Menopause is different for every woman. You may experience changes in your usual menstruation cycle. Common symptoms include hot flashes, body aches, dry skin, vaginal dryness, loss of libido, urinary frequency and sleeping difficulties.

The skin around your vaginal opening may become drier, thinner and less elastic than before. This leads to pain and discomfort during sexual intercourse, or causing your vagina to be more prone to an infection.

If your symptoms of menopause do not affect your daily lifestyle, there is no need to consult a doctor. However, should your menopausal symptoms be affecting your quality of life, it is important to bring it up to your consulting doctor. Oral and topical creams may also be given by your doctor to manage menopausal symptoms, including vaginal dryness.

For some women, the symptoms go away by themselves. However, menopausal symptoms can also be addressed with a combination of medications and lifestyle changes, such as regular exercise or changes in your diet.

Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) may be considered for you if you are in your 40s and 50s with symptoms of menopause. However, you will need to weigh the benefits of each treatment against the risk of side effects such as blood clots and breast cancer, especially for long medication term usage. Topical creams and gels can help with menopausal symptoms such as dryness or itching of the intimate area. Esta-AV cream helps you feel confident with nature's hydration.
