Yes coconut oil is great for comfort and for sex. But and here's the biggest but, it does not stop the vaginal tissues from thinning like estrace does. It also prevents UTIs which is very important as we age. Very little gets absorbed systemically

@jeanninec I don’t have sex, don’t want to so my vaginal tissues do very well on the coconut oil. Perfectly well actually. I can’t speak to whether it works for someone interested in sex. I haven’t had a UTI in about 50 years, so I’m good there, too. I do not drink sodas at all and drink a lot of clean water everyday.
