Infection will not be caused by Epsom Salts  and would have shown differently to 'dryness'.  ES could be the cause of the initial problem.

Glad you got on OK!  Persevere with the Vagifem .......

Last night and this morning I have been back with some pain. Though the procedure in itself was painless I guess I am still not ready. So for the moment it will be a cold day in hell before I allow a speculum up there. Not anytime soon anyway. In fact even if Brad Pitt himself were to turn up.....

You can keep Brad Pitt - I'm a Pirate man myself

CLKD you've got me worried now, I can't find that phrase in this topic / post anywhere!
Looks like my brain's going - OH keeps telling me that is the case

Which bit don't you get    .... I've put it into quotes for you ........ scan down  and you will see it

I've looked and still don't see it.
Also, put "caused some irritation/inflammation" into the search box at the top, the only thing that comes up is your entry

All this started 6 months ago a couple of days after I had a good wallow in an Epsom Salt bath - so I'm wondering if that caused some irritation/inflammation or even if I got some infection up there??

I found it    Took me a while though

Firstly 
2ndly - change your Gynae ....... she/he obviously has no IDEA what atrophy is about.  Neither did I until recently  )there's a thread about it somewhere  (  ........ you need several weeks of treatment before you will feel able to relax enough.  I wouldn't have a GA unless it is absolutely necessary, in fact, have never heard of that offered before in the UK.  I would be inclined to wait for a couple of months, then go back for a discussion before they even attempt a smear test.  Vagifem, lots more lubricant and patience!

Yep your right as ever 6/8 weeks my gp said xxxxxx
