Hi,
I posted earlier about embarrassing noises and wind coming from my vaginal area and a watery discharge ( I’m also on HRT, but I have a history of poor eostregen absorption) and I was advised that it sounded like VA.
I don’t have any other symptoms apart from ‘wind’, discharge, dryness , slight itchiness now and then with a little bit of soreness. I have no urinary issues or UTIs like some have with their VA.
I do have Vagifem already prescribed by a private menopause specialist, but I’m unable to use the applicator that comes with the pessaries, or insert them. I’ve never been very good with inserting anything into that area and I never even wore tampons because of that very same issue.
When I was given Vagifem, I had the option of other VA treatments, but I chose that, as she said it was less messy, but perhaps I should have gone with a ‘messier’ option after all. I feel I don’t need anything strong, just something that would ease the symptoms above if poss. Please can any of you advise what I could ask for instead that is easier to use? I was thinking of sending her an email and asking fir a new prescription, as my follow up with her isn’t due until September.
Thankyou,
Teresa
