'This is still very much a taboo subject'

Some of us may feel a little awkward when it comes to talking about vaginas, vulvas and anything ‘down there’. But as half the population are owners of these rather important body parts, it’s high time we got familiar with the conditions that can affect us.

According to a recent survey, 73% of women are confused about the correct term for their genitals. The vulva is the name for the external parts of the anatomy, including the labia and clitoris. And the vagina is simply the internal passage that connects the vulva to the uterus.“This amazing fun thing becomes less comfortable…you feel less sexy,” she admitted. “And it was so depressing to think that was something that I wasn't going to enjoy as much anymore.

What is vaginal atrophy? "Vaginal atrophy is when the skin of the vagina and vulva thins and becomes dry and sore," explains Piroska. "As a former midwife I was always surprised and saddened by how little women know about their vulvas. On the NHS website under vaginal dryness there actually isn’t much and one point states ‘Try to enjoy more foreplay so you feel more aroused during sex’. Like we hadn’t thought of that!"

Some women have issues as the result of traumatic child birth- the use of forceps or kiwi suction cup , a major tear or episiotomy and resulting scar tissue. Vaginal atrophy is something that can be treated and should be treated without any shame attached. This isn’t vain, this shares the same level of importance if not more so than erectile dysfunction in men.
