Virginal Atrophy

Does anyone suffer with the above?
I originally went to the doctors as I thought I had a prolapse, after being examined by the nurse, she said it was atrophy.
I have pessarys for this, I'm on day 8. My question is do you feel like you are swollen with it? Like there is some sort of something not quite right down there!

Vaginal atrophy is really common in peri and menopausal women. The pessaries will work but it'll be a few weeks until you feel any benefit. As you've been examined I wouldn't worry too much but obviously go back if no improvement.

Virginal sounds an interesting condition :)
