Hello Everyone-
I just started on vagifem. I'm curious how often people use it. I know in the beginning it is everyday for two weeks and then twice a week. Is twice a week sufficient for most people?
Also I have noticed an increase in discharge with it. Has anyone else had this?
Meryl
I just use it twice a week, even at the beginning, and yes, it does give you a white discharge.

Okay-not to be too graphic but could you describe the discharge?
Meryl
LOL -- okay, it's white, a little runny, and when it dries it makes your underwear crunchy! Went to the gyno yesterday just for a regular checkup, and he says that's normal. Why, what do you have? If it's really thick it could be a yeast infection. If it's really really watery, it can be a bacterial infection. If it's yellow to yellow/brown it will go away with the Vagifem because that's from atrophic vaginitis. Am I any help?

Hi there - I just posted a question about Vagifem in another forum and have just read your post. How are you coming along with Vagifem? I have stopped this treatment as I suffered (and still do) dizziness and breast tenderness. It is awful! I've been off this treatment for 7 days and still suffering. I hope you are not experiencing the same and that this treatment is doing what it's meant to do. Bella.
