Hi ladies...
I've always suffered with mouth ulcers  linked to hormones but lately they have become much worse... does anyone have any experience with this and how to relieve them??

[Mitsit]

Morning, my dentist recommended corsodyl mouthwash,you get a cotton bud and dab ulcer with the mouthwash . It’s always worked for me ,ulcer goes very quickly 😊

'bonjela' used regularly

Do see a dentist for a thorough check round your mouth we shouldn't blame hormones on every little ache/pain.

Thankyou 
I have been to Dentist quite recently and all good...
When I was on the depo injection I had an awful time with mouth ulcers and ache and had to stop it....
I have just reduced eastrogen from 3 to 2.5 pumps..maybe thats the reason...

Depomedrone is a pain relieving steroid ..........

Any ulcers that don't clear within 2 weeks should be examined.  R U low on zinc for example?

I have no idea...I'm quite bad at tracking my diet on a day to day basis and what vits are in what...maybe I should pay closer attention.

Sometimes using a toothpaste that doesn’t contain sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS) can help.

Here’s some useful information about this:

Morning.  Good idea Jenna 

Mariab - Don't get hooked into which foods have X, Y, Z ......... regardless of how healthy foods that we have in our diet 1 can still be low on some minerals, a blood test should show which.
