Vaginal Atrophy (Atrophic Vaginitis)

Vaginal atrophy is a change in the vagina that develops when there is a significant decrease in levels of the female hormone estrogen. The condition is also called atrophic vaginitis.

Estrogen, which is produced by the ovaries, plays a vital role in keeping vaginal tissues lubricated and healthy. When levels of estrogen are low, vaginal tissue becomes atrophic — thin, dry and shrunken. The vagina may become more prone to inflammation in an atrophic state. Common conditions with low estrogen levels that cause vaginal atrophy include:

  • Menopause, when normal, age-related body changes cause the ovaries to decrease their production of estrogen
  • Surgical removal of the ovaries before the age of natural menopause, which can be done at the same time as a hysterectomy (removal of the uterus)
  • Treatment with medications used to decrease estrogen levels in women who have conditions such as uterine fibroids or endometriosis
  • Premature menopause, which occurs before age 40, a younger age than is considered normal for the average woman
  • Breastfeeding

Stress Incontinence

Stress incontinence is the unintentional or uncontrollable leakage of urine. In other words, the inability to control the urge to urinate in certain circumstances.

It is a serious and embarrassing disorder, which can lead to social isolation. Stress incontinence typically occurs when certain kinds of physical movement (such as Laughing, sneezing, coughing, jumping, vigorous exercise or heavy lifting) puts pressure on your bladder. This pressure placed on the abdomen and bladder can lead to the loss of urine.

A series of (3) CO2 laser treatments (with the Phoenix CO2) may improve vaginal conditions such as painful intercourse, vaginal lubrication, itching and urination.
