Hi,
Yes, using vaginal estrogen does have risks that include blot clots and increased risk for breast cancer.
However, it is important to call your doctor and understand WHY they have stopped your prescription and what your other treatment options are post-surgery for your symptoms.
Please do not allow a doctor to "take something away" without fully understanding the reasoning, as well as your other options.
Let us know what your doctor says, and we can help you research other treatment options that he/she recommends!
How is your hip feeling after surgery? Are you using pain medication or other treatment after surgery, and do you know if you are able to resume your premarin prescription after your body is healed from surgery? Regardless, please let your doctor know that you are experiencing symptoms that are not related to hip surgery, and ask what your appropriate treatment options are.
