VA non hormonal help
Jenna:
Hyacinth - just to say you can also buy 'Yes' water-based on Amazon and Ebay, as well as from the 'Yes' website - hope that might help as you are not in the UK!
Hurdity:
Hi Hyacinth - I know you are asking about non-hormonal creams, but you could always swap to estriol cream which is much much weaker oestrogen but still has the same beneficial effect on the vaginal tissues. Have a look at the preparations here http://www.menopausematters.co.uk/local.php - there is Ovestin 0.1% or generic estriol ( formerly Gynest) which is weaker (but you use more) at 0.01%.

Thanks Hurdity, I will take that list with me to the gynaecologist when I go! Plucking up the courage to make an appointment at the moment as it is not a very pleasant experience these days. :(
CLKD:
What's the problem? Attitude or the examination?

VA seems to be a real problem for non hrt treatment. Good luck at the doctors. Please let us know how you get on. :)
