From the age of 50, physical changes can lead to a loss of sexual desire. Solutions exist and allow to circumvent these changes.
- The menopause is physically reflected by hot flashes or even vaginal dryness which can appear two to three years later.
- Sexuality will be put aside consciously or semi-consciously because of the pain caused by vaginal dryness
- The laser offers an efficiency of 80% to treat vaginal dryness
On average, French women reach menopause at 51.3 years old. This stage often marks a turn in the sexual life of women with a drop in desire. Recovering the libido is not always easy but solutions exist. “It is the woman who can decide if she wants to want to find a sexualitybelieves Sylvain Mimoun, gynecologist and sexologist, at Why doctor. If she wants to, she will manage to find it and there are solutions to help her..”
A process of disengagement from sexual intercourse
The menopause is physically reflected by hot flashes or even vaginal dryness which can appear two to three years later. A physical characteristic that can lead to a psychological block in women. “The dryness will induce pain if the woman tries to have sexual intercourse and this pain will lead her to avoid the intercourse that she will associate with it”. develops Sylvain Mimoun. Sexuality will thus be put aside “consciously or semi-consciously“, continues the sexologist.
This “process of disengagement from sexual intercourse”, as Sylvain Mimoun calls it, can be reversed. This is based on the will of the woman to want to regain envy. “To find the desire, you have to find the pleasure”, he summarizes. To regain pleasure, pain must be avoided and therefore the problem of vaginal dryness must be treated. For this, several solutions exist. “For about 6 years, there has been the vaginal laser which makes it possible to rehydrate the vagina without taking estrogen hormone”, continues the gynecologist.
The laser, an effective solution
This solution, “which has an efficiency of 80%”, according to Sylvain Mimoun, offers a non-painful alternative, works well after only four sessions and for at least a duration of at least one year. “Some women have even become squirting women again”, says the gynecologist. It is a laser probe, similar to a round speculum, which has several holes to let the radiation through. Once introduced into the vagina, the laser heats the superficial cells to eliminate them and allow the stimulation of deeper, water-rich cells. The vagina then becomes more responsive, flexible and functional.
