Guest guest Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Hi Mindy, Thanks for your response and kind words. I'm really not aware of external discomfort. If I concentrate there might be a very slight bit of discomfort but to tell you the truth, it's minor compared to pain I feel elsewhere, so it's not enough to be noticable. Really what I'm concerned about is the terrible pain with penetration. It's not on the outside - but just once he gets inside and all the way in. It's excrutiating and it doesn't feel like skin irritation but sharp pain. Since I'm dealing with a sluggish immune system I decided against the estrogen cream. My doc confirmed that it can contribute towards cancer. I just can't take the chance. I don't think this is related to estrogen deficiency though. Actually I've had this pain as long as I can remember, but it's gotten much worse over time. In fact, I believe I was always estrogen dominant, which progesterone cream has helped with. Has anyone there had this exact type of pain and gotten rid of it? Has physical therapy helped others? I'm sure it also has something to do with the infections I'm fighting. I did used to have chronic candida, and I wonder if that did something. Thanks!!! > > > > Hi all, > > Are there any really effective treatments?
