Overview

• Regional outlets published near-identical advisory pieces on September 20 quoting menopause expert Sinai Blumenthal.
• Blumenthal says the vagina is a muscle that benefits from training, recommending pelvic and vaginal exercises to support sexual function.
• She urges women to care for the vulva as part of addressing discomfort and reduced desire during menopause.
• The coverage links hormone-driven changes to shifts in libido, pain with sex, and strain on relationships.
• The pieces offer practical steps for male partners to be supportive rather than presenting new clinical findings.
