Hi Surgtech, My gyn put me on vaginal estrogen for thinning perineal tissue, and it has really helped me to be more comfortable "in the saddle", (when I quit, I get urethritis from riding) There are hormone impregnated vaginal rings, creams, and tiny vaginal suppositories. I prefer the latter, although they are expensive. Also, my coaches' motto is "minimal chamois time" - get out of those soggy shorts as soon as you can! I also like to carry personal wipe packets(massengil) for use in sub-optimal bathroom conditions when I ride. The vaginal estrogen may actually help you alot. good luck! Tokie
