Vagirux and Yes lube

Hi, I keep reading that creams or Vagirux burn until things settle down, but is increased peeing part of getting used to it?
I am on systemic HRT and recently prescribed Vagirux for VA, sometimes after putting in at night I feel burning and need to pee a lot in the night.
I have also had Ovestin and Estriol cream but couldn’t get past the burning sensation and got into a right mess with Estriol leaking out that night and the next day so not sure if anything was absorbed.
I used Yes lube on my outside bits 2 days ago and it helped a bit with the burning.
Is this lube fine to use to moisturise my outside and insde bits if needed?

I can’t comment on your meds, but I successfully adopted some advice on Gransnet where they advocated using coconut oil externally. Very soothing, and just the Aldi basic stuff for use in the kitchen.

Felt I was was sensitive to Progestogen being used vaginally, and this helped me with the external discomfort.

I’ll try that, soothing is definitely what I need, thankyou.
