Yes. She did some precautions mammogram and Gyno-exam. All clear and for 9 days she’s been taking .5 mg estrodial and 100 mg progrestin. It my understand .625 estrodial is a more successful dose but Kaiser permanente is conservative. Taking pills over creams or patches. So far breast tenderness and some abdominal pain that is “like cramps pain but not exactly the same.” The location suggest ovaries but that’s hard to tell. The symptoms fluctuate in severity but are mild to moderate. F’ing up our sex but I am seeing the big picture down the road.

Questions: symptoms will last how long? How long to see vaginal wall thickening and or suppleness return? Should we be having sex to help things along or let it occur with time.

I know we should direct these questions to her doc and we will but I’m curious about other people’s experience. I’m sure it’s depends on the person...case by case... but I’d still like feedback.

Update: my wife has taken progestin and Estrogen for over 3 months now in the doses I stated earlier. All her symptoms of vaginal pain and are totally gone. Her breast are 15 years younger...they are fuller and rounder like they were before meno. They may be slightly larger...tiny bit though. She’s taking 5 mg anavar tabs once a day and her sex drive has risen dramatically. That was three weeks ago. At first we were conservative. She was taking 1/3 a pill (10mg pills) and saw no affect. Then she got frustrated and took 3 full 10 mg pills in three days and boom off the charts...so the pills are legit. Backed off to 1/2 a pill and it appears to be the sweet spot. No viralization symptoms at all. She went from desiring sex once a week at best to 3-4 times a week. We’ve found that more than that and she’s just not recovering her sensitivity fast enough to reach strong orgasms. If we ease up with a day or two break and she’s primed. If she waits 4-5 days she is very very orgasmic. Frankly, this does not seem real to us. Maybe the risks do not justify the gains but going from little and very unsatisfying sex...heck painful sex to this is amazing. If anyone with more experience that can tell us we’re nuts adding the anavar we want to hear it. She does not have a death wish and I want her to out live me by a ton. She is my world and means everything even without the sex. But if we can have our cake and eat it too...well that would be nice.

Feedback please..,
