Title: Estriodol cream
Post by: Luicy on October 19, 2017, 07:43:26 PM

Hi I would like some advice please.

I have been using the Estriodol cream for a few weeks and I recently ran out and didn't renew my prescription for a week or two.
Do I now have to go back to starting again with two weeks of every night applications and then twice a week top up?

I presume you mean Estriol cream? It depends on how you feel. You may be OK just to continue twice weekly but perhaps use 3 -4 times a week at first to make sure? The longer you go without it the more likely symptoms will be to return.

Yes it's the cream I use.

I don't really have any symptoms tbh  I have been diagnosed with lichen sclerosis and my gp said I also have VA so suggested the cream would help. 

Ah well I will try a few extra applications and see how I go on.

thanks
