Exhibit 5.1 November 26, 2012 TherapeuticsMD, Inc. 951 Broken Sound Parkway NW, Suite 320 Boca Raton, FL 33487 Re: Registration Statement on Form S-1 TherapeuticsMD, Inc.
Ladies and Gentlemen: We have acted as legal counsel to TherapeuticsMD, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the Registration Statement on Form S-1, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (as amended, the “Registration Statement”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Registration Statement relates to the registration of the resale of an aggregate of 3,953,489 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”). The Shares may be sold from time to time by certain stockholders of the Company (the “Selling Stockholders”) after the effective date of the Registration Statement. With respect to the opinion set forth below, we have examined originals, certified copies, or copies otherwise identified to our satisfaction as being true copies, of the Registration Statement and such other corporate records of the Company, agreements and other instruments, and certificates of public officials and officers of the Company, as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinion hereinafter expressed. As to various questions of fact material to such opinion, we have, where relevant facts were not independently established, relied upon statements of officers of the Company. Based solely upon the foregoing, and upon our examination of such questions of law and statutes as we have considered necessary or appropriate, and subject to the assumptions, qualifications, limitations, and exceptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that (a) the Shares have been lawfully and duly authorized; and (b) the Shares have been validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable. For purposes of our opinion, we also have assumed that the Company has paid all taxes, penalties, and interest which are due and owing to the state of Nevada. We express no opinion as to the applicability or effect of any laws, orders, or judgments of any state or other jurisdiction other than federal securities laws and the substantive laws of the state of Nevada. Further, our opinion is based solely upon existing laws, rules, and regulations, and we undertake no obligation to advise you of any changes that may be brought to our attention after the date hereof. We hereby expressly consent to any reference to our firm in the Registration Statement, to the inclusion of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement, and to the filing of this opinion with any other appropriate governmental agency.
