Regaining Your Feminity<br />
We all know menopause is the conclusion of menstruation and<br />
includes side effects such as hot flashes and changes in mood.<br />
But what we aren't talking about is that millions of women also<br />
experience vaginal atrophy which includes ongoing vaginal<br />
dryness, itching, burning and pain with intercourse.<br />
Susan Schreffler, found herself dealing with vaginal atrophy. She<br />
had a hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy,<br />
(removal of the uterus, fallopian tubes and ovaries) in her mid<br />
30s. The effects of this surgery caused Susan to go into early<br />
menopause. The average age for menopause is 51 years old.<br />
According to the American Academy of Family Physicians, up to<br />
40 percent of postmenopausal women have atrophic vaginitis or<br />
vaginal atrophy. With nearly 64 million post-menopausal<br />
patients, many women are suffering.<br />
“I started researching my options and came across the MonaLisa<br />
Touch treatment. What I read was intriguing and nothing else<br />
available seemed to have the same positive outcomes.”<br />
She found that Women’s Healthcare of Illinois located in Mokena<br />
performed the MonaLisa Touch treatment and booked a free<br />
consultation with Dr. Kenneth Finkelstein, gynecologist<br />
specializing in urogynecology.<br />
“During the consultation, Dr. Finkelstein answered all of my<br />
questions and made me feel comfortable. I decided to get my<br />
first treatment at my consultation. The treatment itself is<br />
pain-free, requires no downtime, has no side effects and done in<br />
just a few minutes in the office. There are three treatments done<br />
six weeks apart,” explained Schreffler.<br />
These symptoms greatly impact a woman’s quality of life,”<br />
states Dr. Finkelstein. “As someone who has taken care of women<br />
for over twenty years, I have watched countless women live with<br />
discomfort and struggle with intimacy; it’s unacceptable. Finally,<br />
we have a solution.”<br />
“I was amazed by the results. After my first treatment I felt relief.<br />
I have now completed my all three treatments and I can say for<br />
the first time in 30 years I am not suffering from vaginal atrophy.”<br />
