What are some of the natural products you are using to treat the burning, frequent urination and terrible pain during intercourse.  I was working with a dr. who wanted me to bring my low vit D up before I used any creams and it got high enough so she started me on Estrace cream and I have all the symptoms I had before after starting the cream, burning, constant urination. I stopped the Estrace over a week ago and my symptoms have not subsided.  This is terrible. I have not had intercourse in 6 months trying to fix this problem.  I've been to so many doctors too.  This dr. has now prescribed a bioidentical estradiol capsule. This is just a terrible way to exist every day,  Is there anything else you all can recommend that helped you get rid of this severe problem and lead a  normal life?  Thanks.

    I use premarin cream 2 x week. No soap in area, only water. No fabric softener. Took time but I'm so much better. Showers only.

    Jazzy girl how long have you had this and has it been diagnosed as atrophic vaginitis? I ask because all those symptoms are similar to mine.

    Try using d mannoose from Amazon for the burning I was given estriol cream for months and it did nothing except make me uncomfy and swollen .

      I've had the painful intercouse for a long time but the buning and frequent urination since about last September.  It's terrible.  I feel like I have to go to the bathroom all the time. It got better and now, right after I started the Estrace cream for 5 days all this started up again.  I'm in a nightmare as this is not my only issue I have.

      Hi jazzy do try d mannoose they are in powder and tablet form from Amazon. It stops the burning. I also use dandelion and cornsilk tincture which costs the bladder so it stops making you want to wee all the time

    I heard about inserting Natural Vit E gel capsules each night..and am trying that now before resorting to the Etrace my doc prescribed. It's very simple and you dont puncture them but they open up at night and will discreet the Vit E. I'm holding out on Etrace and trying this first.

    It seems like at least its natural and without possible issues. 

    I hear about the Mona Lisa...does anyone know how or why this works so well?

    What is it?

    A laser surgery?

    Is it like a peel from laser but on the inside? ouch.

      Mona Lisa is a laser done in three treatments revitalizes the tissue inside and out. Done in a doctors office. Pretty painless.

    Hi. I went on Vagifem for a few months which plumpede everything up. Now I just use Balance activ menopause pessaries every few day which are natural and lubricate internally. I also use Yes oil based lubricant both inside and out. I also bought a dilator to stretch the vagina which took a few months but worked and also used a stretching method I found on the internet. If you google how to stretch your vagina you can get some advice from a medical site. I would suggest the balnce activ as a natural remedy as it works for me.

      Estrace is supposed to start working within 2 weeks, but it took me 6 months! My Dr told me to try 3x a week, and I think that finally made the difference (about 1 1/2 gr). Also put a little of the Estrace on the urethra and outside vulva. Not unusual for it to burn in the beginning because the tissue is so irritated. I am also in the middle of the Mona Lisa treatment and it is a miracle!!!
