Description
Carrie’s Question: I am currently taking, .25ml’s Biest which is 1.25mg, 70/30 ratio per gram. I apply it to the labia and vaginal area at night, every night. About how long do I have to wait for it to absorb before having intercourse? I am getting conflicting reports. My doctor says I do not have to wait at all, as it will not affect my husband but the pharmacist says, it will affect my husband and not have sex for several hours after application. Thank you.
Short Answer: Carrie is taking a very low dose of Biest. However, she is applying the estrogen cream vaginally, so in theory, her partner could absorb some estrogen during intercourse, but Carrie’s applied dose is only about .30 mg. This small amount of Biest is barely enough to affect Carrie, let alone her husband. If the male partner is worried about the estrogen, simply skip applying the cream until after intercourse. If the Biest cream is being used to help with pain and discomfort during intercourse apply about an hour or so before activity. For vaginal use, we typically only recommend Estriol cream and not Biest, which has both Estradiol and Estriol.

Dr. Maki: Hello everyone. Thank you for joining us for another episode of the Progressional Podcast. I am Dr. Maki.
Dr. Davidson: And I am Dr. Davidson.
Dr. Maki: Well again, we are trying to do our best to get back in the swing of things back in podcasting land. It actually feels pretty good. On the last podcast, we talked a little bit about the book that you have coming out. I would just mention it real fast up for perimenopause plans, going to be available on Amazon. We will keep you up to date when that comes out. If you have any questions, just in general. You can always send us an email at help@progressionhealth.com.
We are going to do another question today again because we took some time off over the summer. We got a whole slew of questions for us to do, this one does come up quite often. Why do not we just dive into it? This question is from Carrie.
Dr. Davidson: We always change everybody’s names and personal information just for privacy, but this is a really good question. We are going to break it up a little bit, give the general answer to it. And then I am going to get probably a little nitpicky on it because I like the math part. But, this is from Carrie. “I am currently taking, .25ml’s biased[?] which is 1.25mg, 70/30 ratio per gram. I apply it to the labia and vaginal area at night, every night. About how long do I have to wait for it to absorb before having intercourse? I am getting conflicting reports. My doctor says I do not have to wait at all, is it will not affect my husband but the pharmacist says, it will. And she capitalizes ‘WILL’, which will affect my husband and not have sex for several hours after application.” Thank you. She is wondering which way should she go?
Dr. Maki: This one comes up a lot and I guarantee you that the husband is worried about the estrogen, right? Men are always worried about little estrogen, It is probably more of his concern, he is more of, what about that estrogen? He does not want to grow boobs or something. To be honest, every man is worried about that, but I do not think it is really that big of a deal. She might not want to apply it vaginally and hav
