I recently had a hysterectomy - everything was removed including my ovaries. Because I'm 39 I was told I will need to be on estrogen until I am 51. I was prescribed Ogen 0.625 (generic name: estropipate). Has anyone been on this before? I hate taking meds - am always worried about side effects. I would appreciate any information. Thanks

sorry i have never heard of it..but i suggest that you read carefully all the literature that you got with your perscription and you may even want to call the drug co that makes it with any questions you mite have...im sure you can find their toll free number on the net.....good luck

You can also go to webmd they give out good info on meds. So does medscape, it is on the webmd site. I didn't know you wouldn't have to take hormones the rest of your life. I had a total hyst at 23. WOW something to look forward to for me, no more hormones. They don't agree with me.
Hope those sites help you.
