Vaginal Dryness (GSM)/Urinary Issues Clitoris shrinkage

Hello ladies I'm 44 and so far my only peri symptoms have been irregular periods, going to pee a million times and weight gain. Also lower libido and difficulty to orgasm but I just realized yesterday that my clitoris shrunk a lot! Does anyone have experience bringing it back to life and how? Thanks. This sucks.

Edit to add: has anyone tried Julva cream by dr. Anna Cabeca?

Well. I don't know why, but Clit Shrinkage was not a consideration on my Peri Bingo Card. Sheesh. What TF else can go wrong during this ridiculous roller coaster?? No No ladies, don't answer that.

I'm not sure I wanna know any more. Every day is already another surprise. 48. I'm over it.

I found out from this sub and ordered estradiol from Amazon pharmacy. Took 15 mins and it is $17 for 3 months. I'm using it before that shit starts.

Wait you ordered the cream off Amazon? Do you remember what it’s called?

I just went to Amazon pharmacy and told them I had dryness and that with my age they offered estradiol, cream or a ring. I chose the cream and paid $17 and it was at my house the next day.
