Since completing chemotherapy, my libido has returned but I’m experiencing severe vaginal dryness. Other than traditional hormone replacement therapy, what are some treatments for excessive vaginal dryness that have been effective for you?

I’ve heard coconut oil can help get things back to normal? I’m desperate to get the physical intimacy back in my marriage 😢

My gynecologist recommended a product called Revaree by a company called Bonafide. It is a hyaluronic acid suppository that is inserted every 3 days. It does work pretty well(better than anything else I’ve used).

Hubby found a lubricant you use every 3 days at Walmart. Works wonders. Replens... I think is the name. Use it at bedtime or it gets messy. It's about 15.00 a month.

I am happy that your healing from the incision. but yeah I have been having vaginal dryness and a couple of yeast infection but I am not even sexually active I lost my libido long time ago. I keep telling my poor husband that I am dry inside out and that I am going to find him another lady.

@A MyBCTeam Member I am so glad to hear about your incision improving. That seems to be the norm. First it looks and feels like nothing is happening and then it does . My first week after lumpectomy it looked awful and then all of sudden it was looking better.
