    Im using Vagifem twice a week internally. It has helped. Not sure about long range use but for now, I am ok with it. Used Estrace which is same as Premarin (HRT cream). It did not work at all for me.

    I'm taking Vegifam and was told by several pharmacists and doctors that it's safe.

    Hi Lee. I have just picked up your thread on here. Like I said on the other discussion, I would look for a natural alternative such as Balance Active. If none of the natural alternatives work, I would try Vagifem but would stay on it for a short period only. I think you become dependent upon it. And people have side effects when they come off it.
