- Proper functioning of the cardiovascular system.

Treatment of Hypoestrogenism: these tablets may be used to treat hypoestrogenism (low estrogen levels) caused by various medical conditions, such as premature ovarian failure or other conditions that affect ovarian function.
Palliative Treatment of Prostate Cancer: In some cases, it may be used off-label in the treatment of advanced prostate cancer to help manage symptoms or slow disease progression.
