No but I swear it gives a vaginal infection. I am postmenapausal and keep having bacterial infections here and there. Cant figure it out.

I have a hard time to believe this. My medical specialty is infection control & prevention. Estrogen cream causes better blood supply, and better blood supply helps to fight infections.
Unless you introduce bacteria while applying the cream, it is very unlikely that the cream is the reason for your bacterial infections.
Your doctor should cultureize the bacteria causing your infection to see which strain it is.
