The Book				Vaginal Atrophy, Dryness & Menopause By Joseph Collins, RN, ND
Menopause Type^® Questionnaire				Protocols Based On Menopause Primary Concern
				Addressing the Special Needs of Vaginal Dryness & Atrophy in Perimenopause, Menopause & Postmenopause Decreased function of estrogens can specifically result in increased vaginal dryness and atrophy which can bring about vaginal pain, itching and burning as well as painful intercourse. Decreased testosterone function may contribute to or precipitate vaginal atrophy as well as inflammation, itching and pain of the vulva. A combination of symptoms may be seen when there is decreased function of both estrogens and testosterone. Restoring optimal function of both estrogens and androgens can significantly benefit vaginal health. The following formulations may be used as indicated: Integrative Management of Endocrine Dysfunction

Decreased Estrogen Function:
When decreased estrogen function is the cause, there is often vaginal dryness – a lack of vaginal lubrication. Often, there are other signs of decreased estrogen function, such as hot flashes & night sweats. When there is vaginal dryness and lack of lubrication, choose:
		Estro-Mend^™ - his formulation restores normal structure and function of estrogen sensitive tissues. Estrogen mimetic herbs such as Dong Quai and False Unicorn Root, well known for their ability to increase vaginal lubrication (FI), work synergistically with phytoestrogens and estrogenic herbs to support the normal function of vaginal tissue. More Information on Estro-Mend^™
Decreased Testosterone Function:
There is often a mild vasomotor response and unexplained headache associated with low testosterone function. When there are other signs of low testosterone, choose:
		Testo-Gain^™, In women, decrease testosterone function is associated with increased headaches. Though the mechanism is elusive at present, it may be due to the ability of low testosterone function to precipitate vasomotor symptoms. This formulation should be considered if there are any other signs of decreased testosterone function. More Information on Testo-Gain^™
