If Referring to Hormone Tablets Generally
Hormone tablets are oral medications containing hormones used for various therapeutic purposes, including contraception, hormone replacement therapy, gender-affirming care, and treatment of hormone-sensitive conditions.
Common Types of Hormone Tablets:
Estrogen-Based Preparations:
- Conjugated estrogens (such as Premarin) contain a mixture of estrogen compounds derived from natural sources, available in strengths of 0.3 mg, 0.45 mg, 0.625 mg, 0.9 mg, and 1.25 mg 1
- Transdermal 17β-estradiol is often preferred over oral formulations due to avoidance of first-pass hepatic metabolism and better cardiovascular risk profile 2
Progestin-Containing Tablets:
- Progestin-only pills (POPs) contain only progestin without estrogen and can be used by women of all ages 3
- Medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) 10 mg daily for 12-14 days per month provides endometrial protection in sequential hormone regimens 2
Combined Hormonal Contraceptives:
- Contain both estrogen and progestin components for contraceptive purposes 3
Gender-Affirming Hormone Therapy:
- Masculinizing therapy uses testosterone to help transgender men develop masculine characteristics 3
- Feminizing therapy uses estrogen-based preparations for transgender women 3
