GYn think it might be a good idea--have been working on pelvic floor therapy for a while-- had some serious vaginal atrophy post chemo/drugs... has anyone done the mona lisa laser treatment???

I'd and it's awesome drug free way. It's very pricey. Not sure if covered by ins yet. Scream cream is good too.

was it effective for you???

I did Mona Lisa. It was expensive, but worth it for me. I don't feel as dry overall. Sex is definitely better, although coconut oil is still a must. And I have one very raw spot that still hurts upon penetration, so I use a dab of lidocaine before sex. The doc said she would zap that spot one more time, in a month or so, to try to get more improvement there.

It does not bring back sex drive. Still have issues getting inthe mood. Once I'm into though, it's been pretty good.

Hello, yes. I had 1 treatment with good results . My gynecologist recommended 1-3 treatments if needed, but I haven't gone back for more. My experience was better than I thought , painless, but a bit uncomfortable. The fee for service/treatment is a bit steep .

well,gyn does not have machine yet--- I am using vagifem and doing pelvic floor therapy-- but there is an issue with the fascia-- and essentially my atrophy shrunk things down so if I had 100% of pathways- I am now at 75%..... she is not sure if Mona Lisa would even help--but she is going to look into it..... sigh.....
