Just wondering if anybody on this forum is using replens.I have started to use it but it seems you cannot use the same one after 30 days it has to be discarded.  It seems I will need to use 1 tube every month with some left over as I intend to use it only twice a week. It has an expiry date of 30 days after opening I wonder whether it will do any harm if I use it after 30 days.as it seems a waste to throw away. Thanks

    A friend of mine used it after she got breast cancer. Her Dr. would not let her use any estrogen at all. She said it was OK but then wrinkled up her nose!  I tried it and it stung like crazy--threw the rest out. I am very sensitive to many things like that though. I thought it seemed rather messy. Would be good to hear from others though.
