Could your menopause symptoms be helped with some time "between the sheets?" The Doctors welcome OB/GYN Dr. Thais Aliabadi, who says that vaginal sexual activity after menopause is "very important." She says it helps with:
- Stimulating blood flow to the vagina
- Keeping vaginal muscles toned
- To maintain elasticity and the length of the vagina
