Dr. Zhang Jianhai
In general, estradiol valerate tablets may cause side effects, including breast tenderness, gastric discomfort, nausea, headache, weight changes, altered libido, and irregular vaginal bleeding. Estradiol valerate is an estrogenic medication and must be used strictly under a physician’s supervision. Patients should not increase the dosage without medical guidance, and regular physical examinations are required after a period of treatment.
