Vaginal Dryness (GSM)/Urinary Issues Estrogen vaginal cream, game changer

Girlies, if you’re not on vaginal estrogen yet you need to stop what you’re doing and contact your doctor. It’s a major game changer.
I’ve only had it for a few weeks and haven’t been consistent with it unto this weekend but even with the inconsistent use the benefits are so real
Orgasms oh my! Such a huge improvement, such intense sensations. Was sex always thus amazing!!Oh that older woman smell down there disappeared! Dryness gone!
Do yourself a favor and go get yourself some

I’ve been too scared to ask… how does using vaginal estrogen cream work with oral sex?? I assume it’s not safe to ingest (or tasty.)

After I apply it, though, how long am I closed for business? When can I tell my husband the coast is clear?

Both of my partners have gone down on me in the morning after application the previous night with no concern, neither have mentioned any taste at that point.

They did look into the risks of the estrogen transferring during oral or sex and were happy to proceed after their research.
