Frequently asked questions

What is exactly is menopause?
Drop down F.A.Q. toggle button

Menopause is the natural ending of your reproductive years, officially diagnosed after 12 consecutive months without a period. It typically occurs after age 45 when your ovaries reduce estrogen production. Many women experience perimenopause first—a transitional period that can begin several years earlier with fluctuating hormones and changing symptoms.

What is genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM)?
Drop down F.A.Q. toggle button

GSM, previously called vaginal atrophy, occurs as estrogen levels decline, causing vaginal tissues to become thinner, less elastic, and more easily irritated. Unlike hot flashes, these symptoms typically worsen without treatment and can significantly impact quality of life and intimate relationships.

Are there lifestyle changes that can help manage symptoms?
Accordion toggle icon

Yes! Regular physical activity, stress-reduction techniques, maintaining a healthy weight, avoiding hot flash triggers (spicy foods, alcohol, caffeine), dressing in layers, and practicing good sleep hygiene can all help manage menopause symptoms.

How long do menopause symptoms last?
Drop down F.A.Q. toggle button

Symptom duration varies greatly between individuals. Some women experience symptoms for a few months, while others may have symptoms for several years. Hot flashes typically improve over time, but vaginal symptoms often worsen without treatment.

What if hormone therapy isn't right for me?
Accordion toggle icon

Hello Alpha offers several non-hormonal options, including prescription cream for vaginal discomfort, low-dose antidepressants that reduce hot flashes, gabapentin for hot flash management, ospemifene for painful intercourse, and lifestyle modifications to reduce symptom severity.

How does vaginal treatment work?
Accordion toggle icon

Vaginal creams deliver medication directly to vaginal tissues, helping to restore thickness and elasticity, increase natural moisture, and reduce irritation and pain during intercourse.

What types of vaginal treatment does Hello Alpha offer?
Accordion toggle icon

Hello Alpha offers Estradiol 0.1% cream, and Estradiol 0.01% + DHEA 0.75% cream, both providing targeted relief with minimal systemic absorption.

The Estradiol 0.1% cream reduces irritation, dryness and discomfort during intercourse.

The Estradiol 0.01% + DHEA 0.75% cream also offers the additional benefit of arousal stimulation.

How do I use vaginal treatment?
Accordion toggle icon

Apply at bedtime when you'll be lying down using the provided applicator for precise dosing. Treatment typically starts with daily application for 1-2 weeks, then transitions to 2-3 times weekly for maintenance. Most women notice improvement within a few weeks, with maximum benefit after about 12 weeks.
