Video Library
A library of discussions led by national experts Dr Anne Connolly, Dr Diana Mansour and Nurse Specialist Consultant Nikki Noble.
The videos cover a range of very useful, relevant and important topics, including How Blissel® works, the time until Blissel® takes effect, and how to use an applicator.
Women need support and treatment guidance

Blissel® is formulated as a mucoadhesive gel, using specialist polycarbophylic ingredients, which leads to a moisturising effect, whilst also making sure that the active hormone is not lost.2
Products not formulated with mucoadhesive ingredients may end up being in contact with the vaginal tissue for a shorter time and may lead to leakage.2

The British Menopause Society advocates the lowest HRT dose that will effectively manage a patient’s symptoms should be prescribed for vaginal atrophy.3
Formulations that contain a low dose of estriol, such as Blissel®, can lead to lower systemic absorption.4
How treatment formulation may affect patient experience

By using specialist polycarbophylic ingredients, Blissel® is formulated as a mucoadhesive gel, delivering a moisturising effect and also ensuring that the active hormone is not lost.2
Using non-mucoadhesive products may lead to a shorter contact time with the vaginal tissue and may cause leakage.2
Guidelines advocating to use the lowest HRT dose that will effectively manage a patient’s VA symptoms have been produced by The British Menopause Society.3
Lower systemic absorption may be achieved by using formulations that contain a low dose of estriol, such as Blissel®.4
