Hi Everyone
And thank you Tricia for welcoming me. It's great that we are all connected by our menopausal issues. Wouldn't it have been great if we had this kind of forum when we were going through puberty and first love, etc!! ?
I posted my first message a couple of days ago, before going to the doctor. I went yesterday and she actually asked me what medication I wanted!! So, obviously I said VagiFem and she prescribed it immediately, saying that it's such a change to have a patient who has taken the time to research her problems and to come up with a solution for her! The doctor told me that they are brilliant and work within a week.
I used the little tablets for the first time yesterday. I can honestly say that they are really small and sit very high up in the vagina and do not drop out nor do I have any kind of discharge. I am really excited at the prospect of not experiencing the awful dryness when we next "do" it (which won't be for a while cos of our teenage kids!) Roll on September and off to UNI!!. So, with that thought, I will leave you and I will report back on the results of the first time after using the Vagifem tablets.
Everyone here is so kind and thoughtful - we don't have to suffer in silence anymore.
