VLP

Hi everyone

I have VLP I use steroid cream. I wonder if anyone can advise on a product they have used, that I could try using during sex to help stop me becoming sore again.

I had a hysterectomy last year and this is when the VLP was diagnosed.

Thank you

    Hi I do not have vlp but do have sjogrens so I am really dry all the time and I use a combination of oils that I make which I use as a lubricant. The recipe comes from an aromatherapy book and I tweeked it a bit! Calendula oil, cannabis oil, hemp seed oil with some beeswax for thickening. All three oils are super healing and the cannabis oil helps with pain.

My gaynaecogist is surprised and all for my continuing with this on proviso if symptoms recurr I go back to dermovate
