I went to get my new prescription to vagifem , doctor switched me to brand name only. But I didn't get it after finding out my insurance would pay very little $96 for vagifem vs $5 for yuvafem. So I tell them forget it just fill the yuvafem refill. They tell me they will have to order it. UGH I only had one dose left. Anyway I send dear Hubby to pick it up the next day and he brings home yet another generic called TEVA ???

TEVA is a bigger applicator than vagifem or yuvafem, NOT GOOD. With all the trouble I am still having with being smaller and dry, I am totally frustrated right now.

    Sorry to hear that, I have no knowledge of these different forms of Vagifem.  You are in the USA I presume, I am in the Uk so maybe things are different for you there than we are here?  I hope you get on with the new one ok.  Elsie.

      Thanks so far it seems fine just a bit unsettling to not know what you are getting every time
