I've wondered this too. I use estriol because it helps the vulva area and the when I use it in the outside. It isn't however doing a great deal for the inside so was thinking of trying vagifem xx

Many women use both products. They contain two different oestrogens. Vagifem has estradiol,  Ovestin contains estriol. Estradiol is taken up by both alpa and beta oestrogen receptors, estriol by beta receptors only. Vagifem is great for the vagina, but not always effective for the labia. Ovestin can be applied directly to the labia in addition to being used internally. I'm not sure which is best for bladder issues though. Maybe either/both.
