Urogenital Atrophy

Urogenital atrophy is a condition that affects the genital and urinary systems in women, often due to a decrease in estrogen levels, particularly after menopause. This can lead to thinning and drying of the vaginal walls, decreased elasticity, and changes in the urinary tract. Women may experience symptoms like vaginal dryness, discomfort during intercourse, and increased urinary urgency or incontinence. While these changes are common, they can significantly impact quality of life. Treatment options, including topical estrogen or other therapies, can help alleviate symptoms and restore comfort.
