Gynomunal®

Product description

Gynomunal® vaginal gel is designed to be used in women to alleviate symptoms such as vaginal dryness, itching, burning, painful or uncomfortable intercourse, by enhancing the body natural moisture. The aforementioned symptoms are typical of atrophic vaginitis, condition due to low oestrogen level as follows:

  • During menopause  (either physiologic or due to ovariectomy, radiotherapy, or chemotherapy)
  • After childbirth or during breast-feeding
  • When using low-dosage oral contraceptives or antiestrogenic medication
  • Cigarette smoking
  • Cessation of sexual activity

The product is formulated as a liposomal composition of hyaluronic acid, hops extract and vitamin E:

Hyaluronic acid acts as vaginal moisturizer by its ability to retain and release water, allowing lubrication, protection and elasticisation of vaginal mucosa.

Hops extract and Vitamin E protect the vaginal microenvironment thanks to its preservative and antioxidant activity.

Liposomes are spherical vesicles having at least one lipid bilayer, being used as a vehicle for prolonged water release.

Intended use

Gynomunal® vaginal gel is intended to be used specifically by women to alleviate symptoms such as vaginal dryness, itching, burning, painful or uncomfortable intercourse, by enhancing the body natural moisture. The product can also be used in the perivaginal area as lubricant to facilitate sexual intercourse, to protect vulvar-vaginal area or to alleviate vulvar dryness.
