Hi back in january I was fine, tmi but when my bf got me going I was soaking then suddenly my vulva went red and hot. Gp's said it was most likely a reaction to something.

Since then I have been dry in the vagina, get burning and no discharge at all used to get loads.

Now at the very beginning when it was hot i was splitting during sex but after a few weeks of steroid that stopped.

The problem is my skins not got better, its still red and dry, ive no moisturise in the vagina or vulva.

A new gp diagnosed me with atrophy last week and started me on estrogen but I can't understand why it all happened overnight.

Has anyone heard of a reaction starting off atrophy or anything? I'm at my whits end I am only 39 and even aroused not a thing. Its like the glands are blocked. Nowt comes out not just a little. Nada. Ive had to cut him off and im in bits.
