hutchibk,

I wouldn't be so quick to throw the baby out with the bath water. Estrogel is used as systemic estrogen therapy, where Estrace cream is directed specifically to the vaginal cells, with the goal of keeping circulating estrogens to an absolute minimum. Estrogel is applied from the wrist to the shoulder; Estrace is applied directly to the vaginal area.

FYI, it is the third link Lani posted that has the black box warning.
