Vaginal Dryness, Vaginal Atrophy & Vulvitis During Menopause
Decreased function of estrogens can specifically result in vaginal dryness and vaginal atrophy which can bring about vaginal pain, itching and burning as well as painful intercourse. Decreased testosterone function may also contribute to or precipitate vaginal atrophy as well as inflammation, itching and pain of the vulva, presenting as vulvitis. A combination of symptoms may be seen when there is decreased function of both estrogens and testosterone. Restoring optimal function of both estrogens and androgens can significantly benefit vaginal health.

Other Considerations
Even though vaginal dryness, vaginal atrophy & vulvitis in menopause may simply be due to changes in hormones that can be addressed with one or more of the Hormone Specific™ Formulations, it is important to discuss these symptoms with a healthcare professional to make sure that there is not a more serious medical condition that needs to be addressed.
If there are other symptoms that may be due to menopause changes, consider using the Menopause Type® Questionnaire to do a more comprehensive analysis of which hormone problems may be involved.
