Vaginal atrophy and painful intercourse: What helps?

@bp50 I used the estradiol cream for several years and it worked well for me. Unfortunately, as my doctor says, "estradiol is off the table" because I was diagnosed with endometrial cancer in 2019 and have to be careful about what I use. I did not have the dead vaginal cells sloughing off as you describe when I was prescribed estradiol vaginal cream. I was having pain during intercourse so that is what started the discussion on how to manage the vaginal changes.
Does estradiol work for you?

It seems to if I stick to every three days. But it seems to be a fragile improvement. I divorced about 6 years before this became a “fix it” state. So I didn’t have the sexual impact several describe here. I needed to control the yuk and sour smell. But there’s no fixing it. Miss a scheduled day or two and the foul discharge is right back. I just thought perhaps Someone else had a new approach.
