Thanks for the info, I am having a problem with frequent UTI caused because the doc said that I have Atrophic Vaginitis and to try coconut oil. Cannot use estrogens as I am a Breast Cancer survivor. I tried the Coconut oil but mine had gotten grainy, so it did not work. I used Vit E oil, it helped as did using Aquapor, wonder if that is okay to use?

@4dianeb stick with the coconut oil if that’s what your doctor prescribed. It’s cheap. I used mine after it got lumpy, just smoothed it out in my hand first. I prefer Carrington brand, just be sure not to get the one that has Gee in it. Plain coconut oil. It’s in a solid state until it’s warmed by your skin. I recently got some liquid and don’t like it as well.
