Hi everyone,
I have had vaginal burning and last month my uro did the Q tip test. The only "hot spot" was high up right next to my bladder, so she said the burning was coming from my bladder, and not vv. She referred me to a person in her practice that is very knowledgeable about vv and I had a colposcopy. He did a Q tip test and found no "hot spots" inside my vagina and no really hot spots outside, but two areas that turned a little red afterwards and prescribed estradiol w/atropine cream for those areas. Does anyone know if areas of "hot spots" change and go away with different Q tip tests? Also, has anyone had success with estradiol/atropine cream? My doc said that since I caught the vv so early, that it's possible to reverse it completely with the cream. Anyone heard of that either?
Thanks!
Colleen
