Apple Overview
An apple is a type of fruit that grows on apple trees. They are a common and popular food, known for their sweet, tangy flavor and crisp texture. Apples come in a wide range of colors, including green, red, yellow, and pink, and are often eaten fresh or used in cooking.
Apples have been purported to have a number of potential health benefits, as they are a good source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals. They are also rich in antioxidants, which may help to protect against certain chronic diseases. In addition, apples may have a number of medicinal properties, including anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects.
Conjugated Estrogens Overview
-
The estradiol cypionate and estradiol valerate forms of estrogen injection are used to treat hot flushes (hot flashes; sudden strong feelings of heat and sweating) and/or vaginal dryness, itching, and burning in women who are experiencing menopause (change of life; the end of monthly menstrual periods). However, women who need a medication only to treat vaginal dryness, itching, or burning should consider a different treatment. These forms of estrogen injection are also sometimes used to treat the symptoms of low estrogen in young women who do not produce enough estrogen naturally. The estradiol valerate form of estrogen injection is also sometimes used to relieve the symptoms of certain types of prostate (a male reproductive organ) cancer. The conjugated estrogens form of estrogen injection is used to treat abnormal vaginal bleeding that a doctor has decided is caused only by a problem with the amounts of certain hormones in the body. Estrogen injection is in a class of medications called hormones. It works by replacing estrogen that is normally produced by the body.
