Indivina

What is Indivina?

Indivina is an oral hormone replacement therapy used to manage menopausal symptoms and support bone health in women who still have a uterus. It contains a combination of oestrogen (estradiol) and progesterone (medroxyprogesterone acetate), helping to restore hormonal balance during menopause.

Indivina is available in different treatment regimens, including continuous and sequential options, allowing flexibility depending on individual needs and whether monthly bleeding is expected or not.

As a prescription treatment, Indivina should only be used under medical supervision. Patients can access Indivina prescription online through licensed UK providers following a clinical assessment.

What Is Indivina HRT Used For?

Indivina is used to relieve symptoms caused by reduced oestrogen levels during menopause and to provide additional protection against long-term health risks.

It may be prescribed for:

• Relief of menopausal symptoms such as hot flushes, night sweats, mood changes, and vaginal dryness
• Support for sleep disturbances and emotional well-being
• Prevention of osteoporosis in postmenopausal women at increased risk of fractures
• Protection of the uterine lining through the combined action of oestrogen and progesterone

Indivina is particularly suitable for women who require combined hormone therapy, as the progesterone component helps reduce the risk of endometrial overgrowth associated with oestrogen-only treatments.

How Do Indivina Tablets Work?

Indivina tablets work by replacing the hormones that naturally reduce during menopause (oestrogen and progesterone) to restore hormonal balance and relieve symptoms.

During menopause, the drop in oestrogen levels leads to symptoms such as:

• Hot flushes and night sweats
• Vaginal dryness and discomfort
• Mood swings, irritability and sleep issues

The drop in the body’s oestrogen levels can also lead to bone thinning (osteoporosis).

Indivina tablets increase the body’s oestrogen levels and relieve these symptoms as well as maintain bone strength.

The oestrogen component in Indvina HRT tablets can cause endometrial overgrowth, this can increase the risk of endometrial cancer. The progesterone component protects against this and causes the endometrial lining to stay thin.

The combined effect of progesterone and estrogen in Indivina help relieve menopausal symptoms, maintain bone strength and protect uterine health.

Who Can Take Indivina?

Indivina is suitable for postmenopausal women who need hormonal replacement therapy but still have a uterus. The oestrogen component in Indivina builds up levels lost in menopause whereas the progesterone component protects the womb lining.

Women experiencing menopausal symptoms such as hot flushes, night sweats, mood swings, vaginal irritability and sleep disturbances can take Indivina tablets to relieve symptoms.

The progesterone component in Indivina helps protect the uterine lining from overgrowth, whereas the oestrogen component relieves menopausal symptoms.

• Women that are pregnant or breastfeeding
• Women who have previously had breast cancer or uterine cancer

• Women who have a history of blood clots (deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism)
