Hi. It’s a long one sorry! I’ve been on systemic HRT for four years and vagifem for three. Four months ago I started to experience major bladder and bowel problems plus a swelling perineum scar tissue which has been so uncomfortable and assumed a prolapse. GP can’t find a prolapse and prescribed Ovestin to go with vagifem. I booked in with pelvic physio who diagnosed hypertonic pelvic floor and suggested kegels. These helped for a bit then as I progressed with strength got worse. Physio suggested down training pelvic floor to lessen tension. I started Jude supplements for bladder and increased fibre and magnesium for bowels but just cannot reach an ongoing solution. I have a pelvic scan booked soon as spotting has been a problem too. This week extreme burning and soreness so popped a fluconazole and called GP to say that my symptoms aren’t resolving. She examined me and said I should be responding to treatment and now sending me for bloods to check for ovarian cancer and a stool test for bowel cancer. Meanwhile I’m stinging like hell . Please advise 😩
