Definitely friction now that is affecting me.

Friction from walking.

Lets hope I'm on the mend x

[Chihuahuachick]

Well had less soreness today from the friction at work.

So lets hope a corner has been turned x

Great news. It's good days and bad days, but after a while the good outweigh the bad.

Thanks for the encouragement.

I need it at the moment x

Can anyone tell.me if they still keep on moisturising after the burning has gone?

Obviously I will still use the ovestin internally.

[Joaniepat]

Yes, I generally use moisturiser externally. It's like you'd use moisturiser on your face, you wouldn't just stop. Well, I wouldn't! It all depends how you feel I guess, as everyone's different.

Yes keep as moist as possible all the time.  I always drink plenty of water too and that helps.   Try to stay positive.  It's all really difficult.  X

[Chihuahuachick]

Thank you x

Yes I will keep on with the moisturiser. It makes sense. Think I was dreaming thinking I could get away with it!!!!!

Also while I'm here, if I go on the combined pill would it stop the vaginal dryness? Or is it likely too. The doctor wants me to go on it to help with the risk of osteoporosis?

Sorry but I don't know anything about the combined pill and its effects on VA. Someone here will know.

Thanks for the replies x

Been better today again. Thank goodness x

[Chihuahuachick]

It's been three weeks since I started with ovestin. So have started to administer the cream every other night now x

Thursday at work was better. No burn from the friction of walking x

So lets hope that this is the beginning of the end of the burn.

Still moisturising, will keep that up.

I'm grateful for the advice given to me to keep using the ovestin every night for a third week. I'm sure it's really helped.

[Chihuahuachick]

Ovestin every other night now.

Still moisturising about 4 times a day.

No burning at work in the day. Not tried sex yet but it would have to be with the lube. Last time I had sex I ended up.bleeding so I'm a bit weary to try it at the moment.

We did try foreplay and I burned afterwards, but it went away after an hour and it was ok from then on.

Just hope that I am ok with sex.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Still using ovestin. Probably down to once every couple of nights now.

Still use a bit of canesten HC.

So in general day-to-day basis, it's kind of gone all together.

Now been prescribed ridgevidon pill to try and help with the HRT replacement. Taken 3 tablets so far.

Noticed that my indegestion and sick feeling I get with it is back. This was back just before I started the pill so doubt its the pill.

Gone back on my gaviscon tablets and they are helping.

Just so down about the indegestion returning. But trying to remain positive and hopefully when I've been back on the gaviscon for a couple of weeks it will be ok.

Also my histamine levels are up as my eyes are itching a lot.

Hopefully this rigevidon will help.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated and a I feel like I need a bit of input from my friends at the forum xxxx
