…vaginal hormones for treating urinary tract infections and sexual dysfunction
“You take it on your finger and you rub it into the walls of the vagina and you rub it into the walls of the vagina. And you can rub it on the outer, this area as well at the opening. So you take the, what is this cream called? It's estradiol cream. Estradiol. Take it on your finger. You rub it inside the walls of the vagina like this. And just rub it in like you would rub sunscreen on your face. And if you do that twice a week, you can prevent death from urinary tract infections.”

Intrarosa👍 Recommends
…FDA-approved vaginal DHEA product for treating urinary tract infections and sexual pain
“This is something called DHEA. Now, DHEA is the precursor hormone to estrogen and testosterone. And remember, I said the vulva, the vagina, the bladder need testosterone too. So this is a chemical that converts into estrogen and testosterone. And so DHEA is a supplement you can buy, you know, sort of in the supplement aisle. But if you put it locally in the vagina, this is an FDA-approved product. It's called Intrarosa. And if you just put this in the vagina, it's meant for every night. But you can do it twice a week. It melts at bedtime when you wake up. And it prevents UTIs. It helps with pain with sex.”
