Vaginal Loosening
in West Columbia, SC

Vaginal laxity refers to a “looseness”, or vaginal gaping, that occurs in the vagina. Many women find that this happens after vaginal childbirth, but it has also been associated with aging and menopause. Vaginal loosening can directly affect a woman’s self-esteem and positive body image as her body has gone through a dramatic change.

There are many reasons why this condition occurs, including the aging process. The loss of collagen fibers makes the skin and other tissues thinner. Of course, vaginal tissues are also affected by this. Another consequence of ageing is menopause, which is a phase where estrogen production diminishes. This hormone is related to the growth, maintenance, and repair of the vaginal tissues.
