Please could someone tell me whether it is ok to use Ovestin every night, or certainly more than twice a week, long term on the vulva and just inside?
I was prescribed it 4 weeks ago. The GP said I could use it for a maximum of two more weeks every night (6 in total) and then twice weekly only. Having had VA for years I have seen some improvement in comfort while sitting and walking since starting it but I still feel that I have to be careful not to sit for more than a few minutes and when I looked the skin is still very red in one patch in particular (although this is smaller than before, so the cream is definitely helping). I don't want to go back to how desperate I was feeling a few weeks ago, so am worried about dropping to twice a week while things are still so fragile, especially as this will happen over Xmas when it will be difficult to contact the GP.
Do things continue to improve if you drop to twice a week or just stay as they are?
Also does anyone have any suggestions for moisturising the whole outer area -not Sylk/Yes type moisturisers but something for sensitive, dry skin.
Grateful again for any advice. Thanks
