Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I just started taking estradoil 2m once a day, insteado of using estrogen pellets. I have POF. I have noticed that since I started taking it, I have severe vaginal dryness and burning that I didn t have with the pellets. The pellets we subcutaneous implants and it was 20 mg that lasted approximately +- 4 months and slowly dissolved. didn t have this problem with them.
Cause of vaginal dryness varies with age. In post-menopausal age group, dryness of vagina is usually due to lack of estrogens. Use of estrogen ointment can help to reduce dryness of the vagina.
I would suggest you consult your gynaecologist for clinical assessment and thus treatment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Shailja Puri , Pathologist and Microbiologist
