For Atrophic Vaginitis "Agree with others that the Yuvafem packaging is terrible. Have to use scissors and have cut my fingers on the packaging. The applicator is not very comfortable but works fine. I’ve never had a problem with tablets falling out or not dissolving completely. Biggest complaint is the medication does very little to help with painful dryness and causes me horrible hot flashes and flu-like aching, as well as terrible joint pain."

For Atrophic Vaginitis "I have been using Yuvafem for one month. As soon as I used the product that night, I woke up with hot flashes. I am 74 years old. I don't think hot flashes is a good reaction to this product. Going to try to get original Vagifem back."

For Atrophic Vaginitis "I too was on Vagifem for about 1 1/2 years when my insurance switched me to Yuvafem. After 2 months, I was getting a lot of hot flashes, and the vaginal dryness started to come back. I did appeal to my insurance company, and they just approved for me to get the Vagifem back instead. I have a feeling my copay will go from $30 to $50, but it's worth it to get results. I had no issues with insertion or anything like that, but do believe either the pill dissolved too quickly or too slowly, and that is why I was having my symptoms return."
