Understanding the Impact of Oestrogen Loss
When the cells of the vulva and vagina become depleted of oestrogen—a common occurrence during and after menopause—their healthy function deteriorates. This depletion leads to the uncomfortable and often painful symptoms of vaginal atrophy (also known as genitourinary syndrome of menopause, or GSM).
How Does It Affect Daily Life and Intimacy?
The loss of function results in chronic symptoms like dryness, burning and painful intercourse (dyspareunia). Because the thinning, delicate tissue is more susceptible to irritation, women often experience recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) and general discomfort.
Vaginal atrophy can make sexual intimacy impossible and significantly impact a woman's overall well-being. The constant pain and fear of consequences, such as painful contact or infection, often lead to a profound emotional toll, causing individuals and couples to abandon physical contact altogether.
While oestrogen replacement therapy (HRT) is the recommended first-line treatment for Vaginal Atrophy, it often provides only a partial solution.
Comprehensive care must extend beyond correcting the hormonal imbalance to include support for regaining confidence and establishing sustainable intimate health habits.
The ultimate goal isn't just physiological correction; it's about rebuilding a satisfying intimate life to realise its significant psychological, physical and relational benefits.
