[00:00:00] Speaker A: Here are three all natural products I wish I would have had 10 years ago.
[00:00:06] Speaker B: Did you know that up to 85% of women will experience vaginal dryness sometime in her life? That is the majority of women. And a dry vagina means uncomfortable sex.
[00:00:19] Speaker A: And for many couples that means no sex. So if you are a woman this can be prevented and if you are a man the chances are high that this will happen to your female partner.
[00:00:31] Speaker B: Uncomfortable, painful sex and low libido is such a big topic with so much information. So we are doing a four part series on vulva health and this is part two.

[00:01:40] Speaker A: Okay, let's dig into this super unsexy topic that is going to make your sex super sexy. So we're talking about vaginal dryness and vaginal atrophy. Because all female reproductive systems will go through menopause, vaginal atrophy is extremely common.
[00:02:05] Speaker B: Some studies suggest that anywhere between 50 to 85% of postmenopausal women experience symptoms related to vaginal atrophy. Additionally, breast cancer survivors who require treatment involving blocking estrogen will will also experience this regardless of their age.
[00:02:23] Speaker A: Managing female dryness is like a race against aging, and some vulvas and vaginas will age faster than others.
[00:02:34] Speaker B: Vaginal dryness is the first stage to vaginal atrophy. It's a common condition in women where the vaginal walls become thin, inflamed and dry.
[00:02:43] Speaker A: So this can cause pain, burning and itching in the vaginal area and can also affect the vulva and create clitoral atrophy.
[00:02:55] Speaker B: There's a lot of things that can cause vaginal dryness that aren't attached to aging. However, the main culprit is low estrogen levels which can occur after menopause, childbirth, breastfeeding, cancer treatments or taking anti estrogen drugs.
[00:03:11] Speaker A: Non hormonal factors can include cold and allergy medications, some antidepressants and Sjorgan's syndrome.
[00:03:19] Speaker B: So here's what you may be experiencing with vaginal pain during intercourse, sitting, exercising.
[00:03:26] Speaker A: Or urinating, burning or itching in the vaginal area, abnormal vaginal discharge, frequent or.
[00:03:36] Speaker B: Painful urination, soreness in the vulva and finally recurrent urinary tract infections or UTIs or yeast infections. UTIs are the absolute worst. Lately I've been getting them more frequently and I nearly lose my mind. They are so irritating and uncomfortable. I am definitely a baby about it.
[00:03:55] Speaker A: Yeah, UTIs are dreadful. And when I was breastfeeding both my children it was the first experience I had with painful intercourse and I tried to speak to my doctor about it but he brushed me off saying it would end when breastfeeding finished. And although he was right, I did feel a lot of shame being dismissed because it doesn't matter how much lubricant you use because it's not about being wet, it's about the vaginal opening being sore.
[00:04:27] Speaker B: What angers me about this particular example that you just gave is you went and you asked for help like I think so many women do, and you asked your doctor expecting some sort of, you know, solution and they just brushed you off. And I think that exact same thing happens to women daily and they end up just stopping asking for help. So thanks for sharing that Trina. I think what's important to know here is that even though we are sexologists, we also feel shame when our bodies aren't working the way that we want them to. Nuve is the first and only remedy using research backed nutrients that directly nourish the vaginal wall tissues supporting collagen and elasticity and this will relieve painful sex, itching, burning, odor, discharge and supports a healthy ph.
[00:05:17] Speaker A: Scientist and gynecologist Dr. Chang formulated three levels of vaginal moisturizers based on a woman's age. So gold is for women under 45 and pre menopausal, Silver is for women experiencing moderate vaginal dryness and that's for women 45 to 55 and Silk is is for women 55 to 70.
