Why choose weight loss medication?

GLP-1 receptor agonists are changing the way weight loss is approached. Originally developed to support people with type 2 diabetes, these medications are now widely recognised for their effectiveness in weight management.

GLP-1 weight loss treatments work by mimicking natural hormones that help regulate appetite, slow digestion, and increase feelings of fullness. This makes it easier to reduce calorie intake and supports sustainable, long-term weight loss.

Clinically proven weight loss treatments

Proven results, backed by science

Medications targeting GLP-1 receptors offer clinically proven results for people living with obesity or weight-related health conditions. These treatments are not quick fixes. They form part of a longer-term medical approach designed to support a healthier lifestyle.

By reducing hunger signals and increasing feelings of fullness, GLP-1 therapies can help patients lose a meaningful percentage of their body weight when combined with appropriate lifestyle changes.

Product details

Medication type

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) containing estradiol, a natural oestrogen.

Active ingredient

Estradiol

Generic

Yes

Side effects

Breast tenderness, bloating, nausea, headaches, mood changes, or light vaginal bleeding may occur.
Less commonly: fluid retention, skin rashes, weight gain, or irritation at the application site.
Contact a doctor immediately if you experience chest pain, shortness of breath, jaundice, or sudden swelling of the legs.

Works within

Oestrogel contains estradiol, an oestrogen identical to that naturally produced by the ovaries. It works by restoring oestrogen levels in postmenopausal women, helping to relieve symptoms related to hormonal deficiency such as hot flushes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, and sleep disturbances.

Effective in

You may notice some relief within the first few weeks, but it typically takes 8 to 12 weeks of treatment to fully restore the vaginal tissue and eliminate dryness or pain. Consistency is key.

FAQs

Veuillez consulter notre page FAQ pour en savoir plus.

How is this different from Oestrogel?

Oestrogel is a "systemic" HRT that treats whole-body symptoms like hot flushes and night sweats. Vagirux is a "local" HRT that only treats vaginal dryness and discomfort. Many women use both together: Oestrogel for the hot flushes, and Vagirux for extra comfort "down there."

Can I have sex while using this?

Yes. Vagirux helps restore comfort, making sex less painful. It is recommended to insert the tablet after sexual activity (before sleep) to ensure it stays in place and is not dislodged.

Can I use lubricants while using Vagirux?

Yes. You can safely use non-hormonal lubricants or moisturizers alongside Vagirux, especially during sexual activity or while waiting for the treatment to take full effect.

Do I need to take Progesterone with this?

Generally, No. Because the dose of hormone is very low and stays within the vaginal tissue, it does not usually thicken the womb lining. Therefore, most women do not need to take an additional progesterone capsule (like Utrogestan) when using Vagirux alone.

Is this messy to use?

No. Unlike creams or gels which can sometimes leak, Vagirux is a small "dry" tablet that adheres to the vaginal wall and dissolves slowly. It is generally considered a clean and mess-free solution.
