How to Use
Before and after applying the cream, wash your hands thoroughly. Pay close attention to the specific dosage, dosing schedule, and instructions listed on the medication.
The best time to apply the cream is right before bed. Lying down helps keep the medication in contact with the vaginal walls longer, enhancing absorption. If you plan to have intercourse, wait until after sexual activity to apply the cream.
Fill the applicator with the prescribed amount of cream according to the package instructions. Lie on your back with knees bent and feet flat. Hold the applicator at the base, carefully insert the tip into your vagina, and slowly push the plunger to dispense the cream.
Some of the cream may naturally exit the vaginal canal the next morning when you're upright and moving around. To manage this, consider wearing a panty liner or underwear you don’t mind changing.
After each use, rinse the applicator thoroughly with mild soap and water to remove any remaining vaginal secretions. A cotton swab (Q-tip) can help ensure it is fully cleaned.
FAQs
Q: How is the vaginal cream different from body cream?
A: Vaginal estrogen cream is applied directly into the vaginal canal to specifically target urogenital symptoms. The body creams offer systemic HRT to treat other symptoms like hot flashes, mood swings, and more. System HRT can also address vaginal symptoms.
Q: Can it increase libido?
A: Vaginal HRT cream is primarily used to treat localized symptoms of menopause affecting the vaginal area, such as dryness, itching, and pain during intercourse. By improving vaginal health and comfort, it may indirectly enhance libido or sexual desire by making sexual activity more comfortable and enjoyable.
Q: How long should I wait to have sex after using vaginal estrogen cream?
A: After applying vaginal estrogen cream, it’s generally recommended to wait at least 1 to 2 hours before having sex to allow the cream to be fully absorbed. This helps ensure the medication is effective and reduces the likelihood of any transfer to your partner.
Q: Will it affect my partner?
A: There is a possibility that small amounts of the cream may come into contact with your partner during sexual activity. This contact is unlikely to cause significant hormonal effects in your partner, especially if the cream is used according to your provider's instructions and you allow sufficient time for it to absorb before engaging in sexual activity.
Q: Can you send me more applicators?
A: Unfortunately, Winona cannot provide additional applicators. You can purchase them online from Amazon if you need more.
