Here are my comments on some of today’s health headlines:

FDA Approves Spray-On Estrogen to Treat Menopause

The FDA has approved a form of spray-on estrogen called Evamist, which contains estrodial in ethanol.

Evamist is sprayed on the inside of a woman’s forearm, dries clear in one minute, and is said to be slowly released over a 24-hour period. Supposedly, it cannot be washed off and it won’t transfer to other people.
