After childbirth, women may notice that the vaginal canal and surrounding tissue has been stretched. Many women notice decreased sexual satisfaction and decreased ability to hold urine in. Similarly, menopause, hysterectomy, chemotherapy and breastfeeding can reduce estrogen levels, which may result in thinning, drying, or inflammation of the vaginal walls. For many women, this may decrease vaginal lubrication and lead to discomfort. The diVa will improve the quality of the vaginal tissue.

Child birth, pregnancy, genetics and age can all contribute to excess skin in the vaginal area. Too much excess skin can cause pain during intercourse, decrease sensation and create difficulties with personal hygiene. Labiaplasty, sometimes referred to as labia reduction, is a surgical solution that reduces the size and length of the labia so that the inner lips (labia minor) don’t protrude past the outer lips (labia majora).

Labiaplasty is most commonly performed to achieve the following results:

• Remove excess skin from the vaginal area
• Improve the shape and appearance of the labia and vagina
• Reduce pain and discomfort during intercourse
• Make personal hygiene upkeep easier

Stress incontinence is the inability to control your urge to urinate in certain circumstances. Do you pee when you jump, sneeze, cough, or run? If you do, then you likely have stress urinary incontinence. Stress urinary incontinence affects up to 70% of women after vaginal deliveries. It’s a serious and embarrassing disorder and can lead to social isolation. Any pressure placed on the abdomen and bladder can lead to the loss of urine.

diVA is effective in the treatment of stress urinary incontinence in up to 80-90% of women.
