If you can handle using the Estrace and it doesn't cause you any problems, it truly will rebuild the vulvar skin (if that is needed for you). I cannot believe at times how much it's done for my v.skin. It gave back a lot of elasticity and I don't 'burn' like I used, too. Overall, the skin just feels better! I hope it will help you, too.... Just keep in mind to use a tiny amount, all we need is a little pea sized dab that is massaged in for about a minute or so....

Guest guest Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 - if you still have the box the cream came in check it for the patient insert. On that sheet check for side effects and see if itching is on of them.

Guest guest Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 Of course I think I threw the box away, but thanks for the info. I can ask the pharmacist. - if you still have the box the cream came in check it for the patient insert. On that sheet check for side effects and see if itching is on of them.

Guest guest Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 I was thinking about that Chelle, and I can't think of anything new I'm using, but when I started the estrace I'll admit I did use more than a pea-size, not a ton more, but I do think it caused the itching. I'm using the pea-size now and the itching is minimal and tolerable. I have not burned and been on fire for 4 days......knock on wood.....Praise the Lord is all I can say! I hope estrace is the answer. Now I need to start dealing more with hurting during sex. I've had endo before, I've heard it never really goes away, is this true? There's supposed to be a really good book out there about it, I can't think of the name of it. Then I have IC which can also cause pain, so I don't know. Doctor's really hate when you walk in with these problems, it could be so many things. rachel metzdorf <homekeepermamaof3 (AT) gmail (DOT) com> wrote: Hi Chelle, the doctor said Estrace shouldn't cause it, I haven't had it as bad the last few days, but I really think it's the Estrace...lol.....I'm probably just crazy...... , by chance have you been on any other 'new' meds that might be making you itch?
