Hiya ladies. Its come to light on another thread about vagifem that I might have not been inserting it correctly. I didnt want to hijack that thread but...
I'm so upset with myself. I just looked at the leaflet and it says "half way in". I've been putting it as far as it will go.
The entrance and a couple inches inside is so dry and I cant get on top of that for any more than a couple of hours at a time with estriol.. Even though it helps the vulva be a bit less dry.
Would the "restoring" part of the loading dose been lost on the lower vagina. If so, should I do the loading dose again inserting lower? It's only been 3 weeks since I finished the loading. But I feel like starting again.
Maybe the estriol and even the non hormonal "yes" would be more effective if my vagina had already been eastregonised lower down the canal during the loading dose which it probably wasnt as I've been putting it near my cervix.
No wonder my symptoms arent improving
My first thought was that ive read that the longer VA go3s untreated the harder it is to reverse. I might have given myself a harder hill to climb as during that time things have got worse and so I have wasted time doing it wrong and in effect not treating the problem which is lower down. So its got more severe and maybe i wont ever be able to reverse that damage. That thought just kills me and It's all my own fault. I'm so angry with myself.
