It is great to be able to share experiences and treatments that you have tried. You feel you are on your own with this and it really does alter your life. Besides atrophic vaginitis i am healthy so i should be grateful. I am 50 this year but the problem started at least 5 years ago and is gradually getting worse. Sex is a thing of the past!!! How I wish i had started earlier and had more!! You do not appreciate this when you are younger.
Sex is impossible as even attempt at penetration damages the skin at the entrance so any movement is agony. There is no mucus dry as a bone lubricants make no difference to the damage. I have not had 'proper' sex for at least 3 years.
I have tried ovestin cream for 2 years no help at all.
Replens no difference
I have been on some herbal tablets with sage for 2 months no change.
I would be grateful for any ideas.[/b]

I wonder if there is anyone who has started using hormone cream to be proactive rather than for any painful symptoms.

I would love to know if you can take the Vagifem with Sage as I have been having the most chronic night sweats, palpitations and chest pain - very scary every night and I feel as if my head is about to explode. I thought the Vagifem was contributing to this but I know it was going on before I used it. The only other solution I have to all of this is that I get combined reiki, bodytalk and kinesiology which I have missed for a couple of months now and need to get back. My Master therapist says that my menopause is so bad because of extreme grief from a husband who was unfaithful and not having children. I have had an awful lot of internalised anger and have spent years in therapy but hopefully I am coming out the other side of all of that - it was very hard times as I didn't meet my 'soulmate' until I was 40 and then he did the dirty on me. This is very long winded, but I wanted to let people know about emotions and therapy and see if anyone has tried it and if it works for them. I look forward to hearing from you and if your symptoms have alleviated in any way.
