Information
INTRAROSA is a prescription medication used to treat women experiencing moderate to severe pain during sexual intercourse, a symptom often associated with menopause. The active ingredient in INTRAROSA is prasterone, also known as dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), which is a naturally occurring steroid in the body. This medication works by replenishing DHEA levels in the vaginal tissue, thereby helping to improve vaginal health by promoting the production of estrogen and androgens. This can lead to improved lubrication and reduced pain during sexual activity. INTRAROSA is typically administered in the form of a vaginal insert, used once daily at bedtime. It is important for patients to follow their healthcare provider's instructions when using this medication and report any side effects or concerns.
