Sjögren's Syndrome: What is it and how can it be alleviated?
From time to time, we receive reviews about VagiVital AktivGel from women who have been helped with Sjögren's syndrome. Their stories contain both pain and suffering, but also hope and relief ❤️
WHAT IS SJÖGREN'S SYNDROME?
Sjögren's syndrome is a chronic autoimmune disease where the body's immune system attacks its own moisture-producing glands. This leads to dryness in, among other places, the eyes, mouth, and genital area. The disease is named after the Swedish doctor Henrik Sjögren who first described it in 1933.
SYMPTOMS AND DIAGNOSIS
The most common symptoms of Sjögren's syndrome are:
🌸 Dryness in the eyes (feeling of grit or sand)
🌸 Dry mouth (difficulty swallowing or speaking)
🌸 Dryness in the genital area (discomfort during intercourse)
🌸 Fatigue
🌸 Joint pain and muscle pain
The diagnosis is often made through blood tests, which show specific antibodies, as well as various tests to measure moisture production in the eyes and mouth.
CAUSES AND RESEARCH
Research on Sjögren's syndrome is ongoing to better understand the disease and develop new treatments. According to recent studies, genetic factors may play a major role, but environmental factors and hormonal changes can also contribute to triggering the disease.
An interesting study published in Journal of Autoimmunity points to a link between hormonal imbalances and the onset of Sjögren's syndrome, which may explain why the disease often appears in women during menopause.
PERSONAL STORIES
We have had several customers who have shared their personal experiences with Sjögren's syndrome and how VagiVital AktivGel has helped them. One of our customers, Maria, says:
"I have struggled with Sjögren's syndrome for several years and one of the biggest challenges has been dryness in the genital area. It affected not only my sex life but also my everyday comfort. When I started using AktivGel, I noticed a big difference. The moisturizing effect made me feel much more comfortable and confident."
