Vaginal Estrogen - Everything you need to know. 

I think you very much. I am a healthy 70 year old with recurring UTIs and after watching your programs, I bugged my primary care so she prescribed it. I will start in a few days when I get it. Thank you so much for caring.

This lady explains clearly and to the point. She leaves nothing out.

God bless you for generously putting this information out there for sufferers and doctors.

This is absolutely the best video on this subject.

Excellent messaging! I’ve been using this with great results. Thank you for confirming the benefits❤️

This is fabulous. I cannot begin to tell you how much I needed this info. BTW, you have the most beautiful hands I’ve ever seen. Thx again.

I appreciate simple videos like this. Thank you

That was INCREDIBLY helpful

Thank you so much I am 55 years old, and I am just going to start on my first Estradiol Cream. I was worried but you made it a lot better for me to understand so thank you so much Ama Martha

Your the first doc who said what I suspected, the estrogen suppository , was causing breast pain, but I was told " no, it's not systemic". I reduced the amount I was using but still get a little. I appreciate the info and confirmation.

Yes, thank you so much, needed this info so explanatory, so much more than my doctor again thank you.

Thank you, you explained it beautifully.

You are the best! I just found you and every time I have a thought about my condition as I was just prescribed estradiol, it is always so informative to listen to your perspective and what you have to say as you make so much sense with all of this… thank you !!!

Thank you so much. I have been through so much trouble of UTI for 5 years and more, my doctor never mention or suspect of this matter. I'm so grateful for your details of apply this cream. I can have a better quality of life and piece of mind. .

Very good information. Thank you.

Thank you so much for this video!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

This was very helpful with helping me understanding how to use Estradiol.

Very helpful information I find a woman understands it so much better and you really helped me alot thank you very much

Awesome and to the point. God Bless.

Great advice - although this video was made 4years ago... the information shared by the Doctor is very beneficial... thank you

I had a full hysterectomy at 41. It’s been a year now and I tried bio identical hormones but they didn’t work for me. I stopped using them. Now I get tons of UTI’s. I’m going to try this cream. This video was very informative.

Thank you so much for your content. 61 years old post menopausal for 11 years just starting out on Estrace cream. What would your lowest dose recommendation be as I am usually very sensitive to most medication’s? Thank you.

Thank you for clearly defining this. How it works and what it's for.

Thanks I needed to hear this

Very helpful indeed. Thank you very much.

You make sense of estrogen therapy! I will be starting estrogen today and will be applying as you suggested. Thanks

I appreciate your information as I am just beginning using both the cream & the pill

Thank you, very helpful!

Thank you. You told me more than my doctor did. 😊😊😊

So helpful, thank you

Hello and thank you for this content. For a woman with a uterus, would Ostaderm-V be appropriate?

Shared!!! Thank you!

You help me understand so much with your videos and prolaps.i have a bladder prolapse and I'm on insert estrogen. The caution I have is it going to help my prolapse

Super helpful! I have been getting recurrent UTI's for a few years and didn't know why or have a solution until my GYN prescribed topical estrogen cream a few weeks ago. SO relieved! I hate taking antibiotics and was doing it several times a year. I feel different "down there" and haven't had a UTI since! Woohoo!

Thank you, just got notified that I had to use the ointment.

Thank you so much doctor much appreciated. God bless...

Thank you. That was really helpful

Thank you very much doc.u really helped me a lot!all ur videos very much explained😊God bless and spread more love🥰

Excellent information 👍

Just went to my doctor who prescribed estrogen cream. I’m applying it exactly like you said. Only been a couple of weeks but helping already. I’m post menopausal.

👍. My family loves your channel. + Advice. Gracias.

Thank you for the information!! I have been diagnosed with a UTI since the middle of May and this thing will not seem to go away and we came across a recurring UTI video of yours that was very helpful. I have yet to be sent to a Urologist but do use estrogen cream twice a week I think I might need to use it more?? Thank you for the info!!

Very good information. Canada 🇨🇦 .

explained well, thanks

thank you. so the creams are topical, not internal? How does that work? by applying topical does it absorb to the insides? just new to this ..

Thank you for the information

Would love it if you were my doctor! To the point and sensible. I learned from your video that the dosage prescribed was too high for me. I gave up as I was getting cramps and sore breasts but I will see if I can try again and use less as you suggested. Thank you!

Could you offer some examples of which cream to buy please and what strength? Many thanks 🙏

Thank you so much for this video. I was using the applicator to put it inside as my doctor said. I will now do that and ad some to the rest with my finger.

This is by far thee most informative video I have watched regarding vaginal estrogen. I developed mild interstitial cystitis & vulvadynia as a direct result of (early) menopause. I'm certain that the estrogen cream would be of great benefit to me.

No one explains this as well as you Dr. Thankyou Throw the applicator away is my fave thing I heard you say. My Dr said to only use the cream a very short time ! WRONG

Due to prolapse front wall thinning of the skin, and needed to pee 18 times a day. I'm on Astragyn small dose of 0.5G, I Insert it with the applicator. The first week was every day, now twice a week in the evenings. But the next day I'm in pain, burning, and feeling heavy under, I Have to take up to 3 Tylenol to feel better. Should I stop it? Or apply with my fingers as you say in your video?

Great video

Great explanation 👌

Thank you for sharing 💟

Im so glad you have this videos. I went to my Dr about i have a big bulsh under my uthera but.he just said its probably a prolapse but did not examined me

Thank you for this information! I am in surgical menopause for 2 years now. I take estrogen orally but I’m still having the symptoms you are describing such as vaginal and urethra irritation. Can I or should I also use estrogen cream?

Thw information you have provided in recurrent UTI's has been priceless. There is not alot of informitive intimation on this topic. I was very sad to learn "rest of life use" but if it helps me on the return of a UTI, better choise. Your thoughts on "The mona Lisa touch" procedure to "cure" in stead of meds/cream?

Thanks for the video I'm a post menopausal woman who had had total hysterectomy am now on estridial pill an imvexxy vaginal pill I've suffer from vaginal dryness an low libido is this a great combo for hormones replace ?

Thank you much.... Doctor never explained how to apply. So don't have to push it up past vulva very far??

Thanks so much!

Oooop this might explain my uti's. Painful intercourse, ect. Im on Projest E which is helping my hot flashes, now I guess a cream would help with the other local issues, but which cream?

Hello what cream do you preferred to use and safe?

thank you so much

Hi I had an endometrectomy a few years ago I still have my uterus. I m starting Vagifem but My gynecologist said I don’t need to take Prometrium with it but the pharmacist said I should. What to do?

Thank you so much

You are great ❤

Thank you 💞💞💞

Thank you.

Hi, thank you its super helpful, i just have a question.. is it safe for a 23 y/old with pcos ?

Will the stuff I can get on Amazon work? Or does it have to be prescription?

Should I use estrogen cream 6 weeks after an anterior repair. I have started to have vaginal pain recently (5 weeks post op) I was put on vaginal estrogen cream therapy three months before surgery.At two weeks I was healing well and was told no need to use estrogen cream i the future. Wouold it help with the sudden on et of vaginal pain?

my doctor gave me this a few weeks ago but i am scared to use it. i have vaginal mesh erosion the mesh has gone into my vagina. is it safe to use while i have this problem? even water makes it sting when i go in the bath so i take more showers these days. thankyou shaz

Hi! Thanks!! Can it cause burning?

So are you saying to apply none of estrogen cream to inside the vaginal wall? Only on the vulva and exterior urethra? Thanks

Can it be used if I’m 50? I’ve only gone 4 months without a period. Been having hot flashes for about 6 yrs. or do I have to wait 12 full months? I know it not for hot flashes.

Thank you

So helpful ❤️🙏

Please come to Nashville we need a great doctor here I have so many friends that need a female doctor that have those symptoms plus I do thank you

Can this help teenagers like myself with this issue, I’ve tried everything, and I’ve been getting dryer down there too

I was prescribed Estrodol and out of pocket it costs me $200! The pharmacist found a coupon that brought it down to $91..I almost cried when you said this will have to be taken for the rest of my life. I'm only 40, I already feel broken and now broke

Question, using 10mcg pill suppository, twice weekly could I also use cream?

My girlfriend just got a Rx for Yuvafem 10mcg vaginal pills, but after reading the side effects is leary of trying them. How bad are they? She's 60 and I'm 70, thanks.

Great video. I was prescribed Estradiol and I thought I had to insert that thing up there, and after hearing your video, I put a dot in the outer part and urethra as you said. I am 53 perimenopause and sex hurts so bad. I hope this helps. When the penis is about to go in, it hurts and I tense. The doctor said this should help, but she didn't tell me I would have to take it the rest of my life. I also have what I think is a lot of discharge, could it be thrush? It come out in the form of what looks to me like, semi melted butter. Your video was quick, but I learned so much and so I deeply appreciate it, thank you and God bless. Thank you, I now know that I have to use this. Question, if I have thrush or candida? is that the same thing. Do I also have to use a separate yeast cream? or insert a thing up there to get rid of the high amount of thrush? And do I use it along with the Estradiol? I put the Estradiol on the outer part and the yeast cream on the inside with an applicator?

Hi. Thank you for the info. I have horrific vaginal atrophy. Thinning of the vaginal walls. Very painful intercourse. I cannot for the life of me find a doctor in my area (San Diego) that knows anything about this condition or how to treat it. I am gun shy to try anything like a estrogen tabs or rings up in the vagina because years ago I tried (Fem-tab?) them and my entire vagina become like a red erupting volcano. Raw and so painful. Perhaps a allergic reaction??? I Have been using compounded estradiol and progesterone for years with great success, but since 2020 the product quality is either not as good or they just stopped working for me. I’d love to simplify things and just try a bio-identical cream, but how do I get it and is it something that if I just put it on the outside of the vagina (inner labia) will it still help the thinning of the walls of the vagina? Do you ever see anyone remotely? I have been to three doctors now and I am beside myself with the lack of quality care in this new town we move to 1.5 years ago. 59 years old. Menopausal since 52. Married 26 years. Still active but too painful to go on. Help!

Thank for this video. Can you please tell me whether vaginal estrogen cream increases blood pressure. Thank you 😊

Oh, is Estrogen a hormone replacement? My mother and sister got uterine and ovarian cancers. One doctor 25 years ago told me I should not take hormone replacements because I could get cancer?

So unfortunate that primary ovarian failure is always left out of the conversation. There are young women with these symptoms who use these treatments as well. It would be nice for POF to have more awareness among physicians and the general population so diagnosis and treatments isnt so delayed.

Thanks 😊

My girlfriend has been using vaginal estrogen cream for the past few weeks and has been noticing it coming out while using the bathroom. She’s clearly shy about so I’m left to spearhead the operation and ask weather or not this instance diminishes the effects? We appreciate any input, advice, or information on this topic from the ladies here.

How long do i have to use it to be effective im in primenopause and i have been using this for two weeks but im still uncomfortable

Just started vaginal estrogen this last week I am to use 2mg Monday and then again Thursday cause I get bad itching vaginal and painful sex. I am 47. Used three doses so far first dose caused terrible cramping but that has gone. However my breasts and chest feel terrible! They hurt bad and so sore. I am told to try it longer to see if my symptoms improve. I also feel very tired and some headache. The chest and breast pain is terrible. Is this normal and will it likely go? Not sure I can’t stand it much longer! Help oh and May be too high a dose? Thoughts!

I have I.C and topical estriol on my urethra does help for a couple of hours.

Super helpful! Many years I suffered from UTI’s pretty much every 3-4 yrs but these past 2-3 years I have been getting them more often like every 4 months! So the gyno suggested the pill form estrogen and I got another UTI after 3 mths …I was so disappointed but this video was helpful in understanding that it is probably due to the urethra so I definitely will use the gel form because my UTI’s are due to painful sex and vaginal atrophy… thanks will confirm results once I switch to the gel estrogen!

What is your most recommended cream ?

Do i need to have prescription from the Doktor to buy that med.?

Many thanks, Dr. Casperson from Brussels, Belgium; I requested and got a prescription for very low dose Estrogen...after checking gynaecologist, Urologist, Dermatologist .... Will try to find details. Best regards and much gratitude. Third day using Estraidol...fingers crossed.....

I've been using the Premarin for several years and my doctor barely explain to me as detail as you do .....Thank you

I’m 27 and my doctor wants to start me on topical eostrogen because I have chronic perineal, vulva and clitoral fissures for at least 10 years. I also have chronic cystitis since I had a baby last year and had a urethral tear. I also have zero libido for 3 years. Is this safe at my age and what about the side effects???

Is the ring as effective as the cream?
