It is the medical term for dry vaginal tissue. It can cause symptoms such as itching, irritation, discomfort during sexual intercourse, and urgency when urinating.
It happens the body's estrogen production decreases, which usually affects women during menopause, breastfeeding, while taking medication, or in periods of prolonged stress.
It’s very common! 40 – 60% of all women will experience these symptoms during or after menopause, while experiencing periods of high stress, or while breastfeeding.
The symptoms associated with dry vaginal tissue can be confused with other vaginal health issues, such as yeast infections or bacterial vaginosis. However, with vaginal atrophy women will not experience vaginal discharge.
