Should You Be Using Red Light Therapy... On Your Vagina? A Doctor Weighs In
Briefly

As women age, their vagina may face numerous issues such as dryness, incontinence, and discomfort during intercourse, primarily due to changes from menopause, pregnancy, and childbirth. Dr. Sara Reardon, a pelvic floor therapist, discusses how these factors weaken the pelvic floor and lead to these symptoms. New treatment advancements like red light therapy are emerging, garnering attention for their potential benefits in restoring vaginal health by rejuvenating tissues and addressing issues arising from hormonal changes and physical stresses.
With menopause, you have decreased estrogen levels which can lead to vaginal dryness and decreased elasticity, causing discomfort during intercourse and other challenges.
Red light therapy represents a newer treatment approach that uses low-level lasers to help rejuvenate tissues, potentially restoring some of the lost function in vaginal health.
