The most recent breakthrough launched in the last decade for vaginal health improvement has been laser technology. This new approach comes from an emphasis on looking for ways to promote health and healing (as opposed to destroying disease). There is a demand for safe treatment for serious medical conditions that cause vaginal discomfort and pain.

Generally, our medical system has fallen short of meeting women's sexual health and wellbeing needs. The friction that occurs during intercourse can be intolerable and downright painful if a woman is struggling with sensitive tissues and decreased lubrication.

Women experiencing fibroids, adenomyosis, and other estrogen sensitive conditions (like an estrogen sensitive cancer) aren't able to utilize the benefits of estrogen therapy. Laser therapy gives these women another option to explore.

The cosmetic industry has been using lasers in various applications for a long time. While some laser therapies delivered to other areas, like the face for example, can be harsh, the only way to treat the vagina with lasers is to use a gentle approach. Keep in mind that this treatment isn't available everywhere, as it can come with certain risks for the medical professionals offering it.

We need to change the idea that a woman's vaginal wellness is purely related to sex. The truth is that vaginal health is interconnected with other health systems (the urinary system, quite closely, for instance). Check in with your healthcare professionals, especially if you're experiencing a loss of elasticity, atrophy, or other changes to your vaginal area so you can be proactive in addressing it.
