What is Post menopause?
Post-menopause is the time after menopause when a woman has not experienced a period for over a year. Once you are postmenopausal, your hormone levels will remain at a constant low level.
Post menopause and health concerns
- Heart health – decline in estrogen may increase your risk for heart disease.
- Bone health – postmenopausal women are more likely to develop osteoporosis.
- Vaginal health – the vagina thrives on estrogen. When estrogen levels decline, vaginal atrophy can happen.
- Urinary system – increased episodes of incontinence, bladder and urinary tract infections
- Metabolism – lower estrogen may lower your metabolic rate.
Postmenopausal vaginal Atrophy
Vaginal atrophy is the thinning of the vaginal walls due to decreased estrogen.
This can cause:
- Lack of lubrication
- Soreness
- Tightness
- Burning
- Pain inside the vagina
- Pain during sex
How to care for yourself in Post menopause
It’s important to stay on top of your health in the postmenopausal years. The risks of osteoporosis and cardiovascular diseases rise after menopause. Make sure you are:
- Eating a balanced diet
- Exercising regularly
- Continuing to see your gynecologist
If you are experiencing symptoms of postmenopausal vaginal atrophy be sure you:
- Use a water-based vaginal moisturizer daily or as often as you need.
