Buy Vagirux Online in the UK
Vagirux is a member of a class of drugs known as vaginal Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), it contains 24 doses per pack and is easy to use as it comes with a multiple-use applicator.
Vagirux is used to treat menopausal vaginal symptoms like dryness or irritation. This is referred to as "vaginal atrophy" in medical jargon. It results from a decrease in oestrogen levels in your body. Naturally, this occurs following menopause.
Vagirux functions by substituting the oestrogen that a woman's ovaries naturally generate. In order to release the hormone where it is needed, it is injected into your vagina. This might ease vaginal discomfort
Vagirus is the same as Vagifem Vaginal Oestrogen tablets 10mcg, these tablets are available with free online doctor consultation.
