Vagifem Update

(1/5) > >>

Lynne888:
Well, time flies and it's already been over 3 months since I started using vagifem. You may recall my GP said I couldn't use it longer than three months and I have the dreaded appointment to discuss it with her on Tuesday. Things have continued to improve for me over the three months, the only thing I've noticed this past few weeks is a clear discharge sometimes when I go to the loo. I'm assuming this is normal but not sure. My frequent urination has been the best it has been in 2 years but that has got a little bit worse this past few days but nothing like how it used to be. Basically vagifem has changed my life so I have to argue the point on Tuesday to make sure I can stay on it. I will be mentioning this forum and the fact that some have been using vagifem for years ! I will update on Tuesday!

Hi Lynne
Just to say, good luck on Tuesday! This quote from the menu on the left might help persuade your gp:-
Low dose vaginal estrogen preparations can be used long term without causing any known systemic effect, and without needing any progestogenic protection of the lining of the womb.
Let us know how you get on.

Right hun
March in with the paper and say
OH IM so happy oyu gave it to me my fanny OK use Vagina is wonderful
Sex fabtastic Weeing wonderful and I didnt know I could be on it for ever till I got the info
If she starts then just say you have no right to refuse me on medical grounds is it Monetry
You have to fight because 2 weeks from now with no Vagifem you will be right back to 3mnths ago and it will be worse

Lynne888:
I'll panic if she doesn't leave me on it! I shall do just as you suggest!
