cream?
Premarin Vaginal Cream is a proven treatment for changes in the vaginal tissue after menopause that can cause painful intercourse and dryness. It is a topical estrogen cream that has been prescribed for over 65 years.
While using it, Premarin Vaginal Cream helps:
- Reverse vaginal thinning and dryness
- Restore your natural ability to create your own lubrication
- Relieve painful intercourse due to menopause when used just twice weekly
When used as prescribed, Premarin Vaginal Cream allows you to maintain this reversal and vaginal tissue improvement. That's something no over-the-counter product was designed to do. And with a variety of dosing options, your doctor can tailor your treatment to your needs.
How Premarin Vaginal Cream works
Premarin Vaginal Cream treats painful intercourse after menopause by delivering a blend of estrogens directly to the tissues in and around your vagina — where it's needed most. Because it is a topical treatment, it's able to treat the underlying cause of painful intercourse right at its source.
When used just twice a week, Premarin Vaginal Cream restores vaginal tissue that provides the lubrication you're missing, so intercourse can be more comfortable. Apply Premarin Vaginal Cream as directed by your health care professional.
Each gram contains 0.625mg of conjugated estrogen USP.
