I’m feeling really fed up at the end of my tether. Used Yes Yes moisturiser before starting Ovestin. At first the Ovestin was working it wasn’t perfect but I felt more comfortable, now it’s stopped after about 3 weeks. So fed up can’t keep on like this. Any advice please 🙏

[Flossieteacake]

Hello Tired Lady. Are you using ovestin every day? I find that helps. Also, there is a supplement called seabuckthorn. I have found that to be the most useful thing for the dryness. I buy capsules from Holland&Barrets.

3 weeks is still early on in your treatment so do not worry. It can take time for the dryness to improve.

I agree with Flossie. 3 weeks is early days. Use the Ovestin every day, perhaps twice a day - sparingly but getting it everywhere. It helps to (sorry) squat above a make-up mirror to be sure you really are getting it everywhere...(!).

Which YES moisturiser were you using? I find the YES OB to be much better than any of the others. The others are very watery and just come away easily whereas the YES OB is oil-based (organic plant oils) and it really lasts.

You could also try the internal YES VM applicators. You can buy them pre-loaded or (Cheaper) you can buy YES VM by itself in the big tube and then buy vaginal applicators separately in bulk on Amazon and load them with the YES VM - which works out cheaper, especially if you use each applicator a few times.

Try: Ovestin AM and PM. YES OB in the middle of the day. YES VM internally just before bed. Throw in some Vagifem pessaries too (internal local estrogen). Sorry, who would have thought looking after your vag could be a whole new hobby in its time consuming-ness

A new hobby  ............ 1 with thorns in it, 4 me it was like razor blades  up there 

It's important to use 'ovestin' and/or 'vagifem' regularly, especially in those 1st 3 months.

Flossuetracake - can you tell me more abiut the seabuckthorn. Never heard this before.

Dosage??? How komh did it take to work???

Thanks x

I found I needed both Vagifem and Ovestin, and I mainly use Vagifem internally and Ovestin externally. But every so often I will insert Ovestin. And I use it more often then two times a week.
At the moment I trying two nights then one night off.
I bought sea buckthorn but haven’t use it yet. I really don’t think I can afford to use it. On my bottle it says two tablets two times a day. That works out to $90 a month, so nearly a $1000 a year.
With all the Vagifem, Ovestin, Yes VM, Olive and Bee and now for my ass Rectogesic and a new one called Puracura at $50 a jar (and if it works it’s like VA, I will be using it for life.
I’ve never spent so much money on my vagina and ass

It is a natural supplement and helps to lubricate. I take one a day and I felt it started to work after about 3 weeks. Here is a link to some information for you.

What a shame it is so expensive were you are. It is £20 here and only 1 capsule a day is needed.

[joziel]

Lyncola, Olive and Bee is £18.99 here for 57ml and YES OB is £11 on Amazon for 150ml - so much cheaper. I find them about as good as each other, so go with the YES OB.

Flossieteacake thank you so much.

I've just ordered some. It seems to get good reviews for all sorts if dryness. I get a sinus issue - hormonally linked - I'm going to try it for that.

It says to take 4 tablets a day the durst 2 weeks. Did you do that? Or just take 1 a day???

I did not even notice that! I only take 1 a day every day. I have found it has really helps with vaginal dryness for me but not the dry eyes I get.

[CrispyChick]

Fabulous. One out of two isn't bad. 😁

Haha, maybe you could try one to see if that is enough for you? It would save money.

[Haydo]

I take sea buckthorn but found that one, and then I tried two, a day initially did nothing for me, so did the two week loading up (a bit like vagifem!) but now take just one a day.  It has helped me with VA and also my skin generally is less dry.

[CrispyChick]

Thanks haydo. So the 2 week loadng was needed to help and then reduce???
