Thank you for your replies, it's nice to know I'm not Ali e, although wouldn't wish thus on anyone! 😟
Last night I used some E45 hc around anus and things feel a bit better this morning.
I thought I'd cracked it, as last week was a good week, you know when you aren't aware of your vagina, that it's ok!… then suddenly last Tuesday, it started feeling sore again, I think I may have left the estriole cream off in the morning in hind sight, and had just used yes VM.
Think I'm might use ovestin rather than estriole for a few days and use the e45 hc to calm area around back passage, and hope things improve again.
Hate all this, so confusing, and constantly trying to find solutions to it.
