It makes me a bit itchy - so does the ‘Yes' products.  I use Sylk which seems to be the only thing that works for me.  I use Vagifem 2-3 times a week as well.  DG x

It could be the coating causing irritation ……… do you have treatment for Vaginal Atrophy (sorry, can't remember your other topics, too much going
on )

Might some products may be drying after the initial application ? = itchiness?
