Bioequivalence study: 3 mg Estradiol Valerate (EV) with and without levomefolate calcium

Trial purpose

Investigation of the bioequivalence (BE) of Estradiol Valerate (EV) after administration of one film-coated tablet containing 3 mg Estradiol Valerate and 0.451 mg Levomefolate calcium as compared to one film-coated tablet containing 3 mg Estradiol Valerate
Investigation of the bioequivalence of levomefolate calcium after administration of one film-coated tablet containing 3 mg Estradiol Valerate and 0.451 mg Levomefolate calcium as compared to one film-coated tablet containing 0.451 mg levomefolate calcium
