Saw gynae about my problem with constant burning and feeling of UTI and all tests came back clear.  Also saw a urologist with the same issues but with trace of blood in urine he said av can cause this.  So far have been reluctant to try ovestin cream again.  Anybody has any success using the cream? It is so umcomfortable down below.

    Hi Marie, does it burn during urination or right after?

    I have the issue of burning or stinging right after not during....I feel like it's neurological as it's not every time I go. I can go for days without any burning, then it comes back. I can take a shower and wash the area and it will feel like a stinging or burning sensation, but right after I wash, not while I'm washing...lasts only a few seconds then goes away...then the next shower nothing...I've been tested for every thing at gyn, everything negative. I'm going to go to neurologist next. I just thought I would put out there that sometimes it's not gyn related. Good luck and hope u feel better!
