Latest on using topical oestrogen creams like Ovestin while on Letrozole or similar
I've nearly done 4y on letrozole. My breast cancer was 6mm ER/PR positive. I had local wide incision followed by radiotherapy, no chemo. I was told to stop using Ovestin Cream and Vagifem. I get UTIs and vaginal dryness and soreness. I'd dearly like to recommence Ovestin. My GP said the medical thinking was changing a little toward allowing use of topical oestrogen creams while still on Letrozole etc. Has anyone else investigated this with their GP/oncologist? Since I was ER and PR positive I have held off but I'd like to know what other people's experience with this has been.
