Facts About Crème de la Femme

---

More than 80% of all women experience vaginal dryness and need relief.  Crème de la Femme is a 100% unscented, self-cleansing, non-hormonal vaginal lubricant that can help. 

 

Vaginal dryness is natural, but if women are not careful, it can lead to serious problems.

• Dryness happens whenever a woman’s estrogen level drops too low. Although it doesn’t matter what causes that hormone drop, doctors know that menopause is the most common cause. 
• If a woman’s body is producing enough estrogen, delicate vaginal tissue creates its own lubrication.
• This creamy moisture protects intimate tissue.  Without it, irritating dryness is inevitable.
• Sexual activity is painful for women with vaginal dryness because the friction of intercourse damages already tender tissue.  Often, intercourse is painful for partners, too.
• When vaginal tissues remain too dry, painful dryness can lead to bleeding and infection.

By age 50, virtually all women are estrogen deficient and coping with dryness.

• But only 30% of these women get information about the subject from their doctor.
• Younger women suffer, too.  By age 40, for example, more than half of all women are experiencing dryness.
• And 35% of all American women under age of 40 have a problem with dryness.  That’s 25 million women in this age group alone!

Menopause is not the only reason for vaginal dryness.

• Breastfeeding, ovarian dysfunction and hysterectomy are other reasons for estrogen deficiency and resulting dryness.
• If done regularly, intense exercise can reduce estrogen levels, and vaginal dryness will inevitably occur.
• Extreme exhaustion or emotional stress can leave women estrogen deprived, particularly if the problem persists for extended periods of time.
• Chemotherapy and some prescription drugs (including birth control pills) definitely lower estrogen and leave women vulnerable to dryness.

Crème de la Femme is an all-natural solution to vaginal dryness.

• Crème was created more than 20 years ago by Marilynn Pratt, MD, a Los Angeles physician specializing in hormone imbalance and treatment for women.
• Crème is the world's only "fluid-film" vaginal lubricant. It does not build up or dry out. For some women, a single application can moisturize tissue for up to two full days.
• Crème is formulated only with natural ingredients.  The lubricant contains mineral oil, paraffin, ceresin and petrolatum. All these ingredients are FDA monographed and registered, and approved for over-the-counter sale.
• Crème contains no dynes, alcohol or glycerin.  So it protects delicate tissue without using ingredients that can cause yeast infection or pose a health risk to women with diabetes. And by eliminating friction and the irritation that can result from it, the lubricant actually lowers a woman's risk of bladder infection.

Crème de la Femme is wonderfully easy to use!

• Apply just a bit topically after your shower or bath. This single application will offer silky smooth relief throughout the entire day
• Add a bit more before lovemaking, if you like. It will enhance the experience for you and your partner.
• Or, with a sleek applicator provided, you can use it internally. This is usually the best approach for women with more irritating dryness.
• Detailed instructions come with every 1-oz. tube.  And our staff is available by phone to answer any questions that you may have.

Leading experts in women's health recommend Crème de la Femme.

• Many physicians ask their patients to use it as an over-the-counter lubricant. Some medical offices sell the lubricant to women directly. Most doctors refer patients to a pharmacy or to us for purchasing.
• Others like it as a delivery vehicle for prescribed hormone. This makes it an integral part of many women’s physician-managed hormone replacement therapy (HRT).
• Nurse practitioners, herbalists, homeopaths and other alternative practitioners also recommend Crème de la Femme. They encourage their patients to use the lubricant because it is all-botanical and does not cause side effects.
