GSM and Vaginal Dryness Treatment

Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause (GSM) is a collection of symptoms caused by low estrogen after menopause that affect the vagina, vulva, and urinary tract. Common symptoms include vaginal dryness, burning, pain with intercourse, urinary urgency, frequency, and recurrent UTIs. It is chronic and progressive but treatable with hormonal and non-hormonal therapies.

That is why treatment often focuses on restoring vaginal tissue health, comfort, moisture, and urinary function.
