One of the best things that
happened for women, in my opinion, in 2010, the American College of Oncologists, the cancer doctors,
issued a position statement reassuring women that use of an estrogen cream on your
pelvic floor, on your vaginal walls is not putting you at risk of systemic cancers and long - term risk of heart disease and stroke and things that we know that come from taking systemic hormones over the long term.
Unfortunately, that little bit of sneeze - pee that
happens every now and then is an indication that your
pelvic floor muscles are not functioning as well as they should and it does increase your risk of other, more serious
pelvic floor issues later on.
