Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause (GSM)
GSM is a common, underdiagnosed condition resulting from estrogen deficiency during menopause, affecting the vaginal and urinary systems. Symptoms include vaginal dryness, irritation, dyspareunia, urinary urgency, and recurrent infections. Unlike vasomotor symptoms, GSM does not resolve over time and often worsens without treatment. Management includes non-hormonal options (lubricants, moisturizers, laser therapy, red light therapy) and hormonal therapies (local estrogen, DHEA). Early education, open communication, and individualized treatment plans are essential to improving quality of life and helping women age with grace.
