lactose intolerance and vaginal oestrogen Vagirux?

Hi

I’m awaiting a genetics decision on whether I can try HRT (again). Long story.

In the meantime the most uncomfortable symptom is vaginal dryness. So my GP menopause specialist has prescribed Vagirux.

I’m lactose intolerant, tried 1 tablet last night and was fine first thing this morning. I have pelvic pain, distended tummy, explosive farts and loose bowels. Not sure if it’s this or the turtle beans we had for breakfast or the lactose in Vagirux 🤣

Anyone else experienced this? 🌱

Thank you, GP has prescribed an alternative today as I had numerous side effects. 24hours off it and all resolved. 🙏🌱
