When vaginal dryness became a huge issue for me, my gynecologist encouraged me to try using a small amount of an estrogen-based product. However, my lumpectomy made me too fearful of anything estrogen-related. My urologist recommended applying a pea-sized amount of Organic Virgin Coconut Oil to my vagina several times a day as well as taking 6 Desert Harvest Aloe Vera capsules daily . That was several years ago. Since then I have eliminated the aloe vera capsules and reduced the coconut oil application to once daily. I have no vaginal discomfort and haven’t even had a hint of a pink stain since that time. UTIs are a thing of the past.
