I also have a sit down job 12 hours I find it so uncomfortable sitting for long periods any suggestions of what I could buy to make it more comfortable? Thank you

Ask for a bespoke chair to be made by your workplace.

I have two U cushions that were made by a disability cooperative for home and car for when I feel uncomfortable.

Putnams are a company that do cutout cushions that are portable.

Orria, Kazer1's GP is treating her appropriately at this time, it is not for us to instruct a member or push the use of systemic HRT, we can only give advice about our own experiences.
Its also not true that you won't need topical oestrogen if taking systemic HRT, women can need both treatments.

Right dose of systemic HRT protects against VA.

In my case, it showed up after my dose was decreased. 3x UTI, no response from GP, only antibiotic. Now, after increase by private gino, I can feel how it's going away.

Yes, it's my own experience.
