Tamoxifen side effect relief please?!
A rather intimate subject I know, but I am wondering if anyone can recommend an over the counter cream to relieve vaginal dryness which I believe has been caused by the Tamoxifen I have now been takin...

The Tamoxifen dried me out so much that my delicate skin down there was itchy and sore. GP suggested canesten, and gave me a pap test? Came back clear. As phase 2 of my bc journey, I have had ovaries removed along with tubes, uterus and cervix. Surgery put me into menopause like hitting a brick wall. So I have moved my focus to the hysta-sista web site, same problems just different stories, anyway the main choice of product there is pure virgin coconut oil (from health shop). I know that the BCNA don't recommend it, not sure why but I have found it a lifesaver. I put the smallest bit on, instant relief the skin seems to suck it up, currently using it 2-3 times per week. Have not been given the go ahead for sex yet, so will have to try sylk then.
