    I've learnt so much from you I appreciate you taking time out of your day to keep us women informed. I just finished watching a channel named The good life. He's saying women shouldn't be on hrt it causes cancer and when we lose estrogen it's meant to be. I left a comment and said I'll take advise from Dr. Gersh 😊

    Thank you SO MUCH for this education. I am 75. Total hysterectomy at 40 then stopped all estrogen at 60. Now I have a vaginal prolapse and wear a pessary with leaky bladder. The GYN I saw has put me on vaginal estradiol 2ml 2X week and I recently learned I can use a low dose on my face and hands. I have also had 2 bladder suspensions. I guess some of this could have been avoided with the continuation of estrogen. : (

    I just don't understand why if menopause is normal, why would one need to add something that nature has stopped delivering. I'm 72 and don't seem to have any problems of the type described, except if I try to insert anything, that is uncomfortable. But the outside is fine and no infections or any such. I was thinking I might want to moisturize, just in case.

      Your vagina has atrophied.. that's why its uncomfortable. It essentially shrunk. Most women have no idea what is occurring inside their bodies. And also you are living in a world that is deficient in minerals and proper nutrition. We are all living in a chemical soup. You were born in the early 50s.
