This medication is a female hormone. It is used by women to help reduce symptoms of menopause (such as hot flashes, vaginal dryness). These symptoms are caused by the body making less estrogen. If you are using this medication to treat symptoms only in and around the vagina, products applied directly inside the vagina should be considered before medications that are taken by mouth, absorbed through the skin, or injected. Certain estrogen products may also be used by women after menopause to prevent bone loss (osteoporosis). However, there are other medications (such as raloxifene, bisphosphonates including alendronate) that are also effective in preventing bone loss and may be safer. These medications should be considered for use before estrogen treatment. Certain estrogen products may also be used by men and women to treat cancers (certain types of prostate cancer, breast cancer that has spread to other parts of the body) and by women who are not able to produce enough estrogen (for example, due to hypogonadism, primary ovarian failure).

Uses
Premarin Vaginal Cream (conjugated estrogens) is a vaginal cream prescribed to treat menopausal changes in and around the vagina. It’s also prescribed to treat painful intercourse caused by menopausal changes of the vagina.
When a woman’s body makes less estrogen due to menopause, the vaginal walls may become thin, dry, and inflamed. These changes can make sexual intercourse painful and can also cause urinary discomforts.
Premarin Vaginal Cream is a cream that comes with a special applicator to apply the cream directly to the vagina. The cream contains a mixture of estrogen hormones that can help rebuild vaginal tissue.
Dosage
Premarin Vaginal Cream comes in a 30-gram tube. Each gram contains 0.625 mg of conjugated estrogens. The tube comes with a vaginal applicator used to apply up to 2 grams of cream.
