Yuvafem is used to treat moderate to severe symptoms of vulvar and vaginal atrophy (atrophic vaginitis), including vaginal dryness, burning, itching, and pain during intercourse, that occur due to decreased estrogen levels during menopause.

As an estrogen replacement, Yuvafem delivers estradiol directly to the vaginal tissues, helping to restore estrogen levels and improve vaginal health, pH, and lubrication.

Yuvafem is a local vaginal treatment with minimal systemic absorption. It may not be suitable for women with certain cancers, unexplained vaginal bleeding, liver disease, or those at risk for blood clots. A healthcare provider should evaluate symptoms and determine if this treatment is appropriate. The lowest effective dose should be used for the shortest duration consistent with treatment goals.
