"I used a 10 mcg on Sunday and Thursday for a total of 2 pills. It did wake up my lady parts but also caused a constant soreness and pressure in the pelvic area, and I am very bloated. Not worth it."

"Vagifem still works but due to lower dose I have to use more often. My doctor says this is very common with reduced dosage. I very glad that she will prescribe sufficient pessaries for comfort."

"At first the burning was intense ( from using the pills) it later decreased. After day 7 , I had the worst case of bacterial vaginosis. I have stopped using the 10 mcg inserts."
