How does menopause affect sex?

Women often dread menopause, which is the time in their lives when the childbearing years are coming to an end. During the transition into menopause (perimenopause), the female body goes through many hormonal changes, especially concerning estrogen.

In the years leading up to menopause, the female body reduces estrogen production, leading to various uncomfortable symptoms, including hot flashes, mood swings, and night sweats.

But menopause also affects your sex life. The drop in estrogen changes your libido, which can be difficult for your partner.

Vaginal dryness, burning, and fatigue only add to the problem. Your emotions are also on edge, making it less likely you'll want to have sex, especially when paired with the other symptoms.

The time leading up to menopause lasts anywhere from several months to several years, which can devastate your sex life.

Understanding vaginal rejuvenation

Vaginal rejuvenation is a treatment we offer that allows you to change your vaginal health for the better after menopause or after childbirth.

The best aspect of diVa Laser Vaginal Therapy is that it's minimally invasive, safe, and doesn't require surgery. It's a quick and efficient way to improve blood flow and promote collagen and elastin production.

During a vaginal rejuvenation treatment, you come into the office and get comfortable on a table, like you would during a routine pelvic exam. We may apply an anesthetic cream in the vaginal canal to decrease discomfort during the procedure.

We then insert the diVa Laser Vaginal Therapy into the vaginal canal, emitting radiofrequency energy. The diVa Laser Vaginal Therapy energy creates micro-injuries to the vaginal mucosa. Over time, this helps increase circulation and improves tightness in the vaginal canal.

Each treatment may take a few minutes to a half hour, and you can go about your normal activities afterward. However, you should wait at least three days before having sex.

Spicing up your sex life with treatment

As your sex life declines during menopause, you might lose hope — butdiVa Laser Vaginal Therapy is a great option. After several treatments, you can be confident in your body and get excited about jumping back in the sheets with your partner.

Although vaginal rejuvenation doesn't address emotional issues or increase libido, it enhances your sex life in other ways, including:

• Tightens the vaginal canal
• Increases vaginal sensitivity
• Improves natural lubrication
• Improves sensation
• Strengthens vaginal muscles

diVa Laser Vaginal Therapy also decreases the chance of painful intercourse due to increased moisture in the vaginal canal. It also addresses urinary leakage, which is embarrassing when you're in the moment.

After diVa Laser Vaginal Therapy, you can expect to have a more pleasurable experience during and after sex. You'll have more sensations and less discomfort, improving the overall experience for both you and your partner.
