Hi
GP is your first stop to check everything is in order.
I wouldn't change hrt without seeing GP.
I would suspect sinister discharge to be red or dark brown but I am no expert.
I don't know if you take your utro vaginally, that route irritates a lot of women's bladders.
It irritated mine a lot but thankfully the irritation has subsided now a lot, I was having small urgent wees ridiculous amounts of times during the day and up at night, seems to have settled a bit now, but still having bladder scan, cancelled because of coronavirus to be arranged at a later date.

hi
i've also noticed last few days my hands have gone really dry rest of body is fine but wondering again if progesterone causing this thing out hands and drying out tissue in vagina ? as estrogen is the hormone that keeps us moist down there and progesterone the opposite so one would think less discharge but wondering if it's making VA worse ? can't really tell other then watery stuff coming out no odour no itching no burning as of yet .
i take progesterone orally, i have no womb , i don't really need it but using it to stabilize moods aniexty and had worked and feel fine just this discharge and dry hands and dry mouth which is making me wonder if i need a touch more estrogen to counteract it x

You probably have dry hands if you're washing your hands more often due to the coronavirus. Mine are terribly dry at the moment & I've been using Nivea hand repair hand cream - I doubt very much it has anything to do with progesterone.

I think your dry hands is probablythe increased hand washing, mine are really dry and my son is suffering too as he has to use alot of handgel in the job he does.

VA can cause a watery discharge.

hi ladies
i?m not washing my hands any more then normal as always washing them any way
have been using ovestin cream for over a year for VA as well as systemic estrogen
the dry hands dry mouth and dryer vagina have all started since taking progesterone as on estrogen alone my skin was more oily and vagina was over wet and mouth wasn't dry so i think i need another pump of estrogen or to reduce progesterone alternate days ! just don't know which to do x
