Hi there I changed from Letrozole to Tamoxifen 6 months ago as I had started getting UTI’s after 2 years of being on it. Now I am starting to get them again. I was given Ovestin cream to use twice a week. Have started using it but feel I need it more often maybe daily for now. I’m also taking antibiotics for now for UTI not sure if they are working. Has anyone had this experience. Does anyone use Ovestin. Does anyone have any advice please? Thanks
Hi,
Try Cystopurin Sachets which you could buy over the counter, if the Chemists still have it available, as the panic buyers seem to be buying everything up! I've been prone to UTI's, thankfully not had one for a while and find them really helpful.
Ok I will try and get some. So many things are hard to get at the moment it’s crazy!
Many Thanks
