Post-menopausal symptoms making intimacy impossible

I ran across this article in the TorontoSun.com ----- thought it was important to post for a couple reasons. Ladies, if you are having intimacy problems with your partner, you are NOT alone. You would be amazed at the number of women who write to me telling me they have not had intercourse in years, and that it is having a serious effect on their marriages. There is help out there, but you need to be able to talk to your doctor about the problem. If you (or your doctor) are uncomfortable, think about getting another doctor. Sexual health is important. One of the solutions mentioned in the article is a localized estrogen cream---it's called estriol. I use it for vaginal dryness and it works fine. It is by physician prescription, but it's inexpensive and available at any compounding pharmacy (and my insurance does cover it, check your own carrier for coverage).
