Everyone i’m dr. mei seibel i’m so excited to be here in orlando florida at the annual meeting of the north american menopause society we’ve got experts gathered here from all over the world to bring you the latest information on menopause i’m so excited to share this information with you ask you to introduce yourself i’m a shine mary jane lincoln and you are a
Gynecologist and namm certified menopause practitioner i’m here at the menopause meetings in orlando and you just gave a wonderful presentation on well i don’t know if it’s wonderful but i gave a presentation on vaginal estrogen therapy mm-hmm and tell us what you found okay well it’s just a study of women who were using vaginal estrogen tablets there are many
Different forms of vaginal estrogen that one can use their vaginal estrogen creams rings and tablets and the question is that although they’re all effective the questions arises what motivates women to use one method as opposed to another so this was actually a survey of women who are happily using the vaginal estrogen tablets who had switched previously most of
The women had switched from the use of a vaginal estrogen cream although if you had switched from a ring previously so these are women who came to be using a tablet vaginally who may have been using another type or form of estrogen correct and when we were looking at is why did these women switch what motivated the switch were they happy with their new product and

Switched from rains creams and some had used both and different kinds of and had made a decision that for either aesthetic reasons are the belief that for health reasons they prefer the vaginal pill and that in fact was a satisfactory experience and was helpful to them right exactly they were satisfied with her choice they were more compliant with its use used
It more regularly they felt they were getting good effectiveness from it and they liked the less leakage and the more of ease as you pointed out ascetic pieces they confirm it any other things you want to ask just the theme we have that we have a lot of ways to take care of women as far as vaginal dryness and that i think just to emphasize to our listeners that
They’re certainly very nice over-the-counter remedies for vaginal dryness products like or plans things like that and of course lubricants for sex but if women aren’t achieving as much comfort as we like them to they shouldn’t have any hesitancy to talk to their health care providers about alternative choices including many choices imagine olestra which quite
