Hi ladies, this might seem a weird question! I have been on Ovestin 1mg cream for nearly 9 months now, and whilst it is helping with the slight urge incontinence I had, it's doing absolutely nothing for the feeling that theres' no 'stretch' in me down there anymore! This was the main reason I asked my GP if I could try it as I wanted to try and sort it out before I'm next called for a smear. I dread them trying to get a speculum in, but it was never a problem before peri & menopause.
I use the Ovestin applicator as directed, and put the dose high up inside, but that's not where I feel tight. It's right at the entrance to the vagina, sort of that band of muscle just inside. I'm wondering if it makes any difference where you put it, and should I be putting the Ovestin right where the tightness is instead?
Or maybe I just need to use it more often? I did see a useful thread where a lady said she had switched to using it every day and it improved her symptoms.
