Frequently Asked Questions for Bijuve 1mg Capsules
What are Bijuve Capsules?
Bijuve capsules provide a novel, all-in-one oral HRT option for managing menopausal symptoms in postmenopausal women. The treatment combines oestradiol and progesterone, which are chemically identical to the body’s natural hormones. It is ideal for women seeking relief from menopausal symptoms while maintaining endometrial protection, without needing separate HRT components.
How Does Bijuve Work?
Bijuve combines two hormones:
- Oestradiol: Replaces declining oestrogen levels, alleviating menopausal symptoms such as hot flushes, night sweats, and vaginal dryness.
- Progesterone: Protects the uterus lining (endometrium) from the risks associated with oestrogen-only therapy, such as endometrial hyperplasia or cancer.
By restoring hormone balance, Bijuve effectively reduces discomfort and enhances quality of life during menopause.
How to Take Bijuve Capsules
- Dosage: Take one capsule daily at the same time each day, with or without food.
- Continuous Use: Do not take breaks between packs—start the next pack immediately after finishing the current one.
- Missed Dose: If you miss a dose, take it within 12 hours. If more than 12 hours have passed, skip the missed dose and continue as normal (do not double the dose).
Always follow your doctor’s instructions and review your treatment annually.
Side Effects of Bijuve Capsules
Like all medications, Bijuve may cause side effects, though not everyone experiences them. Common side effects include:
- Vaginal bleeding or spotting.
- Breast tenderness or pain.
- Nausea or abdominal discomfort.
- Weight gain (primarily due to water retention).
- Headaches or migraines.
- Mood changes, including depression or irritability.
- Swelling in the legs or arms.
Rare but serious side effects include signs of blood clots (e.g., leg pain, chest pain, or breathlessness) or liver issues (e.g., yellowing of the skin or eyes). Consult your doctor if you experience any unusual symptoms.
Warnings and Precautions
Do not take Bijuve if:
- You have or have had breast cancer or other oestrogen-dependent cancers.
- You have unexplained vaginal bleeding or untreated endometrial hyperplasia.
- You have a history of blood clots, stroke, or heart attack.
- You have liver disease or porphyria.
- You are pregnant, breastfeeding, or allergic to any of Bijuve’s ingredients.
Inform your doctor if you have medical conditions such as high blood pressure, diabetes, or a history of migraines, as these may require monitoring during treatment.
