Anonymous asked: How long does it take to work
Anonymous asked: I'm experiencing dryness and itching as a result of breastfeeding, which is making intercourse uncomfortable. I dislike the cold gel lubrication options we've tried to this point. My daughter is 15 weeks old, but I'm not planning on ending our breastfeeding relationship for at least the first year - would this product be appropriate for someone in my situation?
Anonymous asked: Dear Olga, I am 58 years old and have vaginal issues with extreme dryness. I had radiation in that area 5 years ago and I think that has compounded my problem. Actually ever since that time intercouse is way too painful. My dr. wants me to try Entrace but I'm worried about the hormones. My husband heard about your product on the radio. Do you think it will help me? Everytime I do use...

Anonymous asked: Since I had my hysterectomy I have had to use a personal lubricant when I have sex due to dryness. If I use your product will my vagina be "wet" enough not to have to use the lube anymore?

Anonymous asked: I just received my first order and would like to know how often I am to insert it. I see there are 20 applications and it should be a months supply so it can't be every day. I hope this is the answer I have been looking for to end the painful intercourse.
Anonymous asked: Will there be any "leaking" after I insert the product. How is it best applied?
Anonymous asked: Is there a oder when I use this, or will my vaginal area smell the same as it once did?

MY HIGHSCHOOL REUNION (WOW)
50 Years, doesn’t that number sound like something you would relate to your parents? Well, I am involved in planning our 50th high school reunion for next year. 50 years, where did the time go. It seemed as if I blinked and I was all grown up! People are blogging back and forth; others are reacquainting themselves with lost classmates. It is amazing to see how their lives have evolved;...
Anonymous asked: Since breast cancer two years ago, I was put on Femara which takes all hormones out of my system. It results in an extremely dry vagina. I cannot use anything that has estrogen in it. I have tried esterase and vagifem, but neither have provided relief that I had hoped for. I am willing to try your product, but I really want to be sure that it is estrogen free.
IS "FIFTY SHADES OF GREY" FOR ALL AGES
I imagine many of you have heard of the new book, “Fifty Shades of Grey” by E.L. James. I got a call from my youngest daughter: Mommy, I need you to take the boys over night. I am reading this new trilogy novel and WOW. You should read it. It is sexually explicit, and is truly a character study of two young people falling in love and the complications of their lives. My older...
Anonymous asked: Olga, I have just started using your Inner Intimates product. My question is, should I be using your product along with Vagifem or Estrace. Is your product a compliment to the Vigifm or Estrace?

The Prime Menopause Blog is also giving away two samples of Inner Intimates Vaginal Renewal Complex on February 23rd! You can read the full blog post on our...

Are there secrets to making menopause work for...
There was a recent news article in news4jax.com about how 50 million women are dealing with menopause. Some believe that the use of human hormone growth will inhibit the effects of menopause by feeling more energetic and stating that it helps them sleep better without the annoying and impossible hot flashes Menopause for me was awful. I was so young (43). I had just started my business in...
AN ARTICLE, “A COUNTRY WHERE YOU ONCE LIVED” By...
I just finished reading an article in The Sun January 2012 called A Country Where You Once Lived. Ms. St. Germain has suggested that just because we are older and our sex drive is different with age and menopause, we don’t belong is the same country as we did when we were “young and ripe”. Is it true that as we age our vaginas get dryer and our sex drive lessens? Yes, but that does not mean...
Disappointed But Not Surprised
I recently applied for a booth at a health and beauty show called HBA Global. They have a new pavilion called Splash. This is for companies who are relatively new and want to expose their products to new distributions. After sending in our application we were denied because they said that our packaging was too intimidating. What does that mean? To me, it says, by using the word “vagina”...
The Anatomy of the Vagina
A recent article in Woman’s Health magazine talks about the anatomy of the vagina. “Female Anatomy: Your Ultimate Guide” BY Nicole Beland. Wow, it sounds amazing and gave me a little tingle. I truly think that our vaginas are unique.
I spoke with a woman last week. She said that she had always heard about men with erectile dysfunction, but never imagined vaginal dryness and the effect it would...
Learn Something New Every Day
I was speaking with a woman the other day. She had just heard Dr. Greene on radio and thought, wow, this product, Vaginal Renewal Complex sounds like something I could use.
This woman is not in menopause, she does not have any debilitating physical disorder, she never had cancer or had babies, but she is a cycler. She bikes all over the country and possibly competes. She is a young woman (I...

A 60th anniversary...and a first
It’s hard to believe that the Today Show is celebrating its 60th anniversary. I was only 6 years old when it went on air.
Barbara Walters is my inspiration. She paved the way for women in the work place. I To me, she was fearless.
In 1984, when I started my first business, cosmetic manufacturing, it was very hard to be taken seriously as a woman in that field. Things have changed since...
Timeless advice
When I read Ms. Brody’s article Life’s Graying Edge, about appreciating life as we age, I once again thought about Mom and Dad.
I tell my father all the time that he gave me the greatest gift a person could give: he lived long enough for me to see how magnificent he truly is. My dad was a disciplinarian when I was growing up. He came from a strong German family, where children were seen...
If I knew then what I know now...
How many times do we say, “if I had only known then what I know now”?
The New York Times Sunday Review had an article by Patricia Cohen about midlife. (http://www.nytimes.com/2012/01/08/sunday-review/get-a-midlife.html?scp=2&sq=midlife&st=cse) Somehow, at the ripe age of 66 years old, I still don’t think of myself as reaching “middle age”; however, my children do remind me that I am, in...
Is Your Vagina Weight-Training?
Every week I take a private stretch class. It helps strengthen my weak back. You would be surprised how good I feel after that hour.
One of the things that she works with me on is not only strengthening my back, but also my vagina. I lie on my back with my knees bent and contract my vaginal muscle and then lift off the floor. First, I lift my buttock very low to the ground keeping my vagina...
Don't Let Your Skin Go to the Dogs
I was out early this morning walking my sweet dog Maxie. I even put on his coat and bundled myself up. We have had a mild winter so far but, it is really getting cold out there now. With winter comes the dry skin and itchiness. Sometimes my skin feels so dry that I can’t stop itching. So the best thing to do is moisturize your skin every day. My secret is to coat your body with pure oil. I...
What every (pregnant) woman should know
Even though my mother taught me nearly everything about taking care of my body, she never told me how to take care of myself through pregnancy — and the possibility of stretch marks.
Mom had two children and never had a mark on her. I, on the other hand, had big babies. After my first child, I was left with the scars of stretch marks. I was very young and just assumed that they would go...

My Inspiration
I am one of those lucky people who have both my parents. My father is almost 97 and Mom is 91.
My mother taught me how to take pride in my body and how to keep my body looking and feeling good. She always set a good example:
I remember when I was a small child I would go off to school as Mom was turning the television on to exercise with Jack LaLane. That took place every day and for ½ hour she...
Senior Sex
I like to call it mature sex.
In the recent Huffington Post article “HOW ARE VAGINAS DOING FIFTEEN YEARS AFTER THE VAGINA MONOLOGUES” (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/samara-oshea/vagina-monologues_b_1149929.html?ref=women), writer Samara O’Shea mentions a book about sexuality for the more mature generation. I really responded to that because I often speak with women who are over 60 (some younger)...
Success Story
Ladies, our vaginas are “getter better”. I spoke with a woman the other day who has been using Vaginal Renewal Complex for 6 months. Her previous visit to her gynocologist was painful and distressing, because of the extreme vaginal dryness. She told me that after being on our program, she went back to the doctor for her check-up and the doctor told her she is CURED. Her vagina is...

'Tis the season...
I have had quite a few calls this week, because it is now vacation time. Women want to make sure they have enough Vaginal Renewal Complex to enjoy ALL aspects of their holiday.
I always hated the cold, wet, and uncomfortable sexual gels that are on the market. It really puts a damper on something that should be wonderful. What I tell my clients who have concerns about sexuality and vaginal...

My visit to see Dr. Greene
Ladies, I went to see Dr. Greene last week for my semi-yearly check up, and I am happy to report that I am in really good shape. The discomforts I experienced have all but disappeared and that includes the uncomforable itchiness and irritation that she always talks about when discussing my condition on her radio show. Not only do I use our Vaginal Renewal Complex about 4 times a week, but I also...
Never too old to exercise
Jane Fonda is one of my favorite actresses. Can you believe she is 73 years old and looks as great as she does? We are really lucky, ladies, because she has come out with two new work out videos for the “Baby Boomers” (such as myself) . She was interviewed this week on the Today show and admits that the videos she created in the 80’s and thework out program from that time is...
Our bodies are like a fine oiled machine...
I just came back from my weekly dance class. It’s a wonderful, free form dance called “Danskinetics”. It teaches us to become one with our bodies through interpretive dance, including some yoga and stretch. We dance with a group of amazing women (some of whom now use Vaginal Renewal Complex themselves) and range in age from 30 to 80.
This form of dance is becoming well known...

Beauty Secret: dry hair
I have the most difficult hair. My hair is actually frizzy and very curly. I straighten it, I color it, and I highlight it. So you can imagine how dry my hair gets. Of course I use a strong conditioner when I wash it. Then I put another leave in conditioner when I dry it. But after it is dried, I find it still needs a little more conditioning. This is actually one of my little secrets, but I...
What have you done for your vagina today?
Yes, you heard me right. How much time do we spend keeping our hair, our skin, our nails healthy?
As women, we are constantly reminded to work out to keep out muscles toned, and to moisturize and use sun block to keep our skin from wrinkling. Why isn’t anyone talking about what we need to do to keep our vaginas from drying out? I know it sounds funny, but severe vaginal dryness – from menopause,...

Women are more prone to workplace because of the many roles they play in life: as career woman, wife, mother, daughter, and friend. Women work way beyond the 9-5 shift, often having to rush home to cook dinner, help the kids with homework, and prepare the next day’s office attire for the hubby….
