DÜSSELDORF, Germany / WASSERBILLIG, Luxembourg – (Peri-)menopause brings hormonal changes that can affect intimate health. A decline in estrogen levels can, among other things, contribute to changes in the tissue of the vagina and vulva. Possible symptoms such as dryness, burning or irritation can become noticeable in everyday life and can also affect experiences of intimacy. As part of the Q4 campaign SELF-LOVE SEASON, pjur and Dr. med. Britta Kühlmann discuss these changes, provide a medical perspective and share knowledge on how women can consciously support their intimate health during this stage of life.
Intimate health during (peri-)menopause
Symptoms related to intimate health can occur during (peri-)menopause, but they are still often not discussed enough or are not immediately associated with hormonal causes. As part of the Meno Monday Instagram format and on the dedicated landing page drbrittaku-ehlmann.pjur.com, created specifically for the collaboration and featuring further blog articles, Dr. med. Britta Kühlmann explains which hormonal changes take place during (peri-)menopause, how they can affect intimate health and which symptoms may be associated with them. The focus is both on possible effects on everyday life and on sexuality and intimacy.
Knowledge as part of self-care
As part of the Q4 campaign SELF-LOVE SEASON, pjur puts physical wellbeing, self-care and conscious intimacy at the center. Together with experts, content is created that explores different perspectives on the body and individual needs.
“Intimate health is an important part of our wellbeing and deserves the same attention as other health topics at every stage of life. Especially during (peri-)menopause, many women experience symptoms that are still not talked about enough. With our campaign, we want to help make knowledge more accessible and encourage women to consciously recognize their bodies and their needs. The medical expertise of Dr. med. Britta Kühlmann is an important part of this for us,” says Jennifer Parry, Brand Director pjur.
