Hi, I am new here and new to menopause! I have recently started using vagifem to help with dryness and itching. Last night I started with painful skin one side of my groin(thought my underwear had rubbed) and along to my right thigh. There is nothing to see, no swelling, redness or heat but feelis like sunburn.........has anyone else experienced this? I did not use the vagifem this morning as I was worried. Is this a side effect that will subside? or do I contact my doctor ?
