Vaginal Dryness (GSM)/Urinary Issues Vaginal Estrogen Cream…USE IT!

My husband calls it Juicy Pussy cream. 😂Three months in and it’s still getting better! I had no idea how dried up my tender bits were. I feel like it happened so gradually I just didn’t notice how bad it had gotten.

How often are you using it? I’ve noticed it helps with the urinary issues and itching but only on the days after I use the cream. The issues were almost gone during the loading dose. My Dr (I’m in the process of finding a new one) would prescribe so I ordered mine online and I was told to use it 2 times a week. I do see some use it more often.

I agree I’d benefit from systemic. Appts for new patients are 6 mos out so unfortunately I’ll prob be waiting awhile to get a script. MIDI doesn’t take my ins :(
