    Hi... I'm new here - I know this thread is a little old, but I was going through the forums and your questions definitely sounded like some of the problems I used to go through (back in the day when Terry saddles were a brand new thing, and the whole idea of gear and clothing made to fit women was revolutionary).

    You've gotten good advice so far, but just a couple of other things.

    The first one might be really obvious to you, but it took me YEARS of bleeding labia to figure it out: Trim that hair. As short as you can get it with scissors. Shaving or waxing aren't usually a good idea because of the risk of ingrown hairs and infections. But if you're as hairy as I was, it's like sitting on a ScotchBrite pad. Of course it's going to abrade.

    I also used to use really thick lubes like A&D ointment or Aquaphor, but I'm much more comfortable since switching to the lighter Chamois Butt'r - which incidentally washes right out without turning the rest of your laundry greasy.
