Vagirux advice needed
« on: May 24, 2022, 10:52:50 AM »

Morning all , I used before for the first 2 weeks had sex which was fine now been in it twice a week and sex is like cutting glass and so painful which causes slight bleeding as it feels like it is ripping during intercourse . Anyone else experienced this after going on the twice a week dose . Any advice welcome

I know the advice is to reduce it to twice a week but I think when symptoms are bad, it is best to use it daily. I use ovestin daily and have no intention of stopping.

I have used Vagifem daily for a few years now. I have never managed on the twice a week dosing.

They don't prescribe Vagifem anymore...at least to me. It's Vagirux now...way cheaper!

Weeloz, have you tried using vaginal moisturiser in-between?

Which thread do you want to continue with ?

I did a quick search in case there is a shortage:

Vagifem pessaries (also called vaginal tablets) are available on prescription from The Independent Pharmacy for menopausal women.
To get Vagifem delivered directly to your door, complete a short online consultation with us today.


If you are unable to get 'vagifem' from your GP ask for a referral to a specific menopause clinic or send a query to Dr Currie, for which there is a charge.
