Please have a look at the questionnaire page if you have a spare minute.
Vagifem and Vagirux don't come as a course, but are intended to be used forever at whatever maintenance dose suits you. Symptoms will return if you stop using it. Local oestrogen is such a low dose, and is generally not absorbed systemically, so it seems unlikely that it would be implicated in unexpected bleeding. Good that you're getting checked out though.JP x
I wonder if it depends on the level of dryness? These seem strange trains of thought from gps as, if needed, they're needed continuously and for life. Otherwise symptoms just return. Perhaps that's what's "covered" with the leaflet. They're definitely never used as "courses". Vagirux loaders are coarser than Vagifem. Try to hold out for Vagifem and try coating the loader in YES VM or even request a cream like Ovestin to help. Good luck.
Hi Jules. Could you post the link where it's mentioned that we need to take breaks from Vagifem/Vagirux please. As others have said it is to be used forever and continuously on whichever regime gives relief. I've never been advised to take a break and have been using it (along with full HRT) for the past 13 years. It's easy to miss changes in advice on usage.Thanks for the Vagirux link.Taz x
Have you thought of e-mailing Dr. Currie from this site so that you have a neutral, but highly knowledgeable opinion? You might feel more reassured that way about what's happening. You just tap on CONTACT at the very top of the page in black and send a small fee for some really great, professional recommendations. Good luck with it all anyway!
