Vaginal Dryness Treatments

Vaginal dryness is a common condition that affects many women, particularly during menopause, postpartum, or due to hormonal changes. It can cause discomfort, pain during intercourse, and a decline in sexual satisfaction. Fortunately, there are effective treatments available to alleviate symptoms and restore vaginal health. Dr. Kanchi Khurana, a highly skilled gynaecologist, specializes in diagnosing and treating vaginal dryness, offering personalized care to help women regain their comfort and confidence.

Vaginal dryness occurs when the vaginal tissues lack sufficient moisture and lubrication. This can result from:

• Hormonal Changes: Menopause, breastfeeding, or hormonal imbalances.
• Medications: Certain drugs, such as antihistamines or antidepressants.
• Medical Conditions: Conditions like Sjögren’s syndrome or autoimmune disorders.
• Lifestyle Factors: Smoking, stress, or inadequate hydration.

Symptoms of vaginal dryness include itching, burning, pain during intercourse, and increased susceptibility to infections.

Addressing vaginal dryness is essential for:

• Relieving Discomfort: Reducing itching, burning, and irritation.
• Improving Sexual Health: Enhancing lubrication and reducing pain during intercourse.
• Preventing Infections: Maintaining a healthy vaginal environment.
• Boosting Confidence: Helping women feel more comfortable and confident in their bodies.

Dr. Kanchi Khurana offers a range of personalized treatment options tailored to each patient’s unique needs:

Topical Treatments

• Vaginal Moisturizers: Over-the-counter or prescription moisturizers applied regularly to maintain vaginal hydration.
• Lubricants: Water-based or silicone-based lubricants used during intercourse to reduce friction and discomfort.

Hormonal Therapies

• Vaginal Estrogen: Creams, tablets, or rings that deliver low-dose estrogen directly to the vaginal tissues.
• Systemic Hormone Therapy: Oral or transdermal estrogen for women experiencing broader menopausal symptoms.

Non-Hormonal Treatments

• Laser Therapy: Uses laser energy to stimulate collagen production and improve vaginal moisture.
• Radiofrequency (RF) Therapy: Delivers heat energy to rejuvenate vaginal tissues and enhance lubrication.

Lifestyle Changes

• Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to maintain overall hydration.
• Avoid Irritants: Use gentle, fragrance-free products for intimate hygiene.
