Due to the total hysterectomy and treatment for breast cancer, the vaginal lining skin may become severely atrophied, which can result in vaginal dryness and painful sex.
Estrogen cream or suppository can help relieve vaginal atrophy and ease painful sex. However, hormones have side effects like cancer risk. Many breast cancer survivors are seeking a hormone-free product that is safe
NeuEve is hormone free and is safe.
We have several levels NeuEve products for women of different ages to relieve vaginal atrophy. From mild to strong they are Cream, Silk, Silver, and Gold.
In health women with normal aging, vaginal dryness and atrophy do not start until they reach menopause like 45-55 years old. They can choose an appropriate product based on their age.
However, for women with an early menopause caused by hysterectomy or cancer therapy, no matter what age they have, they need to start at the mildest level silk. They can move up a level 3-4 months after they are on Silk.
We recommend the following products for you to start:
