Bloom

For women in their reproductive years, vaginal irritation (including BV), recurrent infections, and postpartum pelvic floor trauma are common causes of intimate pain.

Every woman needs intimate balance sometimes, and Aquafit intimate training is here to help.

Intimate wellness in your bloom.

It’s very common for women in their reproductive years to experience vaginal irritation and intimate discomfort. Common underlying causes include:

Vaginal imbalance (dysbiosis) and BV
A healthy vaginal environment is mildly acidic (pH 3.5–4.5), which naturally helps protect against overgrowth of harmful bacteria. When this pH is disrupted, it can lead to microbial imbalance called bacterial vaginosis (BV), causing irritation (itching, burning, odorous discharge) and pain during sex. BV is persistent in up to 30% of women and is especially common with low estrogen postpartum, long-term hormonal contraceptive use, after antibiotics, or with pH disruption from unprotected sex, antidepressants, and soaps. This imbalance can also lower vaginal immunity, with up to 75% of women experiencing a yeast or bacterial infection in their lifetime, and may negatively affect fertility.

Fertility support
A balanced microbial environment supports healthy cervical mucus for sperm transport and survival, helps reduce inflammation, supports implantation, and may lower risks during pregnancy.

Postpartum vaginal pain and irritation
Up to 90% of postpartum women experience vaginal pain. Common conditions include:

  • Pelvic floor trauma or overextension: Pelvic floor muscle overextension occurs in up to 30% of vaginal deliveries. Difficult or prolonged deliveries can also lead to prolapse, spasms, urgency, and incontinence.
  • Tears and scarring: Perineal tears and episiotomy can lead to scar tissue at the vaginal opening, causing tightness, discomfort, and pain during sex.
  • Breastfeeding-related dryness and imbalance: Low estrogen postpartum and during breastfeeding can cause microbial imbalance, leading to vaginal dryness, irritation, and discomfort during sex.

Endometriosis
Endometriosis can cause pelvic and vaginal pain that flares with hormone shifts during the menstrual cycle. Hormonal contraceptives used for pain management, aimed at maintaining low estrogen, may themselves contribute to dryness, irritation, and painful sex (secondary vaginismus).

Peri-menopause
In the years leading up to menopause, often in the late 40s, estrogen decline and hormonal shifts can cause irregular periods, hot flashes, sleep and mood changes, decreased libido, and vaginal dryness. Managing vaginal symptoms is an important part of intimate well-being and sexual health during this transition.
