Brief Answer:
Please see below

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

all three drugs are hormone replacement drugs, namely estrogen replacement and are used to treat menopausal symptoms.

First of all, Enjuvia has been discontinued due to reported serious side effects, so I do not think it is an option.

While Estrace has proven quite effective, I personally recommend Premarin due to the fact that is a drug that has been in use for over 70 years now, with very good results, therefore the number of studies on this drug far outnumbers any other hormone replacement therapy drugs.

However, given the fact that drugus’ side effects are not the same in all people, I still recommend you work closely with your doctor to determine in which medication works best for you.

I hope this answers your question. You are welcome to ask any further questions you might have.

Wishing you good health and all the best.
