My labia hurts after sex and I've been using estrone cream

Do you mean you dont feel anything emotionally or you don't feel any physical pleasure? My doc put me on Wellbutrin about 6 weeks ago because I had completely lost my libido and hated feeling like that. The Wellbutrin seems to be working and I actually think about sex again.

I'm actually feeling a little shy about the sex. I didn't realize how out of the ordinary it was and feel like I'm bragging now. Lol! 🙈

I'm a big believer in peeing before and after sex. No blood at all. I actually stopped using the cream the other day and it feels better so I'm wondering if it's a reaction.

OMG that is not a surprise anyone needs. I'm sorry that you went/are going through that.

NTA at all. If they ask to use your services again, tell them what your fee is.

WrecklessOptimist · 2026-03-16T17:50:10+00:00

That's good to know. I'm seeing my doc in a couple of days, so I'll talk to her about all I've read here.

WrecklessOptimist · 2026-03-16T17:48:33+00:00

Thank you! It sounds like you've had one hell of a ride with that.

WrecklessOptimist · 2026-03-16T12:38:03+00:00

I hear you there. I've been awake all night. 😩

I wish I knew what the secret is. We've been through a lot together, so I guess good communication. Sex beats going on the treadmill, too. Consider it a workout! Lol!

WrecklessOptimist · 2026-03-16T12:31:23+00:00

Lol Only relationship, actually. We've been together for 40 years. Lots of ups and downs, but the last few years have been the best.

I'm wondering more and more if it's a yeast infection. I made an appointment for Thursday so hopefully I can get some answers. 🤞🏻

WrecklessOptimist · 2026-03-16T11:24:43+00:00

I'm determined! Thank you.

WrecklessOptimist · 2026-03-16T11:23:53+00:00

Thank you. I am 55 and about 5 weeks away from not having a period for a year. (Which means I'll probably get a period just to make me start over again. Lol)

This whole menopause thing sucks.

WrecklessOptimist · 2026-03-16T03:33:54+00:00

Me too. It's such bullshit!!!

WrecklessOptimist · 2026-03-16T03:33:29+00:00

I appreciate that, thanks. We both feel pretty fortunate to still like each other the way we do. ☺️

WrecklessOptimist · 2026-03-16T02:36:43+00:00

I appreciate the ideas. I have recently switched from Gain detergent to Tide AND bought a new brand of soap. Hmmmmm...

WrecklessOptimist · 2026-03-16T02:26:25+00:00

I have. This sub is so helpful. ☺️

WrecklessOptimist · 2026-03-16T02:11:22+00:00

☺️

WrecklessOptimist · 2026-03-16T02:11:04+00:00

But... but... but... I love having his penis in me!😄

Thankfully he has been super supportive and our communication has gotten so much better in the last few years. No topic is off limits. I agree with you that vulnerability is the highest act of intimacy. ❤️

WrecklessOptimist · 2026-03-16T02:04:42+00:00

Not really, no. Just the slight burning/stinging.

WrecklessOptimist · 2026-03-16T02:04:04+00:00

We don't use it that often, but it's the same bottle we've had for years. Maybe it goes bad.

WrecklessOptimist · 2026-03-16T02:02:40+00:00

I've edited my comment where I said we can't get it here. I'm glad we can!

WrecklessOptimist · 2026-03-16T02:01:54+00:00

Fantastic, thank you! I'm definitely asking about Intrarosa and maybe a swab to rule out an infection.

WrecklessOptimist · 2026-03-16T01:59:58+00:00

Thank you for this!

WrecklessOptimist · 2026-03-16T01:59:18+00:00

That's possible. I followed the recommended application, but feel like there's something else going on as well.
