FemmePharma Is Here For You
The physical effects of breast cancer and its treatment can include changes in how your body works, looks, and feels in the short and long term. These changes can impact body image, early menopause, fertility, and lymphoedema.
The good news is that the number of cancer survivors has been increasing since 2000, largely due to improvements in screening (early detection) and the treatment of breast cancer. Five-year breast cancer survival rates are now as high as 90%.
Breast cancer and early menopause
Breast cancer treatments can affect the whole body and bring on early menopause. The hormone changes at menopause cause changes in the tissues of the vulva, vagina, and bladder. As estrogen levels drop, the membranes of the vagina get thinner and less flexible and produce less lubricating fluid.
This can cause what is known as vaginal atrophy, or vaginal dryness, which is often accompanied by pain, discomfort, and/or itching; and sexual intercourse may be uncomfortable or even painful as a result. Both chemotherapy and endocrine (hormone) therapies, such as Aridimiex, Femara, and Tamoxifen, can cause early menopause to occur.
It’s not just awkward and uncomfortable. Vaginal dryness can affect your daily functioning, your mood, your relationship with a partner, and impair your overall wellbeing. That’s why it’s important to address it.
FemmePharma has designed Mia Vita vulvar moisturizer and Mia Vita personal lubricant and vaginal moisturizer to provide relief from vaginal dryness, itching, burning, and discomfort with pharmaceutical-grade hyaluronic acid and vitamin E.
Hyaluronic acid is an ultra-effective skin care ingredient that hydrates and soothes the skin by locking in moisture. It has proven to be a powerful skin care ingredient that is safe for use on your vaginal skin. If you’ve had radiation that included the vagina, you may want to try a moisturizer that has vitamin E, which can help break down scar tissue, like Mia Vita Gel and Mia Vita personal lubricant & moisturizer
These moisturizers are proven effective and safe to use during and after cancer treatment. With regular use, they can make a big difference to your vaginal health and maintaining your overall wellness during and after cancer treatment.
