Everyone’s losing their minds over the FDA in the USA removing the black box warning on Vagifem and honestly it doesn’t change a single thing for Irish women💚
Our HPRA ( Health Products Regulatory Authority) has NEVER required that warning and Vagifem has been considered safe for many years. The HPRA is a very well respected authority worldwide and is in unison with other European health authorities on this important health matter.
Vagifem is known to relieve many perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms locally in the v***a, va**na and uterus in addition to its cancer protective benefits for women 🙌 and easing water works issues ( helps prevent repeated UTIs)
Sadly it’s not suitable for all women but for the majority it is very commonly prescribed by our GPs and gynaecologists throughout Ireland and used by hundreds of thousands of women safely every day. It is very well researched by reputable scientists over many decades.
So before you panic scroll or hop into the group chats, first remember this👇
Vagifem in Ireland is already approved safe regulated and well studied. Nothing’s changing for you. No drama needed.
If you’re dealing with menopause symptoms down below, local HRT like Vagifem can be a total game changer for many women. It improves symptoms similar to cystitis, improves intimate pleasure by reducing a feeling of dryness, helps support the pelvic floor by improving how the muscles work as women get older.
👉But as always chat to your own pharmacist and GP who actually know your meds and your history instead of the global headlines that don’t even apply to us.
🙏To my own patients. Honestly you’re grand. No drama here. Pop in for a chat if you need any reassurance. I got you 💪. I dispense it to my own wife I believe in it that much.
Share this with a friend who needs to hear this reassuring news 👍
