Patient Education

Prasterone Vaginal


Vaginal prasterone is used to treat changes in and around the vagina due to menopause ("change of life," the end of monthly menstrual periods) that can cause painful sexual intercourse. Prasterone is in a class of medications called steroids. It works by replacing hormones that are normally produced in the body.

DHEA


What is it? DHEA is a hormone that is naturally made by the body. DHEA works in the body to make other male and female sex hormones within the body. A prescription DHEA product is available to treat thinning of vaginal tissue.

People use DHEA supplements for slowing signs of aging, improving muscle strength and athletic performance, inability to become pregnant within a year of trying to conceive (infertility), and many other conditions, but there is no good scientific evidence to support these uses.
