So I'm on Femoston 2/10, and doing much better on it than I was off! But vaginal symptoms are persisting so I asked my dr for vaginal oestrogen, which I've read helps when oral doesn't. She was reluctant to give it to me as I'm on tablet hrt and said that should be doing the trick; finally she relented and gave me pessaries, telling me to use 2 a week and not more because of increasing the bc risk. She also said I should only use them temporarily - a few weeks - for the same reason. Isn't her thinking on this now rather outdated though?
