Who knew your fanny shrivelled up and ran away when you hit mid 50s!?!

[shrumps]

I certainly didn’t and I miss it! The only part of my body to become skinny and Im absolutely pissed off. Why did no one tell me about this?? And now I feel I can’t tell anyone else in case it’s just me.

And a big thank you from me, OP! At our surgery, I got a prescription from the assistant health professional (!!) for the cream. The only worry have is, bearing in mind my mother's ovarian cancer, will the cream provoke it in me? Can any doctors on here advise?

I was cleared to use both pessaries and cream by my surgeon after a hysterectomy for endometrial cancer which was 8/8 positive for oestrogen driven.

I'm categorically not allowed to use systemic HRT. My amazing consultant said it was such a small dose as not to be a problem. You should be fine.

Thank you @UnaPersson . That's so encouraging!
