▲ 15 r/Choir

Hey all,
I am part of a 70ish ppl strong community choir in the UK, the age bracket is thirties and up. It's my second term with the choir and, despite being a lady, I sing with the tenors because that's what's been easier for me (alto parts are too high and I can hit all the tenor notes). I am the only woman in a group of around 10 male tenors. They are all really nice and friendly and have welcomed me with open arms.
Our section lead is not in this term as he has family commitments. The choir has asked for someone to volunteer and step in, but it's been two weeks and no one has. On one hand, I wouldn't mind doing it, on the other I am conscious that it would be much better for a man to do it.. I don't want to feel like I am invading their space. But maybe I am overthinking it...? WWYD?

Hey all, I'm 46 and have been suffering with dry and itchy vulva for a few years. Finally I decided it was enough, had an appointment with a (very understanding) lady GP at my surgery and she prescribed me Estriol 1mg to apply locally. So far so good... the cream is helping immensely already with the issue (I'm on day 10 of the loading phase), however it's been now 5 nights where I wake up at 4:30AM-ish and am unable to fall asleep again.
Please tell me that if I switch to morning applications this will pass. At the moment, I'm ready to go back to my sandpaper vulva if the tradeoff is being able to sleep again (and function during the day).
