EWING, N.J. —Church & Dwight on Tuesday introduced a hormone-free and fragrance-free Replens Moisture Restore External Comfort Gel, for soothing relief from external vaginal dryness, in menopause, post-partum and after a cancer diagnosis.
"Ladies, don't despair. Vaginal dryness can be a nuisance at any age. It's one of the most common symptoms of menopause and unfortunately, can worsen over time," stated Mary Jane Minkin, clinical professor of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Sciences at Yale University. "Luckily, there are non-hormonal products like Replens," she said. "I recommend these products to patients as first line therapies to help relieve internal and external vaginal dryness."
The same hormonal changes that cause internal vaginal dryness can also contribute to external vaginal discomfort. The outside skin surrounding the vagina can become irritated and cause discomfort during normal daily activities like walking, prolonged sitting, exercising and bike riding. Replens Moisture Restore External Comfort Gel with the HydraPro Complex, a blend of moisturizers and vitamins including Vitamin E and Pro-Vitamin B5, helps soothe and relieve irritation, discomfort and chafing from external vaginal dryness.
The Replens family of hormone-free products work together to provide a complete solution to vaginal dryness and discomfort. Replens Long-Lasting Vaginal Moisturizer relieves internal dryness for up to three days, leaving tissues hydrated by helping to replenish moisture and rejuvenating dry internal vaginal cells while Replens Moisture Restore External Comfort Gel addresses vaginal dryness on the outside skin. Replens Silky Smooth premium silicone personal lubricant supplements the body's natural lubrication when applied just before sex to ease penetration, increase slipperiness, and enhance intimacy.
