Comment:
Within the first week of applying a quarter dose of Estrace cream, I developed a perineal irritation so severe it mimicked a UTI. I even urinated blood. Urine culture indicated no bacteria. Symptoms caused entirely by base carrier ingredient of Extrace. Tried it a second time...same results.

Vaginal itching and dryness has decreased substantially. Also my hot flashes have dimished as well. A nice side effect that I did not expect.
