I'm 3 weeks pp, had a vaginal delivery. Everything down there is dry - my labia, my vagina are all dry and it's uncomfortable. I'm not even at the point of wanting sex, I just mean in normal life day to day.

Noticed today that my labia and around my clit, my skin is peeling. At least I'm pretty sure it's not discharge.

I've been prescribed estrogen cream. I'm trying to put some in my vagina as prescribed, but I'm honestly scared to put anything up into my vagina. So I'm trying just a small amount with the tip of my finger.

But what can I do about my labia? I know I'll need tons of lube for sex, but I just want go do something to stop the peeling/dryness all the time because it's making me sore.

Anyone else?
