Cyborg,
KY is considered to be not so great by most natural therapists because of the ingredients. You might want to consider using organic coconut, almond or olive oils. There have been some good recommendations farther up the page. Wish I could offer something else. I even tried the KY sensitive jelly but it burned like hell on those fragile tissues. Not nice!

Blessings20, thank you for posting about also the vaginal bleeding during sex is when it happens to me. It is embarrassing and I use KY without estrogen, have yet to try the scream scream espicially with the bleeding (bleeding and scream in the same sentance scare the yell outta me lol....). I am to the point of using the vag a fem no matter the estrogen costs. Anyone else have relief from the bleeding with any of the above mentioned products?
I did not realize when I started this thread that so many like me were suffering.......again I thought it was just me and as always you girls have come thru!

Ladies. Read this thread and HAD to chime in. I went through this about 15 years ago after a run of Lupron for endo. Had to use lidocaine gel for over a year. My gyn finally sent me to a specialist at UCSD that deals with vaginal vestibulitis. Apparently it can be brought on by rapid menopause from ooph or meds. In my case it caused chronic inflammation of the Bartholins glands that sit just inside the hymenal ring. These glands are partly responsible for natural lubrication during intercourse. I had what is called a vestibulectomy to surgically remove these glands and never had painful intercourse again. Please do yourselves a favor and at least look into this. It may not be the problem but if it is you might actually be able to fix it. Good bye lidocaine (and whatever the heck scream cream is...lol)
