Vaginal atrophy is the thinning, drying, and inflammation of the vaginal walls that occurs as estrogen levels drop. It is mostly more pronounced after menopause. Vaginal atrophy can cause painful intercourse, and an increase in UTIs, as well as other urinary symptoms.
Treatments
Sometimes, vaginal estrogen creams are recommended. Also, the MonaLisa Touch is an excellent treatment for vaginal atrophy. MonaLisa Touch® prevents and resolves estrogen drops in the vaginal tissue (typically occurring during menopause or after childbirth) by re-activating the production of new collagen and reestablishing the conditions that the vaginal mucosa once had. MonaLisa Touch® is now the most effective non-surgical and non-pharmacological solution for preventing and treating vaginal atrophy and its after-effects, which many women suffer from during menopause and after childbirth.
