Stop vaginal irritation with VAGIFEM^®

If you're experiencing menopause and have vaginal dryness, soreness, or irritation, you may have atrophic vaginitis. If you answer yes to any of these questions, you should schedule a visit with your healthcare professional and ask about the available treatment options for you.

Do you experience vaginal dryness, soreness, or irritation?
Do you have problems with urination, such as pain, frequency, or stress incontinence?
During sex, do you experience vaginal pain, irritation, discomfort, or light bleeding?

VAGIFEM^® provides clean, comfortable, and convenient relief for the symptoms of atrophic vaginitis. Only you and your healthcare professional can decide if VAGIFEM^® is right for you.

VAGIFEM^® is a local estrogen therapy designed to relieve vaginal dryness, soreness, and irritation. VAGIFEM^® exerts its effect locally in the lower urogenital tract, particularly the vagina, and has not been associated with significant side effects in other estrogen-sensitive organs or tissues of the body. Consequently, VAGIFEM^® provides relief of local symptoms of menopause only.
