The safest and most effective treatment for vaginal dryness during and after menopause is vaginal estrogen.

Which type of vaginal estrogen worked best for you? Tell me and others below!
What about Estring?
Just started generic Estrace 2 weeks ago. If it doesn’t travel systemically, why can there be breast pain?
Good question!
@@joannepigliavento7930yes- I don’t get it. Hope it goes away.
I just ordered hydration ovals with estriol from Bezwecken brand, I hope gonna help relieve my symptoms.
Please keep sharing your great information!! Thank you for your channel!!
I have severe GSM and use all 3 in combo and it helps a lot. Also added a good probiotic and D Mannose. So much better
It is a great place for all things related to menopause. Thank you!
Thank you for the great videos! 😀
hello Dr. Hirsch,
I've recently found your channel and have been learning a lot. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Question - I heard from another gyn that taking progestetin in pill form (traveling throughout one's body) can offset the benefit of estrogen for the three diseases (heart, bones, Alzheimers). Thus, and IUD is recommended. Could you shed some light on this and research based facts? thank you.
i like the cream. just started using it.
Would you please do another video on Ovestin (Estriol cream) for the “ring of fire”
Do you have any thoughts on the Mona Lisa Touch or Micro needling in conjunction with estrogen suppositories?
Can just using estradiol cream 2x week lower cholesterol and help with overall pain? I have hair loss too. Ive had SO many tests trying to definitely know whats causing my muscle joint pain AND swelling in my left ankle. Nothing found. It would be great to think it might be hormones. My thyroid test came back normal as well.
What can i get name estrogen & where 2 purchase withoit prescription,till i see dr? Plz reply 🙏
Vitamin A as Aquasol helps me.
Which is better? Vagifem or Premarin?
How common is it for estrogen cream to cause burning? Should people persist using it? When does it stop? After 3 months?
Ive read that many women stop the cream due to this issue.
Yes Dr. can you please answer this concern when starting the vaginal estrogen cream. Thank you
I cant use estradiol for GSM, i am allergic to the parabens, what would you suggest i use since i cant use the creams, i mean i cant breathe, the itching is severe the not being able to breathe is severe, hives are terrible, i break out, what do you suggest? I have been to my GP, AND 2 different urogynecologist
Have you heard of doctor formulated Julva? It’s vaginal DHEA. That may help 😀
I want to restart HRT as I took it from age 51 to 55. Menopausal symptoms and GSM have resurfaced. I just turned 61, and gyn said no. I do not have any contraindications. Hypothetical, what would you do for this patient? I am using Premarin, yet I would like to restart a patch.
Get a new gynecologist
So, it may take 3 months to see improvement on Estrace?
Can you please confirm No Progesterone required? I’m hearing mixed messages. Thanks very much Dr. Hirsch!
NO progesterone needed with local vaginal estrogen
@@heatherhirschMD Thank you!
This is definitely me! I’m 62 and have UTIs every 3 months. So many antibiotics. The estradiol cream caused extreme itching/burning and yeast infection. I don’t want oral or systemic estrogen due to fear of cancer. Help!!
I read that the burning is common when you first use the cream. It can last several weeks. I'm wondering if the Dr would comment on that and any solutions.
I had extreme itching above my knees. Looked like hives. It went away after about a week or two.
I use Estrace vaginal cream. Good RX always has a coupon for this.
Can you get this over the counter?
I use it and it is very good. But! I went for more at the pharmacy they wanted to charge me $93 for a tube! I Will not pay that so will have to see. Last time it was maybe $15 I can’t remember. I need to find away. it helps with so much. I even have had a blood clot and still use it. Crazy.
Did you try Good RX for a coupon?
$ 20 @ cost plus
@@mdaze9753 I did
@@leasanders3902 Thanks
Good Rx !!!
Have been on vagifem for several years for GSM but am presently being treated for breast cancer. My oncologist says I should come off it. I know there was a recent Danish study that indicated increased recurrence in women on aromatase inhibitors and localized estrogen. Can you please share your thoughts on vaginal estrogen in women on aromatase inhibitors? Thank you!!!
Hi, can I use non latex condoms safely with Vagifem? X
Intrarosa
What about vaginal ESTRIOL?
