Provides TX-004HR Regulatory Update

RATON, Fla. - August 10, 2017 - TherapeuticsMD, Inc. (NYSE MKT: TXMD), an innovative women's healthcare

company, today announced a regulatory update regarding the New Drug Application (NDA) for TX-004HR, the company's investigational

applicator-free estradiol vaginal softgel capsule for the treatment of moderate-to-severe vaginal pain during sexual intercourse

(dyspareunia), a symptom of vulvar and vaginal atrophy (VVA) due to menopause.

July 5, 2017, the Company submitted additional endometrial safety information to the FDA, as requested by the Agency, to address

the only approvability issue raised in the Complete Response Letter (CRL) for the NDA for TX-004HR, which was the lack of long-term

safety data beyond the 12 weeks studied in the REJOICE Trial.

Company has received a formal General Advice Letter from the FDA stating that an initial review of this information has been completed

and requesting that the Company submit the additional endometrial safety information to the NDA for TX-004HR on or before September

18, 2017, including the safety data from a very large, observational study of long-term, real-world users of vaginal estrogens

that is pending publication.

FDA requested approximately six weeks to perform a comprehensive review of these data and has requested a meeting with the Company

to discuss the outcome of this review. A tentative meeting date of November 3, 2017 has been set by the Agency. At this meeting,

the Company expects to learn if this additional endometrial safety data addresses the lack of long-term safety identified in the

CRL. The Company currently plans to re-submit the NDA for TX-004HR shortly thereafter.

are very pleased with the FDA's decision to conduct this comprehensive review and believe that the short timeline and the

resources that the FDA has committed demonstrate the significance of the long-term observational study and other information that

we provided the Agency," said TherapeuticsMD CEO Robert G. Finizio. "We believe this is an important step towards

the approval of our NDA for TX-004HR and we look forward to working collaboratively with the FDA."

Company will host a conference call and live audio webcast to discuss this announcement on Thursday, August 10. The conference

call and webcast will take place at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time (ET). TherapeuticsMD Chief Executive Officer Robert G. Finizio and

Chief Clinical Officer Dr. Brian Bernick will host the call.
