Guest guest Posted September 14, 2007 Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 Millie, Vaseline cream has a lot of chemical fillers and artificial things in it - I wouldn't let that stuff near my body, much less my vulva. I know a doc told you to use it though, and if it helps you, it's great, but if you are having issues, it could at least be partly due to that. I use only Burt's Bees or other natural body products, and not much at all on my vulva other than oil. Melinda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2007 Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 what I am using is not the vaseline cream that I think you are thinking I am using, it is a hand lotion actually that is made by Vaseline. It is very thick and a good buffer.

Guest guest Posted September 14, 2007 Report Share Posted September 14, 2007 You know, I don't know. Well, if we don't have intercourse regularly, I get very score and it is a little painful, but nothing that bothers me. I use the cream because the surgeon told me to use alot of lubrication and I am scared I will break open. A fear I have always had.

Guest guest Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 Stacey thank you so much for the offer, after listening to the girls talk and thinking of my problem, I think well that it is two things, I am afraid, which is realistic I think to an extent and not in another. My skin has thinned because I am 58 and had my ovaries out, so some of my fear is probably realistic to an point, and I think that what I have been doing works and I think I should just continue with what I am doing, but I thank you for your input. It is kinda like if it isn't broke don't fix it. Thanks again, Millie Re: Milly/Life after VVS Surgery there are many lubes out there that are good quality and the siliconetype of lubes feel like silk on the skin. they do not need constantreapplication like water based lubes. there are lots of brands outthere like PJUR, ID Millenium, System Jo and more. you can do a googlesearch and see if any of those may work for you. Please don't think I am making a sales pitch ( i really want to helppeople feel better) but I am in the adult home party business and selllubes and I almost always use the silicone because it is sooo smoothand after my surgery, I am a little more dry and still a littlenervous about hurting myself (a mental thing, i am sure you can relate).I would be happy to send you a free sample to try and see if thesilicone lube would be helpful to you. then you could tell if it isworth buying because they are a little pricer than water based butwell worth it. you can get them mostly anywhere, online, adult shops,possibly drug stores or i would be happy to get you one at my cost(40% off) just for being a member on this site if it saves you money.Just go where it is cheapest if you think it will help you Goodluck! > >> > You know, I don't know.
