What is IMVEXXY?

IMVEXXY is a vaginal insert used to treat moderate to severe pain during sex (dyspareunia) in postmenopausal women. This pain is a symptom of vaginal and vulvar atrophy, a condition caused by reduced estrogen levels after menopause.

How Does IMVEXXY Work?

IMVEXXY contains estradiol, a form of estrogen. It helps to reduce vaginal dryness and discomfort by providing estrogen directly to the vaginal tissues.

How to Use IMVEXXY

1. Dosage:
   • Initial Dose (First 2 Weeks): Insert one IMVEXXY vaginal insert into your vagina once a day at the same time each day.
   • Maintenance Dose: After the first 2 weeks, insert one IMVEXXY vaginal insert into your vagina twice a week (e.g., Monday and Thursday).
2. Administration:
   • Wash and dry your hands.
   • Remove one insert from the blister pack by pushing it through the foil.
   • Hold the insert with the larger end between your fingers.
   • Insert the smaller end about two inches into your vagina using your finger.

What to Do if You Miss a Dose

If you miss a dose, insert it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose. Do not insert two doses at the same time.
