How does estradiol hemihydrate work in Linoladiol N?+
Estradiol hemihydrate binds to estrogen receptors ERα and ERβ, forming a complex that regulates transcription of estrogen‑responsive genes. This restores normal estrogenic activity in tissues like the vaginal epithelium, bone, and cardiovascular system.
