Hi,

Estrace contains estradiol, a female natural sex hormone called estrogen that is used in the treatment of post menopausal symptoms like vaginal dryness, itching or burning, hot flashes etc. Estrace is a safe and effective medication for vaginal vaginal discomfort due to menopause. Similarly, Femtrace also contains estradiol like Estrace that is also used in the treatment of symptoms of menopause. So, both Estrace and Femtrace contains estradiol and work in the same way. So anyone can take Estrace instead of Femtrace and it will be as effective as Femtrace.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
