When we talk about menopause, we talk about a whole transition that happens to women with aging, and realistically, one of the areas that's not that well talked about is vaginal atrophy. 

As we discuss menopause, it is important to address the full range of changes that women experience as they age. Unfortunately, one topic that often goes unmentioned is vaginal atrophy.

This is one area where we know symptoms get worse with time. Doctors often say, give it a bit of time and it will get better. Hot flashes, for example, do get better with time.
