NEED ADVISE

I HAD A HYSTERCTOMY IN APRIL OF THIS YEAR, IM 46 AND ATER THE FRIST TIME WE HAS INTERCOUSE ALMOSY 3MONTH LATER I STARTED HAVE BURNING . I WAS TREAT FOR A FEMALE INFECTION, AND THAT DID NOT WORK. I M MARRIED TO WONDERFUL MAN WHO IS UNDERSTANTING, BUT I'M SICK OF THIS. MY DOCTOR LISTENED TO ME AND GAVE SOME CREAM FOR PAIN AND A ANTIDRESSANT WITH PAIN MEDS. I STILL HAVE FLAIR UP'S.

See my post - "what worked for me". Also, as you are 46 and had a hysterectomy it may be due to drop in oestrogen levels which causes the vaginal tissue to because less elastic, thinner, and more fragile and also causes reduction in you own natural lubrication. Oestrogen cream or pessaries is t he usual cure for this - it should return you vaginal tissue to its normal moisture, elasticity and toughness. If you cannot use oestrogen or it doesn't agree with you, there are several vaginal lubricants and moisturisers on the market that help the tissues return to normal, e.g. Yes water based lubricant, Sylk, Woohoo, Balance Activ Menopause, Pegaso IntiNorm, Lubrigyn Cream. Be sure to choose one that has natural ingredients and no chemical nasties. All those I have listed are natural and match vaginal PH, several contain hyaluronic acid which is the same chemical in your body that keeps cells moist. am in the process of going through these to find one that doesn't sting me - I have had vulvodynia for 2 years which has left the skin around my vaginal opening very sensitive to products. Now I have vaginal dryness due to menopause (dropping oestrogen levels), and want a nice natural vaginal moisturiser. All those products I have listed can be bought on Amazon, except Woohoo which is from Boots. Some are available on prescription (Yes, Sylk). My GP gave me hyalofemme which she said many find good, but it stung me (chemicals). You need to find what works for you and doesn't irritate. Try the oestrogen cream / pessary - these give some people sideveffects, which is why I am holding back from trying that unless all else fails.
