Can I use Ovestin cream externally?

[FroggyWentACourtin]

I've had some itching for a little while now - I'm as sure as I can be that it's hormone related and I already use Gina twice a week

I read somewhere that ovestin cream can be used externally to potentially soothe discomfort - would this be the case?

Of course id like to discuss this with my doctor but well .. zero chance of this happening!

Any advice appreciated

Yes you can. Many women do this.

My GP suggested using 1% hydrocortisone there for a few days to stop itching too.

@DramaAlpaca thank you very much. I'll give it a go!
