VILMA, a 46-year-old woman, was admitted to the Female Ward with recurring diarrhea. She had three full-term pregnancies in the past, but after her third, she developed post-partum hemorrhage, for which she was treated. As a result, she experienced lactation failure, amenorrhea, fatigue, weight loss, weakness, and hypothyroidism symptoms.
Physical examination revealed that she is thin-built (BMI=17 kg/m2), that her pulse is regular at 86 beats per minute, and that her blood pressure is 90/50 mmHg. The pubic and axillary hair were sparse, but the external genitalia were normal.

She went through natural menopause at the age of 53—and did not take any oral estrogens—she said it was her preference not to, and that she really did not have any systemic signs/symptoms of menopause—just the vaginal dryness for the last 2 years or so.
She says that she has used OTC products without benefit—and she uses Astroglide or some type of lubricant when she is sexually active with her husband—but it is still uncomfortable because she just thinks her tissue are so dry. Ann tells you that she usually does not have any itching or discharge but has in the last few days—which she attributes to a recent round of Amoxicillin for a tooth infection. So she thinks she may need something for that also—she has not used any OTC meds for the discharge.
