I am unable to have sex without my skin tearing, I have tried creams, and pills none work and I Urinate with every step I take. Mini pads worked a while now it's getting worse, (58yr.old, Hysterectomy several yrs ago.) I have been told this procedure will fix these two issues. Some insurance pays for it. of course mine doesn't not.
It is 500$ per treatment and your suppose to have 3 of them six months apart.
I had to save for months to get the money together.Im getting it done in Miami Cntr. of Excellence
OBGYN..Im excited with lots of hope , will keep everyone updated.

It's not clear form your post if you finally got it down. How is it now? I am thinking of having it done at the same place.

THERMIVa is a great treatment option for vaginal dryness, orgasmic dysfunction, overactive bladder AND incontinece. It uses Radiofrequency and doesn't burn or ablate the vaginal mucosa. There is no pain, anesthesia or downtime. I recommend this option over lasers. You can have sex immediately after treatment!

Well, maybe this would be better for me because the laser certainly wasn't. Yes, but now how much does that cost and how many treatments do you need? That's pretty much what my complaints are.

Thats a great price, I pay double. I have had one so far, it was easy. Good luck I hope you are much better, when you have finished the three!

I am having the procedure January 21.... how are you feeling after your first treatment. I have had so many bladder infections that it has impacted my life. I am an active 71 year old and this is my only health issue but what a big one it is. Hopeful in California

Wait LONGER! It took at least two weeks for me to feel better. Think of someone's face when they have had laser and know that it takes longer than 3 days to look better. I have had 3 treatments. The first one helped and the second one made everything better. It took a month though with each one to enjoy no discomfort. Then I had the third one. Doc turned up the laser. Even left the room to make sure he could. What a mistake. I was back to painful sex. It's been a few months now and had to go visit the OBGYN and get a hormone cream. It has helped. Things are improving but it took months. My regular Doctor had it done and said, "You tried in 3 days??? No way two weeks maybe." So have it done but wait on the sex. Sorry. And then if things are good after 1 or 2 save your money! Go back in a year maybe for a touch up.
