• Activity INFORMATION

  Overview

  Women are generally not too shy about asking questions in the feminine hygiene aisle. They tend to be very proactive about their health, and, given a private counseling area, they will specifically tell you what symptoms they are having. This activity is an overview of women’s most common health issues, including vaginal infections, urinary tract infections, and menstrual maladies. We will discuss the number of sexual lubricants that are available and how to select the right one, be it for a woman wanting to conceive, or a woman taking anti-estrogen therapy for breast cancer. We have a lot of excellent products in our woman’s section that, with the addition of pharmacist expertise, will be of great benefit to our female patients.
