Update on using ovestin and persistent uti symptoms. Saw my gp this week, face to face, a major achievement to a phone call. She was helpful and said to use ovestin every day till symptoms subside and alternate after and re assured me of its safety and gave me extra supplies. I explained to her how using dilators aggravates symptoms and that I daren't have sex for the same reason. She encouraged me to do both, and I know this is the advice for VA. But when it feels settled down there, I am reluctant to trigger those horrible feelings again by using a dilator, let alone sex. Any advice as I feel a bit stuck. My lovely partner suggested not doing dilator or sex until I feel more confident. I am concerned that the longer I leave it, the less inclined I will be to do anything down there!
Any help gratefully received!
