After menopause, you’ll discover that your body just won’t have some of the advantages that estrogen provides the vagina, and this can result in painful sex. Dry and thin tissue can occur due to the changing hormones in your body, and then the friction that happens during intercourse can cause discomfort and pain. And while you might think that painful sex and menopause go hand in hand, there is something you can do. Here are four ways that you can combat painful sex after menopause if you live in Palm Beach Gardens, Lake Worth, and the surrounding areas.

#1: A Feminine Laser

If you live in Boynton Beach or the surrounding areas, the specialists at Laser Skin & Wellness can tell you about the feminine Laser Juliet® and all of the benefits it can provide. It works with your body to restore your vagina and increase moisture and flexibility. The procedure is minimally invasive and discreet, and most women only require one session to get the results that improve their sex life. You can schedule a free consultation to learn more about pricing and what to expect during the procedure.

#2: Estrogen

Some women choose to get small doses of estrogen to help reduce the symptoms of painful sex after menopause in West Palm Beach. A doctor will have to prescribe these for you, and they’ll come in easy application methods such as cream or pills. For some women, this only provides them with a small amount of relief and they’ll pair it with other methods such as the Juliet® laser.

#3: Lubricant

One of the main reasons women have painful sex after menopause is because of the lack of moisture. Invest in a lubricant that doesn’t irritate your skin so that you can use it during intercourse and add back the extra moisture that will make the experience more comfortable. Lubricant is affordable and sold at many stores. However, if you want a more permanent solution, a feminine laser will be worth looking into and will help your body produce natural moisture if you don’t want to use artificial alternatives.

#4: Four Play

Yep, that’s right! If you haven’t made time for it in the past, then you should start now to help your body produce that natural moisture that makes sex more fun and less painful. Also, having intercourse more often can get your sex organs in shape again because you’ll improve blood flow. This is an act that you should enjoy with your partner, so if you find that you are uncomfortable due to pain, then try self-pleasure to help get you aroused and to get your natural moisture levels up.
