Vaginal estrogen: It takes at least a couple of weeks for vaginal estrogen to improve vaginal health and reduce pain during intercourse. Hang in there with the treatment -- this probably will improve fairly soon. Of course this assumes that low estrogen -- at your age, usually associated with menopause -- is the cause of your painful sex. If in doubt, check with the doctor who prescribed the Vagifem. Good luck.
