For Dyspareunia "I've been taking Osphena for 3 months for painful intercourse. My doctor said to give it 3 months, and I did, but sex still hurts, and the side effects are pretty bothersome. Hot flashes, weight gain, bloating, and the worst is the bitchiness. My husband said he'd rather have his sweet wife back. I'm calling the doctor today, but leaning toward stopping it."

For Vaginal Dryness "Ok, so I started over a week ago on Osphena, and every day I have horrible migraine. I'm tired and am starting to feel the weight gain and bloating also. No night sweats or leg cramps. But I am not going to continue. I read the side effects, and it's not worth it to me."

For Atrophic Vaginitis "Have been using Osphena for approximately 4 months. It has helped with the dryness, but now the bloating is unbearable. All of a sudden, my stomach has gotten like a beach ball and feels horrible. I’m sure this is what it is from. Asked to go back on estate cream."

For Atrophic Vaginitis "I used this for only two months, had horrible bloating and leg cramps. I stopped. It did help a tremendous amount with the dryness, but the cramps just weren't worth it. They were several times a day!"
