Replens, reaction

Hi all,

has anyone else used Replens vaginal moisturiser before and had what feels and looks like a reaction?

I am experiencing the “shedding” which everyone talks about- which looks like tissue paper, but tinged with brown or red.

But I am also bleeding occasionally and also have aching in my pelvic region which is a constant cramping/ache, and doesn’t seem to be easing off.

I last used the cream on Saturday, so I am really hoping this stops soon - but would really appreciate hearing if this has happened to anyone else. Thank you!

Oh yeah, I had that, really weird ,isn't it? I had spotting / shedding for a couple of days, was quite a shock.

Yes. Has this. Looked like extreme thrush. I stopped using it and just used lubrication before sex.

A total shock, and nothing listed on the side effects - which made me panic more! Only from going on drugs.com did I see more people suffering with the same.

It seems to be clearing up now, thankfully! But the doctors didn’t have a clue.
