VIDEO: Novel and other therapies for vaginal dryness

NATIONAL HARBOR, MD. – Menopausal women who experience vaginal dryness often find the resultant pain of sexual intercourse so prohibitive that, according to Dr. JoAnne Pinkerton, often these women go months or years without intimate relations.

There are many treatment options that can benefit patients with the condition, explained Dr. Pinkerton, medical director of the Midlife Health Center at the University of Virginia, Charlottesville, but physicians aren’t always aware of what’s available.

In a video interview at annual meeting of the North American Menopause Society, Dr. Pinkerton discussed the range of therapies physicians can offer menopausal patients with vaginal dryness.
