Vaginal Estrogen Therapy.

Vaginal estrogen therapy is a treatment that involves the use of estrogen hormones to treat symptoms of vaginal atrophy, a condition that occurs when the vaginal tissues become thinner, drier, and less elastic due to reduced estrogen levels after menopause or childbirth. Vaginal estrogen therapy can be delivered in several ways, like vaginal creams, tablets, or rings. They contain low doses of estrogen that are absorbed directly into the vaginal tissues and help to relieve symptoms such as vaginal dryness, itching, burning, and pain during sex. It can also help to restore vaginal tissue health and prevent recurrent urinary tract infections.
