Vaginal atrophy. Why didn't someone warn me?

Happy to chat anytime @Vallerina have you thought even of Dragon Boat racing. Encore did not run here in winter so maybe the case on Sunshine Coast worth a try. Some of the local ladies I've met have had it much tougher than me but they are not gloomy and getting on with their lives you may be surprised I was - some are older than me but a lot of get up and went.It is good to catch up with them every now and then for coffee but even better to see them at the shops buying spuds or going to the hairdresser or filling up with petrol it means I am not alone and I can get on with my life too.I think it's important to live life normally and not hide from bc - take risks that people will handle your situation and most do after getting over the initial shock although some may need a bit more time than others.BC is a great leveller and there is much to learn from within our community and also outside it . I wish you the  courage to look outside your situation - you might find there are a lot of really nice people about and more particularly that life is still good. xo
