  6. Give xanthan gum a try. Test it out for yourself, and see. It's great.

    There are some tricks to getting it to mix with water without clumping, because it clumps very very quickly. Slowly adding it to a fast vortex of water, using a blender, an immersion blender or something similar, works well. Once you get the technique down, it's easy. It's surprisingly good stuff and very economical.

    You don't need much — maybe ⅛-¼ tsp per ½ cup of water (adjust up or down to achieve desired consistency). A little goes a long way.

  9. Personally, I think coconut oil is the best natural lubricant. It is both anti-fungal and anti-bacterial so it keeps your flora balanced. I have been using that method for ten years and it works the best for me.

  10. Estradiol actually reverses the atrophy and other issues though, it's not just for lubricating. Also, the MonaLisa Touch laser can completely regenerate the tissues.

  11. a health thing I would love to know is: does wearing polyester clothes or sleepwear have health impacts.. like cancer etc… I wear and sleep in polyester clothes.. (soooo warm) but can polyester impact my health??? Love from Joyce from The Netherlands.

  17. Any woman experiencing this issue, no matter her age, may want to watch this presentation by Rachel Rubin, MD and Katherine Kloss, MD, both experts in their field of women's vaginal health. While moisturizers and lubricants may help with 'surface' issues, there are deeper issues re: vaginal health such as UTI's and bladder function that may be dangerous/uncomfortable as we age. Dr. Rubin recommends a small amount of hormonal cream to deal with the constellation of issues. And no, they do not circulate throughout the body. Women with breast cancer are able to use these small amounts of non-systemic hormone creams to stop the horrible UTI and other problems of aging with a vagina.

  19. I have not seen "Yes" lubricant anywhere. Please provide more information on it. I have seen "Ah, Yes" which is expensive. Hormone treatment, natural or not, did not work for me to fix this problem.

  21. Vaginal atrophy unfortunately can take place at any age, for example from using oral birth control pills and/or getting trush which needs medication, that is abrasive. The trush usually comes from using sythetic hormones as well.

  24. I recommend my clients find a compounding pharmacy that will make a straight hyaluronic acid moisturizer. Personally, I’ve found it to be the best and safest. Many women are reluctant or can’t introduce anything that is hormone based.
