For Vaginal Dryness "I get intense burning from the usage of Replens and bad cramps. My cramps aren't uterine because I had a hysterectomy years ago, so I know these cramps are actually from the burning inside my vagina, which mimics period cramps. These symptoms aren't something someone would expect from a product that is supposed to be helpful. It doesn't work well for my vaginal dryness either. I'm throwing the rest of the box out, which makes me mad because it's way overpriced. I don't trust this product."

For Vaginal Dryness "I’ve tried before, didn’t connect the burning with the product until this time. After the third application, I felt a burn coming on, and over an hour or so got so intense I felt like I had to give birth to a ball of acid. It hurt to urinate like a severe UTI. I have chills and feel like my bladder is spasming. I know it’s not a UTI because I checked my urine. This stuff also, I think, mixes with the normal vaginal secretions and is causing the white clumps that feel like grit almost. I’m not sure if this is an allergic reaction or what, but I wouldn’t wish this burning UTI pain on my worst enemy. I’m not sure that using any vaginal gel, cream, etc., is healthy as I can see how it would cause a UTI or worse. What’s even worse, a NP told me to use it."

For Vaginal Dryness "During 10 months of use, I started to experience severe bloating over the past 2 months, some burning, swelling, and just recently cramping on and off. Also, white discharge is more frequent. I too wish I had read these comments sooner. I used it yesterday and will never use it again. The product needs to be improved or taken off the market. I also thought that I had a UTI a while back, and other times, and tested negative with urinalysis and culture each time. I'll continue with external gel HRT."

For Vaginal Dryness "When I used it, I immediately felt the dryness go away. After a few hours, I started to burn, and a rubber-like residue came out on my underwear. I decided to investigate, and omg."

For Vaginal Dryness "Literally, within seconds, I had (and still have) severe burning. I wish I had looked up reviews before I used it. I'm scared."
For Vaginal Dryness "My doctor recommended Replens, as I am suffering from severe vaginal dryness. I used my first applicator when I went to bed. Burning and itching immediately started, and it was so uncomfortable I did not sleep all night. In the morning, I had backache, nausea, and low-grade fever. I will not be using the product again."
