Burning urethra and vaginal atrophy

The cream is inserted vaginally at bedtime so theoretically it has done its job by morning after most of it comes out. They didn’t mention that a patch was available but got the impression they were trying to avoid a systemic solution.
So are you saying I should expect for these sensations to stop? Thanks for your reply.

I had the same experience until I started using the cream directly on the urethra every night before bed. Initially, I experienced some stinging from the direct application, but it eventually subsided. Now I have no uncomfortable urethral sensations. I continue to use a small amount every night. As a bonus, I haven't had a UTI since using the cream in this way.
Do you have a menopause expert in your health system? These are questions that should be answered by a health care person and if they don't have the expertise they should refer you

@srb6 Sorry, I don’t know if it would stop the sensations. I had used vaginal estradiol in the past, and for me, it just dripped out so I didn’t think it did much for the urethra. By the time estradiol patches were used more often my sister got breast cancer and they would no longer prescribe estradiol for me. Then I got breast cancer, so there was no question about it for me.
