Choose the right V-Gel

Choose the right V-gel for the right symptoms

Several different options are available to treat vaginal dryness, and depending on what causes the symptom, there will be treatment options more suitable for you. Historically, milder symptoms of vaginal dryness could be relieved by using an over-the-counter treatment that contains no hormones, such as a cream or moisturizer.

Nowadays, even more severe symptoms associated with vaginal dryness can be relieved with a hormone-free gel, namely VagiVital AktivGel. Female professors in gynecology at Karolinska University Hospital, Norrland University Hospital, and Uppsala University Hospital found that 79 percent of study participants became completely symptom-free or significantly improved after treatment with VagiVital AktivGel.

VagiVital AktivGel has been optimized for the vaginal environment in an extensive research program and gently relieves symptoms by releasing water over time in a completely unique way.

What is vaginal dryness?

The walls of the vagina are coated with a layer of moisture, which reduces friction during intercourse and keeps the vagina lubricated. These walls can thin as women age and hormone production changes.

Vaginal dryness is a common symptom for many women and is often, but not always, linked to menopause and hormonal imbalances.

Other causes of experiencing this may be:

Breastfeeding
Medications or treatments such as chemotherapy.
Various medical conditions such as diabetes or Sjögren's syndrome.
Smoking
Removal of the ovaries
Stress
High amount of exercise

The symptoms of vaginal dryness can vary and the severity also varies, but there are several different treatment options available – many of which are simpler than you might think.

Itching, burning sensation, and pain during intercourse due to vaginal dryness can be relieved.

No female body is exactly the same, which means that symptoms associated with vaginal dryness – and the degree of severity – vary between women. Some may experience itching, stinging, and burning sensations, sometimes while urinating. Others may experience pain during intercourse, find the intimate area tender, and have recurring urinary tract infections (UTIs).

Depending on what causes your dryness and what type of symptoms you have, treatments may vary. Common treatment methods are:

Clinically proven vaginal gel
Vaginal gel
Vaginal cream
Local estrogen
Vagitories
Health supplements

Use only products that are adapted to your intimate area.

The vagina and surrounding area are sensitive and should be treated with care. First and foremost, you should not use just anything in an attempt to increase lubrication. The most common way to relieve your vaginal dryness is to try a moisturizer or cream. Many different options are available over the counter without a prescription. Nowadays, there is also a clinically proven vaginal gel available over the counter, namely VagiVital AktivGel.

In a clinical study conducted by professors in gynecology at several of Sweden's university hospitals, as many as 79% of patients experienced an improvement in their most troublesome symptoms. This has led to VagiVital being classified as an active gel, as the gel's clinically proven effects do more than just moisturize. The following improvements were documented:

Reduced symptoms of dry mucous membranes (itching, irritation, pain during intercourse, and pain during urination).
Reduced symptoms of urge incontinence.
Improvement of vaginal pH and the number of cells in the surface layer of the vaginal mucosa.

Nowadays, both milder and more severe symptoms of vaginal dryness can be treated with non-hormonal options.

Does your vaginal dryness affect your lifestyle? Do you avoid certain activities or change your life in any way as a result? Consult and book an appointment with your doctor to find out what is causing the problem and get help finding suitable options.

You can also try to alleviate the problems yourself. VagiVital AktivGel contains a self-help with clinically proven relief of symptoms associated with vaginal dryness. A vaginal gel or cream that does not contain estrogen is sometimes preferable, for example during breastfeeding. Consider your medical history before choosing a treatment that contains hormones.

79% of patients in a clinical study were helped by VagiVital.

VagiVital is a non-hormonal gel produced by Swedish Peptonic Medical and has a clinically proven effect. Female researchers from Karolinska University Hospital, Norrland University Hospital, and Uppsala University Hospital found that 79 percent of patients in a clinical study experienced that VagiVital AktivGel helped with symptoms associated with vaginal dryness.

Experiencing vaginal dryness at some point in your life as a woman is not uncommon, but it is also treatable. VagiVital offers improvement results already after 30 days. Normally, a course with daily treatment for 90 days is recommended, after which you can switch to a treatment frequency as needed.
