I have been given a prescription for this estrogen giving cream, after breast cancer treatment that makes me afraid to use it. It will, of course, be helpful to my marriage, but I'm afraid it will be harmful to my body. Any suggestions?

RE: Premarin cream

Hi, Were you estrogen receptor positive? Also does your oncologist approve your using the cream? Margaret

RE: Premarin cream

Hi, I had breast cancer in 1995, I used premarin cream until last week. The doctor told me it CAN be absorbed through the skin. I have an appointment Friday with a surgeon. I have just been diagnosed with ovarain cancer. The doctor recommeded KY jelly. A little late though. I would never have used it if I had known it can be absorbed. Good luck.
