Vaginal Rejuvenation Vs. Female Viagra
Female sexuality is a complex matter that is built up by a large variety of factors, predominant of which are ageing and problems with the reproductive system. Orally administered drugs like Female Viagra (sildenafil) and Addyi (flibanserin) can help overcome the problem in certain subcategory of patients, but in order to be effective, they require consistent posology. More and more women resort to the help of vaginal laser surgery to help fight dyspareunia and other conditions directly linked to decrease in the quality of sexual life.
For some time now laser and radiofrequency treatments have been used to treat female intimate disorders. These are non-invasive techniques considered, such as, for example in the case of vulvo-vaginal atrophy, an alternative to surgery, hormonal or estrogen-based therapies and again to topical lubricants, vaginal moisturizers and hyaluronic acid.
Laser against vulvo-vaginal atrophy
The CO2 laser is now increasingly used in particular for the treatment of vulvo-vaginal atrophy, a disorder that many women suffer with significant percentages that hide the problem even from their gynecologist or gynecologist. A typical disorder of adulthood, characterized by an involution of the mucous membranes and urovaginal tissues and linked in particular to the progressive decrease in estrogen, the female hormones, can also arise after surgery, childbirth or oncological therapies.
Interference with the sexual sphere
The vulvo-vaginal atrophy particularly interferes with the sexual sphere causing dryness, dyspareunia, vaginal irritations with itching and burning, vessel congestion, reduced lubrication with decreased libido, poor excitement, orgasmic deficit in addition to symptoms such as nocturia, urinary urgency, dysuria, incontinence and post-coital infections. Today, in fact, more and more gynecologists are advising their patients, who confess to suffer from dryness, burning and pain during sexual intercourse, laser treatments for vulvo-vaginal atrophy to rejuvenate the genitals, thus restoring their elasticity. For example, illustrating the action of the CO2 laser, specialists speak of a “cascade of effects” such as the increase in nutrients reaching the mucosa, the improvement of turgor, the increase in hydration with a consequent reduction in itching and burning, increased vaginal transudate with decreased dryness and dyspareunia and recovery of trophism with increased cellular glycogen, recolonization of lactobacilli and decrease in pH.
The final thoughts on the problem of laser surgery vs. Female Viagra
As is seen from the above, resorting to the help of plastic surgeons has the obvious benefits of long-term effect that usually lasts throughout the lifetime. The downside of this method, apart from the obviously steep cost, is that, in the presence of other factors detrimental for female sexual desire, vaginal rejuvenation is of insignificant help. The ideal solution would be to combine surgery with on-demand oral therapy. Drugs like sildenafil and flibanserin have shown steady results in the use of women affected by sexual disorders associated with insufficient libido.
