Vaginal moisturizer for life????

Hello all

For anyone who had and then treated vaginal atrophy with topical estrogen - did you find in the end you could stop using vaginal moisturisers like YES, Sulk or Replens completely? As in after treatment kicked in, did you provide enough of own lubrication to be comfortable? I'm thinking in day to day life more than sex.

I'm just wondering whether I'll be using these products for life which I find rather depressing. I realise the topical estrogen is for ever though

Interested to hear your thoughts.

Personally, I'm more comfortable day to day using Yes as well as oestrogen pessaries twice a week. I just think of it as using facial moisturiser or body lotion or lip balm - one of those things.

I also have to use daily eye drops post-illness, and that's more of a drag for me...
