Has it really helped any of you here with the burning and stinging and rawness feeling??? I am so miserable all the time, I can barely walk half the time, and the pain is so great at times. My dr. is having me change to just using it 3x's a week. I had horrible itching, even all over body itching, has this happened to anyone? I see someone said something about pregnancy, is this something you can't do while using this cream? , for years I walked around with CONSTANT vulvar burning, irritation and what I described as feeling RAW! The Estrace slowly (over the course of 6 weeks to 2 months) built the vulvar skin back up...and I don't have CONSTANT vulvar pain now. The hormones won't help everyone, but they do help 'some' of us. It just depends on what is causing the pain. If the pain is nerve related it probably won't help, but if the vulvar skin has gotten thin and dry, there is a chance it will! I think it's at least worth trying. Vulvar itching while using Estrace can be common. As far as all over body itching from using Estrace, I've never heard of that...so you might want to check with a Pharmacist.

Guest guest Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 I have never used these hormones but I did have all over random rashes but it was a result of an anti-biotic (Tetracycline)allergy. They lasted about two weeks. It could be an anaphylactic allergic reaction to something else you are taking. Tell you Doctor about that all over body itching.
