VAGINAL DRYNESS/ATROPHY

What is it?

Vaginas produce a lubricant to prevent dryness, however there are instances where this production is decreased, resulting in vaginal dryness. Vaginal atrophy is when an individual is suffering from dryness and experiences urinary trouble at the same time. It is a very common condition that could occur for any woman, but the prevalence increases significantly in postmenopausal women.

What are the symptoms?

Vaginal dryness can lead to patients experiencing:

  • Pain during intercourse
  • Burning, pain or itching
  • Frequent UTIs or need to urinate
  • Soreness

In addition, vaginal dryness could affect an individual’s self esteem and overall mental health. It could be viewed as something embarrassing for the patients and lead them to try ignoring the symptoms for the sake of minimizing further complications.

What are the causes?

Vaginal dryness is most associated with menopause. When the body begins decreasing estrogen production certain processes such as the natural lubrication of the vagina slow down.

There exist other factors that could contribute to dryness including:

  • Radiation or chemotherapy
  • Removal of the ovaries (surgery)
  • Childbirth
