After using vaginal estrogen cream on my face for over two years, I’m sharing my honest results, before-and-after changes, and the 5 things I wish I’d known before I started. Answering your FAQ: * Does estrogen cream for the face actually work? * Can it improve wrinkles, crepey skin, collagen loss, skin thinning, and elasticity? * What’s the difference between estriol and estradiol cream? * Can you use the vaginal estrogen cream you already have? * How/where to apply it? * Are there non hormone alternatives * Where can you get it? * Is it safe, and what does the former FDA black box warning really mean? Like many women in perimenopause and menopause, I experienced collagen loss, thinning skin, fine lines, wrinkles, reduced elasticity, and crepey skin. My lotions and potions just weren’t doing it. After learning estrogen cream being used on the face I tried it and I made some mistakes. Then I learned I could get a topical compounded estrogen cream, prescribed by my clinician and I’ve since been using a compounded estriol cream on my face for almost 2 years. I’ll share my complete two-year experience, including what improved, what didn’t, how long it took to see results, how I apply the cream, the mistakes I’d avoid if I were starting today, and how I obtained my prescription through Midi Health. I’ll also discuss what current research says about topical estrogen and facial skin so you can make a more informed decision. If you’re researching estrogen cream for your face, vaginal estrogen cream on the face, estriol cream for skin, menopause skincare, HRT and skin aging, collagen loss during menopause, or topical estrogen for wrinkles, this video is designed to answer the questions I wish someone had answered for me.
