Guest guest Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 Hey Chelle, Thanks for the info. I'll just keep using it. I have a hormonal issue of low P, but there still might be low E due to breastfeeding (though it should be close to normal since my period's been back). I took the pill for two 6 mth stints 6-7 yrs ago and that's it. The spot that hurts is the perineum and it didn't hurt until my daughter's birth. I didn't tear, but I wonder if I put strain on it too much and it just hasn't healed up right. I'll keep trying the Estrace. Other than that, my vvs seems to be gone! It's so amazing! I've only had two visits with Rhonda. I've got one more visit that I'm going to do and then just try to do it on my own since it is 99% healed. Take care, >>>>>>Okay, 2 things... 1-Can I use Estrace on my period/should I? and 2-When > should I see results if it is going to help?

Estrace topically may not help everyone of us, but if you have hormonal issues, especially low E. 'or' you know you have skin problems (i.e. tearing, redness, inflammation, etc) - even past birth control pill use - it can make a difference. Are you still doing better? I hope so!

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 The estrace seemed to make me burn a lot more. I was only suppose to use it 2x's a week. So I stopped using it and the laticain. The laticain never even numbed me.. Lee Annocnstuff wrote: Hey Chelle,Thanks for the info. I'll just keep using it.

Lee Ann, sometimes women react to the inert ingredients in the Estrace and have it compounded in a soothing base like Emu Oil, or Aloe Vera, etc. Sorry to hear the Estrace or numbing creams didn't help you...hang in there and don't give up. It's hard, but we have to cling to hope.....Hugs, Chelle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
