A Soothing Solution to Vaginal Dryness During Menopause

Menopause can cause a variety of symptoms and consequences — ranging from hot flashes to bone loss. One that's often overlooked is vaginal dryness.

As your body produces less estrogen during menopause, your vaginal walls thin and become less lubricated. That's why vaginal dryness, itching, and burning are so common among women during this stage of life. Discomfort during sexual intimacy can also occur.

The good news is you may not have to live with vaginal dryness.

PREMARIN Vaginal Cream is a therapy that can soothe irritated tissues in and around the vagina. And it doesn't just mask symptoms temporarily. Unlike over-the-counter lubricants and moisturizers, PREMARIN Vaginal Cream actually reverses changes in the vagina that occur with menopause and can help maintain this reversal with continued use. By restoring some of the estrogen lost at menopause, PREMARIN Vaginal Cream can provide relief of vaginal symptoms — not just right after you apply it.

Ask your health care professional about PREMARIN Vaginal Cream. To make the conversation easier, print out the Doctor Discussion Checklist and bring it along to your next doctor visit. You can also receive up to a $10 rebate by mail for your first prescription of PREMARIN Vaginal Cream.

On this site you can also learn more about what causes vaginal dryness, what happens to your body during menopause, and how PREMARIN Vaginal Cream works to relieve vaginal dryness.
