Welcome.
Why is your GP provaactaing? [sp]
For the vaginal dryness, go to the Practice Nurse or GP and ask for appropriate treatment. This is different from generalised HRT. Make sure that your GP is aware of the over-extended waiting list!
The idea is to use either
Vagifem or
Ovestin every night for 2 weeks. Then as necessary or every 3rd and 5/6th night.
As oestrogen levels drop the body may become dry: nostrils, deep in the ears, skin, vagina (we have threads here
![Roll Eyes ::)](https://www.menopausematters.co.uk/forum/Smileys/extended/rolleyes.gif)
), so either of those products will plump up the vaginal tissues. VA can present as repeated urine infection-type symptoms but treatment should ease symptoms. Some ladies find that they need Sylc or Yes products for the outer lips ....... and the treatment is for Life.
Have a browse, using the search box for the products as well as reading the 'treatments' in the green banner above.
