About Dyspareunia due to menopause-associated vulvovaginal atrophy.

Dyspareunia due to menopause-associated vulvovaginal atrophy is a sexual pain disorder affecting the female reproductive system in perimenopausal and postmenopausal individuals.

It is characterized by persistent or recurrent pain, burning, or discomfort during sexual intercourse, resulting directly from the hypoestrogenic state of natural or surgical menopause.

Pathophysiologically, the decline in circulating estrogens leads to thinning and loss of elasticity in the vaginal epithelium, decreased mucosal lubrication, loss of rugae, and an elevation in vaginal pH.

These structural changes leave the vulvar and vaginal tissues fragile, dry, and prone to friction-induced irritation and microtrauma during penetration.
