What This Treats | TelyRx Health Guide
Intrarosa, known generically as prasterone, is a prescription vaginal insert used to treat moderate to severe pain during sexual intercourse, called dyspareunia, that results from menopause-related changes in the vaginal tissue. It works by delivering dehydroepiandrosterone, or DHEA, directly into vaginal cells, where it is converted locally into small amounts of estrogen and androgen hormones that help restore the health and elasticity of vaginal tissue. Its purpose is to relieve the pain, dryness, and discomfort associated with vulvovaginal atrophy, allowing for more comfortable intimacy and daily function.
