A low-dose estrogen therapy
 
  • Evamist contains low dose 17ß-estradiol, an estrogen chemically synthesized from a plant source.1 This does not mean Evamist is safer or more effective than other hormone therapies.
 
Women found Evamist easy to use
 
In the same study, convenience was the #1 Evamist attribute women found important.†1 On a scale from 1 to 9, with 9 being very easy to use, Evamist was ranked 8.3 for ease of use.1 With advantages like these…it’s no wonder women feel Evamist is convenient:
  • Cannot be seen or felt after application1
  • No need to touch the medication when applying2
  • Low site irritation and no residue1
  • Dries in a median of 67 seconds1
  • Covers a small area of skin1,2
After applying Evamist, simply wait at least 2 minutes before dressing and at least 30 minutes before washing. Others should not make contact with the application area for at least 30 minutes after application.2
 
Furthermore, among women who had previously used an estrogen patch,
3 out of 4 reported that Evamist was more convenient than their previous patch therapy.‡1
 
 
Higher satisfaction compared to previous estrogen therapies
 
Surveyed patients were very satisfied with the relief they experienced with Evamist (92% of these patients used 1 or 2 sprays per day).§1 And they were more satisfied overall versus previously used estrogen therapies including patches, pills, lotions, and gels.||1
