Organic coconut oil applied externally only to the labia every night after my shower has permanently healed my tears.

Greetings, ladies:
There is a reason to use an estrogen-containing vaginal creme. The decreased level of estrogen we have after menopause can cause several difficulties, both vaginal dryness and loss of muscle strength and flexibility. The estrogen in the cream improves the muscle strength and flexibility, which in turn can yield greater urinary control. I don't think an oil or a cream which does not contain estrogen can treat the urinary symptoms. An estrogen containing cream contains a very low concentration of estrogen.
