No it did not help.
Dr has put me on estradiol. I’m 69.
It’s my first week.
Use twice a week.
She said may help with
My rectal pain. Etc.
Used it last night.
Suppose to take 2 months to notice results. Funny thing today I’ve had several BM I’m. Usually having issues. So not sure if it was because of the estradiol.

I meant several BM today.

@12061948 - I'm sorry to hear the pelvic floor therapy didn't help. Hoping the estradiol will be helpful with the rectal pain.

Since you mentioned estradiol, I'm also tagging a couple of other members who have mentioned it or other hormonal therapy. I'm hoping they may have some ideas for you on the rectal pain and any experiences they can share with taking hormones, like @lorena1egas @mortimer37 @seanlroop @woolfklynn @jenniferhunter.

Encouraging that you may have already seen some effects of the medication, though I know you don't know if it's from the estradiol. What type of estradiol are you taking, then (e.g., vaginal)?
