Why Osphena®? A key step towards better vaginal health and intimate comfort

Osphena® is a non-hormonal, oral prescription pill that could be the key you need to relieve symptoms of moderate to severe vaginal dryness and/or pain during sex due to menopause.
Osphena® has targeted on-site action in the vaginal tissue to lower vaginal pH, and improve overall vaginal health.
Many women choose Osphena® because it's a once daily option that directly treats the vaginal tissue - not just a temporary relief from symptoms. Simply take one Osphena® tablet daily with a meal.
Osphena® offers meaningful relief without any vaginal application. For many women, that's a big advantage—vaginal products can feel awkward, messy, or disruptive. An oral medication may be simpler, more private, and easier to fit into everyday life.
Think of Osphena® as a smart key: it's not an estrogen, but it selectively activates or “unlocks” estrogen receptors in the vaginal area where treatment is needed. This can be appealing for women who:
- Are experiencing specific vaginal symptoms after menopause as their most bothersome symptoms
- Are over the age where starting menopause hormone therapy as a treatment for vaginal dryness/painful sex is generally not recommended
- Cannot use or prefer not to use estrogen-based treatments due to medical history or other factors
For many women, Osphena® offers effective relief for these VVA symptoms without the use of estrogens – and it's an oral pill, so nothing has to be applied vaginally.
Osphena® has a BOXED WARNING for Endometrial Cancer and Cardiovascular Disorders.
