Any feedback on Estring?

I have been using vitamin E oil and it is helping with dryness on the outer areas but my doctor ok'd me to use estring. Has anyone used this and if so what sort of feedback do you have?

You can do a search of these forums and find some threads from those that have used estring. Estring is a vaginal estrogen ring, which delivers estrogen to the vaginal tissues. Most do not have a symptamatic effect from using this product.

Good luck! I hope the Estring works for you.

I have one, at first I couldn't insert it high enough and could always feel it. But that was due to the atrophy it was going to help with. After 6 weeks, I couldn't feel it anymore and it has been helpful for my symptoms.

No side effects, it's a very low localized dose, used for vaginal dryness, Femring is a higher does used for hrt. I had uterine cancer and my gyn/onc felt it was safe.
