Just found this site. Has anyone with VIN been given Aldara cream to use. I tried using it 2 different times but the side effects are terrible, i can say that after having 3 biopsies already for this i thought this cream would be a good idea but its not for me. I am suppose to go back and see my gyn/onc this month and am afraid we will have to do another biopsy because i have been having some burning going on.
THis is so depressing. I am 49 yrs old first diagnoised 6 months ago.
I have been doing as much research on this as i can. Has anyone heard of the supplement "DIM" fjor treating the HPV and mild dysplasia I have been reading about it. Some women swear by it and say when they went to the doctors after using it for a month or 2 no Vin was found in their biopsies.
I cant believe we never heard of this before and now there are hundreds maybe thousands of us women who have it.
All i know is that Aldara cream made me so sore and blistery that i couldnt go to work and also headaches,flu like symptoms I stopped using it. Not sure what to do now I sent my doctor a message asking if i should try this DIM supplement. so now i wait to see if he has even heard of it. sorry this is so long but people around me have no idea what this does to you. and my sex life with my husband is almost nil. I just dont have the desire and i feel like im mutalated down there. just needed to vent to someone.:confused:

Hi Terrie, I'm sorry you are dealing with this. I didn't have VIN, I had cervical cancer. I know some women who have discussed DIM over on the Cervical and Ovarian Cancer board (here at Health Boards). They also are discussing a mushroom, but I don't know what it is called. You might go check it out.
I wish I had more info for you!
