Jan 17, 2026 - Present
At 69, I had to choose between sex with my husband or avoiding my sixth UTI this year.
I couldn’t have both.
The dryness was so bad that every time we had sex, I’d spend the next three days:
Burning so badly I’d cry on the toilet
Downing cranberry juice like an alcoholic
Avoiding my husband’s eyes because I could see the hurt in them
My pharmacist knew my order by heart: “Another round of antibiotics, hon?”
My gynecologist was “out of ideas.”
My husband stopped initiating because he knew what that look on my face meant.
The look that said: “I want to, but my body is going to punish me for it.”
========
My breaking point came at my granddaughter’s college graduation.
Sitting in that auditorium, surrounded by other proud parents.
I should’ve been watching her walk across that stage.
Instead, I was googling “urgent care near me” because I could feel another UTI starting.
That raw, scraping burn.
The desperate urge to pee every two minutes.
I crossed my legs. Uncrossed them. Shifted in my seat.
My husband whispered, “You okay?”
I lied and said yes.
But I wasn’t okay.
I was 68 years old, watching my granddaughter graduate magna cum laude, and all I could think about was the fire between my legs.
I missed her name being called.
I missed the moment I’d waited 22 years for.
Because my vagina had declared war on my body.
========
That night, I sat in the bathtub and cried.
Not from the UTI.
From the realization that I’d let this steal one of the most important moments of my life.
My granddaughter’s graduation.
My marriage.
My ability to feel like a woman instead of a broken body.
I looked at my husband sleeping in our bed and thought:
“Poor guys has probably given up on me completely...”
========
The next morning, I made an appointment with my sixth gynecologist.
Dr. Chen.
My friend Lauren from book club had insisted: “She’s different. She actually listens.”
I’d heard that before.
But I was desperate.
========
When Dr. Chen walked into the exam room, she didn’t open her computer.
She pulled up a chair.
Sat down.
And said: “Tell me everything.”
So I did.
I told her about:
The six UTIs this year alone
The dryness so severe that lube just sat on top like oil on water
The tearing and bleeding after sex
The four gynecologists who’d told me to “use more lube” or “try to relax”
The antibiotics that were destroying my gut
The look on my husband’s face when I’d flinch away from his touch
When I finished, I expected her to sigh and reach for her prescription pad.
Instead, she picked up a marker.
========
She drew three overlapping circles on the exam table paper.
“Your vagina isn’t broken,” she said. “It’s starving. And that’s why you keep getting UTIs.”
She tapped the paper.
“Picture your vagina as a rainforest that’s turning into a desert. Three catastrophic droughts happening at once — and each one is making your UTI problem worse.”
Drought #1: The Collagen Collapse:
“When your body stops making collagen, your vaginal walls go from thick and elastic to paper-thin.
That’s why sex causes micro-tears.
And those tears? They’re the perfect entry point for bacteria.
Every time you have sex, you’re essentially creating tiny doorways for E. coli to march straight into your bladder.”
Drought #2: The Moisture Apocalypse:
“Hyaluronic acid - the water-holding molecule in your tissues - it’s evaporating.
Your vagina can’t retain moisture anymore.
That dryness creates friction.
Friction creates inflammation.
And inflammation makes you incredibly vulnerable to bacterial infections.
You’re basically creating the perfect breeding ground for UTIs.”
Drought #3: The Bacterial Genocide:
“Your good bacteria - the Lactobacillus strains that keep your vaginal pH at 4.5 and produce hydrogen peroxide to kill bad bacteria - they’re dying off.
What’s left?
An environment where E. coli thrives.
Without your protective bacteria, every time bacteria gets pushed toward your urethra during sex, there’s nothing there to stop it.”
She circled where all three overlapped.
“This is why the UTIs keep coming back.
You’re not treating the root cause.
You’re just killing the bacteria with antibiotics - and then your devastated vaginal microbiome creates the perfect conditions for the next infection.”
========
I stared at that diagram.
For the first time in two years, someone was explaining why my body kept betraying me.
Not just saying “drink cranberry juice.”
Not just handing me another prescription.
Actually explaining the mechanism.
“So what do I do?” I asked.
========
She leaned back.
“I could give you estrogen cream. Might help with moisture, but it won’t rebuild your collagen or restore your bacterial protection.
Plus, with your family history, hormone therapy is risky.
I could keep prescribing antibiotics.
But you’ve had six rounds this year alone.
Your gut microbiome is wrecked.
Your immune system is compromised.
And you’re one more round away from developing antibiotic resistance.
Here’s what I tell my patients who actually want to stop the cycle…”
She paused.
“The women who break free from chronic UTIs do something different.
They rebuild all three systems simultaneously: the structural support, the moisture barrier, and the bacterial defense.
Not with prescriptions...
With targeted nutrition that gives your body what it needs to heal itself.”
========
She wrote on her prescription pad:
- Multi-collagen complex (must include Type V for vaginal tissue)
- Hyaluronic acid (minimum 30mg for tissue hydration)
- L. acidophilus, L. gasseri, L. fermentum (for bacterial protection)
“Find something with all three. Together. Not separately.
When your tissues are strong, moist, and protected by good bacteria, the UTIs stop.
Not because you’re killing bacteria with antibiotics.
But because your body is strong enough to prevent them in the first place.”
========
I went home and started searching.
Most supplements had one ingredient. Maybe two.
Nothing had all three.
I was about to give up when I found a Reddit thread buried deep in a women’s health forum.
The kind of thread where women use throwaway accounts and tell the truth.
Dozens of comments.
All about the same thing: Radiancy.
“Had 8 UTIs in one year. Haven’t had one in 6 months since starting this.”
“The dryness made sex impossible. Now we don’t even need lube.”
“My doctor couldn’t figure out why I kept getting infections. This fixed it in 3 weeks.”
========
I pulled up the ingredients and checked them against Dr. Chen’s list:
✓ Five types of medical-grade collagen - including Type V for vaginal tissue
✓ 30mg hyaluronic acid — the exact dose she recommended
✓ All three Lactobacillus strains - L. acidophilus, L. gasseri, L. fermentum
Holy crap.
It was all there.
Every single thing she told me to find.
In one formula.
========
Then I read the reviews.
The raw, TMI, desperate ones.
“I was getting UTIs after every time we had sex. Doctor had no answers. This changed everything.”
“Six months without a UTI. I forgot what it felt like to not be afraid of sex.”
“My marriage was falling apart because I kept rejecting my husband. Now we’re closer than we’ve been in years.”
I started crying reading them.
Because they were describing my life.
========
I’d already spent a fortune trying to fix this:
$300 on prescription creams
$400 on probiotics that did nothing
$600 on antibiotics and doctor visits
$200 on cranberry supplements, D-mannose, every “natural UTI remedy” on Amazon
$500 on specialty lubes
Over $2,000 spent.
Six UTIs.
Zero solutions.
$49 for something that could actually break the cycle?
I thought: what do I have to lose besides another $49 and another UTI?
I ordered it.
========
It arrived in a plain brown box.
Two capsules in the morning. Two at night.
I didn’t tell my husband.
I’d gotten his hopes up too many times.
Promised him “this will work” with every new treatment.
And disappointed him every single time.
========
Day 3: The constant urge to pee stopped.
I realized I’d been holding my bladder tensed for months... waiting for the burn.
It didn’t come.
Day 5: We had sex.
I held my breath afterward, waiting for the familiar sting.
Nothing.
Day 8: Still no UTI.
I kept checking. Kept waiting for the burn to start.
It never did.
Day 12: We had sex again.
Still no UTI.
I actually cried in the shower after.
Not from pain.
From disbelief that my body wasn’t punishing me.
Day 21: I felt moisture when I wiped.
Real moisture.
Not lube sitting on top.
My body was producing its own lubrication again.
Day 28: I initiated sex.
For the first time in over 20 years.
And I didn’t spend the next three days terrified of peeing.
========
Three months later, I went back to Dr. Chen.
“How many UTIs?” she asked.
“Zero,” I said.
She examined me.
“Your vaginal walls have regained thickness and elasticity.
You’re producing natural lubrication.
pH is 4.2 - perfect.
Your protective bacteria are thriving.”
She smiled.
“What did you find?”
I pulled out the Radiancy bottle.
“That’s exactly the type of solution I hoped you’d find.”
========
Six months later, I haven’t had a single UTI.
Not one.
No antibiotics.
No cranberry juice rituals.
No crying on the toilet.
No choosing between my marriage and my body.
I can have sex without fear.
I can sit through my grandson’s soccer games without planning my escape route to the bathroom.
I can go on vacation without packing antibiotics “just in case.”
I got my life back.
Not just my sex life.
My entire life.
========
Why Nobody Talks About This:
Here’s what makes me furious:
Chronic UTIs affect 20–30% of women who’ve had one UTI.
That’s MILLIONS of women.
And what’s the standard medical protocol?
More antibiotics.
More cranberry juice.
More “maybe you’re not wiping correctly.”
If this happened to men - if sex caused them painful, recurring infections - there would be national campaigns.
Research funding.
Prevention protocols.
But for women?
We get antibiotics until we develop resistance.
And then we get told to “avoid sex.”
FORGET THAT.
========
Because here's the thing.
Dr. Chen asked me specific questions in that exam room - questions that actually mattered.
Not "how's your stress?" or "are you drinking enough water?"
Real questions about what was actually happening to my body.
This 60-second quiz asks you the same ones:
How dry are you? What kind of infections keep coming back? Is there smell? Burning? Pain during sex?
Answer honestly, and it'll tell you if Radiancy's three-system approach (collagen + moisture + bacteria) is built for YOUR specific symptoms.

I’d gotten his hopes up too many times.
Promised him “this will work” with every new treatment.
And disappointed him every single time.
========
Day 3: The constant urge to pee stopped.
I realized I’d been holding my bladder tensed for months... waiting for the burn.
It didn’t come.
Day 5: We had sex.
I held my breath afterward, waiting for the familiar sting.
Nothing.
Day 8: Still no UTI.
I kept checking. Kept waiting for the burn to start.
It never did.
Day 12: We had sex again.
Still no UTI.
I actually cried in the shower after.
Not from pain.
From disbelief that my body wasn’t punishing me.
Day 21: I felt moisture when I wiped.
Real moisture.
Not lube sitting on top.
My body was producing its own lubrication again.
Day 28: I initiated sex.
For the first time in over 20 years.
And I didn’t spend the next three days terrified of peeing.
========
Three months later, I went back to Dr. Chen.
“How many UTIs?” she asked.
“Zero,” I said.
She examined me.
“Your vaginal walls have regained thickness and elasticity.
You’re producing natural lubrication.
pH is 4.2 - perfect.
Your protective bacteria are thriving.”
She smiled.
“What did you find?”
I pulled out the Radiancy bottle.
“That’s exactly the type of solution I hoped you’d find.”
========
Six months later, I haven’t had a single UTI.
Not one.
No antibiotics.
No cranberry juice rituals.
No crying on the toilet.
No choosing between my marriage and my body.
I can have sex without fear.
I can sit through my grandson’s soccer games without planning my escape route to the bathroom.
I can go on vacation without packing antibiotics “just in case.”
I got my life back.
Not just my sex life.
My entire life.
========
Why Nobody Talks About This:
Here’s what makes me furious:
Chronic UTIs affect 20–30% of women who’ve had one UTI.
That’s MILLIONS of women.
And what’s the standard medical protocol?
More antibiotics.
More cranberry juice.
More “maybe you’re not wiping correctly.”
If this happened to men - if sex caused them painful, recurring infections - there would be national campaigns.
Research funding.
Prevention protocols.
But for women?
We get antibiotics until we develop resistance.
And then we get told to “avoid sex.”
FORGET THAT.
========
Because here’s what they don’t tell you:
The UTIs aren’t the problem.
The UTIs are the symptom.
The problem is that your vaginal tissue is too dry, too thin, and too unprotected.
Fix those three things, and the UTIs stop.
Your vagina needs:
- Collagen - to rebuild thick, resilient tissue that doesn’t tear
- Hyaluronic acid - to retain moisture and eliminate friction
- Lactobacillus bacteria - to create a protective barrier against bad bacteria
Menopause destroys all three.
Radiancy replaces all three.
Not with hormones.
Not with endless antibiotics.
With the exact nutrients your body needs to protect itself.

P.S. Six months ago, I was choosing between my marriage and avoiding another UTI.
Today, I don’t have to choose.
I can have both.
You can too.
👉 Check it out here: https://thebbco.com/pages/ps-radiancy-listicle-dryness-pt
I couldn’t have both.
The dryness was so bad that every time we had sex, I’d spend the next three days:
Burning so badly I’d cry on the toilet
Downing cranberry juice like an alcoholic
Avoiding my husband’s eyes because I could see the hurt in them
My pharmacist knew my order by heart: “Another round of antibiotics, hon?”
My gynecologist was “out of ideas.”
My husband stopped initiating because he knew what that look on my face meant.
The look that said: “I want to, but my body is going to punish me for it.”
========
My breaking point came at my granddaughter’s college graduation.
Sitting in that auditorium, surrounded by other proud parents.
I should’ve been watching her walk across that stage.
Instead, I was googling “urgent care near me” because I could feel another UTI starting.
That raw, scraping burn.
The desperate urge to pee every two minutes.
I crossed my legs. Uncrossed them. Shifted in my seat.
My husband whispered, “You okay?”
I lied and said yes.
But I wasn’t okay.
I was 68 years old, watching my granddaughter graduate magna cum laude, and all I could think about was the fire between my legs.
I missed her name being called.
I missed the moment I’d waited 22 years for.
Because my vagina had declared war on my body.
========
That night, I sat in the bathtub and cried.
Not from the UTI.
From the realization that I’d let this steal one of the most important moments of my life.
My granddaughter’s graduation.
My marriage.
My ability to feel like a woman instead of a broken body.
I looked at my husband sleeping in our bed and thought:
“Poor guys has probably given up on me completely...”
========
The next morning, I made an appointment with my sixth gynecologist.
Dr. Chen.
My friend Lauren from book club had insisted: “She’s different. She actually listens.”
I’d heard that before.
But I was desperate.
========
When Dr. Chen walked into the exam room, she didn’t open her computer.
She pulled up a chair.
Sat down.
And said: “Tell me everything.”
So I did.
I told her about:
The six UTIs this year alone
The dryness so severe that lube just sat on top like oil on water
The tearing and bleeding after sex
The four gynecologists who’d told me to “use more lube” or “try to relax”
The antibiotics that were destroying my gut
The look on my husband’s face when I’d flinch away from his touch
When I finished, I expected her to sigh and reach for her prescription pad.
Instead, she picked up a marker.
========
She drew three overlapping circles on the exam table paper.
“Your vagina isn’t broken,” she said. “It’s starving. And that’s why you keep getting UTIs.”
She tapped the paper.
“Picture your vagina as a rainforest that’s turning into a desert. Three catastrophic droughts happening at once — and each one is making your UTI problem worse.”
Drought #1: The Collagen Collapse:
“When your body stops making collagen, your vaginal walls go from thick and elastic to paper-thin.
That’s why sex causes micro-tears.
And those tears? They’re the perfect entry point for bacteria.
Every time you have sex, you’re essentially creating tiny doorways for E. coli to march straight into your bladder.”
Drought #2: The Moisture Apocalypse:
“Hyaluronic acid - the water-holding molecule in your tissues - it’s evaporating.
Your vagina can’t retain moisture anymore.
That dryness creates friction.
Friction creates inflammation.
And inflammation makes you incredibly vulnerable to bacterial infections.
You’re basically creating the perfect breeding ground for UTIs.”
Drought #3: The Bacterial Genocide:
“Your good bacteria - the Lactobacillus strains that keep your vaginal pH at 4.5 and produce hydrogen peroxide to kill bad bacteria - they’re dying off.
What’s left?
An environment where E. coli thrives.
Without your protective bacteria, every time bacteria gets pushed toward your urethra during sex, there’s nothing there to stop it.”
She circled where all three overlapped.
“This is why the UTIs keep coming back.
You’re not treating the root cause.
You’re just killing the bacteria with antibiotics - and then your devastated vaginal microbiome creates the perfect conditions for the next infection.”
========
I stared at that diagram.
For the first time in two years, someone was explaining why my body kept betraying me.
Not just saying “drink cranberry juice.”
Not just handing me another prescription.
Actually explaining the mechanism.
“So what do I do?” I asked.
========
She leaned back.
“I could give you estrogen cream. Might help with moisture, but it won’t rebuild your collagen or restore your bacterial protection.
Plus, with your family history, hormone therapy is risky.
I could keep prescribing antibiotics.
But you’ve had six rounds this year alone.
Your gut microbiome is wrecked.
Your immune system is compromised.
And you’re one more round away from developing antibiotic resistance.
Here’s what I tell my patients who actually want to stop the cycle…”
She paused.
“The women who break free from chronic UTIs do something different.
They rebuild all three systems simultaneously: the structural support, the moisture barrier, and the bacterial defense.
Not with prescriptions...
With targeted nutrition that gives your body what it needs to heal itself.”
========
She wrote on her prescription pad:
- Multi-collagen complex (must include Type V for vaginal tissue)
- Hyaluronic acid (minimum 30mg for tissue hydration)
- L. acidophilus, L. gasseri, L. fermentum (for bacterial protection)
“Find something with all three. Together. Not separately.
When your tissues are strong, moist, and protected by good bacteria, the UTIs stop.
Not because you’re killing bacteria with antibiotics.
But because your body is strong enough to prevent them in the first place.”
========
I went home and started searching.
Most supplements had one ingredient. Maybe two.
Nothing had all three.
I was about to give up when I found a Reddit thread buried deep in a women’s health forum.
The kind of thread where women use throwaway accounts and tell the truth.
Dozens of comments.
All about the same thing: Radiancy.
“Had 8 UTIs in one year. Haven’t had one in 6 months since starting this.”
“The dryness made sex impossible. Now we don’t even need lube.”
“My doctor couldn’t figure out why I kept getting infections. This fixed it in 3 weeks.”
========
I pulled up the ingredients and checked them against Dr. Chen’s list:
✓ Five types of medical-grade collagen - including Type V for vaginal tissue
✓ 30mg hyaluronic acid — the exact dose she recommended
✓ All three Lactobacillus strains - L. acidophilus, L. gasseri, L. fermentum
Holy crap.
It was all there.
Every single thing she told me to find.
In one formula.
========
Then I read the reviews.
The raw, TMI, desperate ones.
“I was getting UTIs after every time we had sex. Doctor had no answers. This changed everything.”
“Six months without a UTI. I forgot what it felt like to not be afraid of sex.”
“My marriage was falling apart because I kept rejecting my husband. Now we’re closer than we’ve been in years.”
I started crying reading them.
Because they were describing my life.
========
I’d already spent a fortune trying to fix this:
$300 on prescription creams
$400 on probiotics that did nothing
$600 on antibiotics and doctor visits
$200 on cranberry supplements, D-mannose, every “natural UTI remedy” on Amazon
$500 on specialty lubes
Over $2,000 spent.
Six UTIs.
Zero solutions.
$49 for something that could actually break the cycle?
I thought: what do I have to lose besides another $49 and another UTI?
I ordered it.
========
It arrived in a plain brown box.
Two capsules in the morning. Two at night.
I didn’t tell my husband.
I’d gotten his hopes up too many times.
Promised him “this will work” with every new treatment.
And disappointed him every single time.
========

Jan 17, 2026 - Present
At 69, I had to choose between sex with my husband or avoiding my sixth UTI this year.
I couldn’t have both.
The dryness was so bad that every time we had sex, I’d spend the next three days:
Burning so badly I’d cry on the toilet
Downing cranberry juice like an alcoholic
Avoiding my husband’s eyes because I could see the hurt in them
My pharmacist knew my order by heart: “Another round of antibiotics, hon?”

“Your good bacteria - the Lactobacillus strains that keep your vaginal pH at 4.5 and produce hydrogen peroxide to kill bad bacteria - they’re dying off.
What’s left?
An environment where E. coli thrives.
Without your protective bacteria, every time bacteria gets pushed toward your urethra during sex, there’s nothing there to stop it.”
She circled where all three overlapped.
“This is why the UTIs keep coming back.
You’re not treating the root cause.
You’re just killing the bacteria with antibiotics - and then your devastated vaginal microbiome creates the perfect conditions for the next infection.”
========
I stared at that diagram.
For the first time in two years, someone was explaining why my body kept betraying me.
Not just saying “drink cranberry juice.”
Not just handing me another prescription.
Actually explaining the mechanism.
“So what do I do?” I asked.
========
She leaned back.
“I could give you estrogen cream. Might help with moisture, but it won’t rebuild your collagen or restore your bacterial protection.
Plus, with your family history, hormone therapy is risky.
I could keep prescribing antibiotics.
But you’ve had six rounds this year alone.
Your gut microbiome is wrecked.
Your immune system is compromised.
And you’re one more round away from developing antibiotic resistance.
Here’s what I tell my patients who actually want to stop the cycle…”
She paused.
“The women who break free from chronic UTIs do something different.
They rebuild all three systems simultaneously: the structural support, the moisture barrier, and the bacterial defense.
Not with prescriptions...
With targeted nutrition that gives your body what it needs to heal itself.”
========
She wrote on her prescription pad:
- Multi-collagen complex (must include Type V for vaginal tissue)
- Hyaluronic acid (minimum 30mg for tissue hydration)
- L. acidophilus, L. gasseri, L. fermentum (for bacterial protection)
“Find something with all three. Together. Not separately.
When your tissues are strong, moist, and protected by good bacteria, the UTIs stop.
Not because you’re killing bacteria with antibiotics.
But because your body is strong enough to prevent them in the first place.”
========
I went home and started searching.
Most supplements had one ingredient. Maybe two.
Nothing had all three.
I was about to give up when I found a Reddit thread buried deep in a women’s health forum.
The kind of thread where women use throwaway accounts and tell the truth.
Dozens of comments.
All about the same thing: Radiancy.
“Had 8 UTIs in one year. Haven’t had one in 6 months since starting this.”
“The dryness made sex impossible. Now we don’t even need lube.”
“My doctor couldn’t figure out why I kept getting infections. This fixed it in 3 weeks.”
========
I pulled up the ingredients and checked them against Dr. Chen’s list:
✓ Five types of medical-grade collagen - including Type V for vaginal tissue
✓ 30mg hyaluronic acid — the exact dose she recommended
✓ All three Lactobacillus strains - L. acidophilus, L. gasseri, L. fermentum
Holy crap.
It was all there.
Every single thing she told me to find.
In one formula.
========
Then I read the reviews.
The raw, TMI, desperate ones.
“I was getting UTIs after every time we had sex. Doctor had no answers. This changed everything.”
“Six months without a UTI. I forgot what it felt like to not be afraid of sex.”
“My marriage was falling apart because I kept rejecting my husband. Now we’re closer than we’ve been in years.”
I started crying reading them.
Because they were describing my life.
========
I’d already spent a fortune trying to fix this:
$300 on prescription creams
$400 on probiotics that did nothing
$600 on antibiotics and doctor visits
$200 on cranberry supplements, D-mannose, every “natural UTI remedy” on Amazon
$500 on specialty lubes
Over $2,000 spent.
Six UTIs.
Zero solutions.
$49 for something that could actually break the cycle?
I thought: what do I have to lose besides another $49 and another UTI?
I ordered it.
========
It arrived in a plain brown box.
Two capsules in the morning. Two at night.
I didn’t tell my husband.
I’d gotten his hopes up too many times.
Promised him “this will work” with every new treatment.
And disappointed him every single time.
========
Day 3: The constant urge to pee stopped.
I realized I’d been holding my bladder tensed for months... waiting for the burn.
It didn’t come.
Day 5: We had sex.
I held my breath afterward, waiting for the familiar sting.
Nothing.
Day 8: Still no UTI.
I kept checking. Kept waiting for the burn to start.
It never did.
Day 12: We had sex again.
Still no UTI.
I actually cried in the shower after.
Not from pain.
From disbelief that my body wasn’t punishing me.
Day 21: I felt moisture when I wiped.
Real moisture.
Not lube sitting on top.
My body was producing its own lubrication again.
Day 28: I initiated sex.
For the first time in over 20 years.
And I didn’t spend the next three days terrified of peeing.
========
Three months later, I went back to Dr. Chen.
“How many UTIs?” she asked.
“Zero,” I said.
She examined me.
“Your vaginal walls have regained thickness and elasticity.
You’re producing natural lubrication.
pH is 4.2 - perfect.
Your protective bacteria are thriving.”
She smiled.
“What did you find?”
I pulled out the Radiancy bottle.
“That’s exactly the type of solution I hoped you’d find.”
========
Six months later, I haven’t had a single UTI.
Not one.
No antibiotics.
No cranberry juice rituals.
No crying on the toilet.
No choosing between my marriage and my body.
I can have sex without fear.
I can sit through my grandson’s soccer games without planning my escape route to the bathroom.
I can go on vacation without packing antibiotics “just in case.”
I got my life back.
Not just my sex life.
My entire life.
========
Why Nobody Talks About This:
Here’s what makes me furious:
Chronic UTIs affect 20–30% of women who’ve had one UTI.
That’s MILLIONS of women.
And what’s the standard medical protocol?
More antibiotics.
More cranberry juice.
More “maybe you’re not wiping correctly.”
If this happened to men - if sex caused them painful, recurring infections - there would be national campaigns.
Research funding.
Prevention protocols.
But for women?
We get antibiotics until we develop resistance.

Jan 17, 2026 - Present
At 69, I had to choose between sex with my husband or avoiding my sixth UTI this year.
I couldn’t have both.
The dryness was so bad that every time we had sex, I’d spend the next three days:
Burning so badly I’d cry on the toilet
Downing cranberry juice like an alcoholic
Avoiding my husband’s eyes because I could see the hurt in them
My pharmacist knew my order by heart: “Another round of antibiotics, hon?”
My gynecologist was “out of ideas.”
My husband stopped initiating because he knew what that look on my face meant.
The look that said: “I want to, but my body is going to punish me for it.”
========
My breaking point came at my granddaughter’s college graduation.
Sitting in that auditorium, surrounded by other proud parents.
I should’ve been watching her walk across that stage.
Instead, I was googling “urgent care near me” because I could feel another UTI starting.
That raw, scraping burn.
The desperate urge to pee every two minutes.
I crossed my legs. Uncrossed them. Shifted in my seat.
My husband whispered, “You okay?”
I lied and said yes.
But I wasn’t okay.
I was 68 years old, watching my granddaughter graduate magna cum laude, and all I could think about was the fire between my legs.
I missed her name being called.
I missed the moment I’d waited 22 years for.
Because my vagina had declared war on my body.
========
That night, I sat in the bathtub and cried.
Not from the UTI.
From the realization that I’d let this steal one of the most important moments of my life.
My granddaughter’s graduation.
My marriage.
My ability to feel like a woman instead of a broken body.
I looked at my husband sleeping in our bed and thought:
“Poor guys has probably given up on me completely...”
========
The next morning, I made an appointment with my sixth gynecologist.
Dr. Chen.
My friend Lauren from book club had insisted: “She’s different. She actually listens.”
I’d heard that before.
But I was desperate.
========
When Dr. Chen walked into the exam room, she didn’t open her computer.
She pulled up a chair.
Sat down.
And said: “Tell me everything.”
So I did.
I told her about:
The six UTIs this year alone
The dryness so severe that lube just sat on top like oil on water
The tearing and bleeding after sex
The four gynecologists who’d told me to “use more lube” or “try to relax”
The antibiotics that were destroying my gut
The look on my husband’s face when I’d flinch away from his touch
When I finished, I expected her to sigh and reach for her prescription pad.
Instead, she picked up a marker.
========
She drew three overlapping circles on the exam table paper.
“Your vagina isn’t broken,” she said. “It’s starving. And that’s why you keep getting UTIs.”
She tapped the paper.
“Picture your vagina as a rainforest that’s turning into a desert. Three catastrophic droughts happening at once — and each one is making your UTI problem worse.”
Drought #1: The Collagen Collapse:
“When your body stops making collagen, your vaginal walls go from thick and elastic to paper-thin.
That’s why sex causes micro-tears.
And those tears? They’re the perfect entry point for bacteria.
Every time you have sex, you’re essentially creating tiny doorways for E. coli to march straight into your bladder.”
Drought #2: The Moisture Apocalypse:
“Hyaluronic acid - the water-holding molecule in your tissues - it’s evaporating.
Your vagina can’t retain moisture anymore.
That dryness creates friction.
Friction creates inflammation.
And inflammation makes you incredibly vulnerable to bacterial infections.
You’re basically creating the perfect breeding ground for UTIs.”
Drought #3: The Bacterial Genocide:
“Your good bacteria - the Lactobacillus strains that keep your vaginal pH at 4.5 and produce hydrogen peroxide to kill bad bacteria - they’re dying off.
What’s left?
An environment where E. coli thrives.
Without your protective bacteria, every time bacteria gets pushed toward your urethra during sex, there’s nothing there to stop it.”
She circled where all three overlapped.
“This is why the UTIs keep coming back.
You’re not treating the root cause.
You’re just killing the bacteria with antibiotics - and then your devastated vaginal microbiome creates the perfect conditions for the next infection.”

Jan 17, 2026 - Present
At 69, I had to choose between sex with my husband or avoiding my sixth UTI this year.
I couldn’t have both.
The dryness was so bad that every time we had sex, I’d spend the next three days:
Burning so badly I’d cry on the toilet
Downing cranberry juice like an alcoholic
Avoiding my husband’s eyes because I could see the hurt in them
My pharmacist knew my order by heart: “Another round of antibiotics, hon?”
My gynecologist was “out of ideas.”
My husband stopped initiating because he knew what that look on my face meant.
The look that said: “I want to, but my body is going to punish me for it.”
========
My breaking point came at my granddaughter’s college graduation.
Sitting in that auditorium, surrounded by other proud parents.
I should’ve been watching her walk across that stage.
Instead, I was googling “urgent care near me” because I could feel another UTI starting.
That raw, scraping burn.
The desperate urge to pee every two minutes.
I crossed my legs. Uncrossed them. Shifted in my seat.
My husband whispered, “You okay?”
I lied and said yes.
But I wasn’t okay.
I was 68 years old, watching my granddaughter graduate magna cum laude, and all I could think about was the fire between my legs.
I missed her name being called.
I missed the moment I’d waited 22 years for.
Because my vagina had declared war on my body.
========
That night, I sat in the bathtub and cried.
Not from the UTI.
From the realization that I’d let this steal one of the most important moments of my life.
My granddaughter’s graduation.
My marriage.
My ability to feel like a woman instead of a broken body.
I looked at my husband sleeping in our bed and thought:
“Poor guys has probably given up on me completely...”
========
The next morning, I made an appointment with my sixth gynecologist.
Dr. Chen.
My friend Lauren from book club had insisted: “She’s different. She actually listens.”
I’d heard that before.
But I was desperate.
========
When Dr. Chen walked into the exam room, she didn’t open her computer.
She pulled up a chair.
Sat down.
And said: “Tell me everything.”
So I did.
I told her about:
The six UTIs this year alone
The dryness so severe that lube just sat on top like oil on water
The tearing and bleeding after sex
The four gynecologists who’d told me to “use more lube” or “try to relax”
The antibiotics that were destroying my gut
The look on my husband’s face when I’d flinch away from his touch
When I finished, I expected her to sigh and reach for her prescription pad.
Instead, she picked up a marker.
========
She drew three overlapping circles on the exam table paper.
“Your vagina isn’t broken,” she said. “It’s starving. And that’s why you keep getting UTIs.”
She tapped the paper.
“Picture your vagina as a rainforest that’s turning into a desert. Three catastrophic droughts happening at once — and each one is making your UTI problem worse.”
Drought #1: The Collagen Collapse:
“When your body stops making collagen, your vaginal walls go from thick and elastic to paper-thin.
That’s why sex causes micro-tears.
And those tears? They’re the perfect entry point for bacteria.
Every time you have sex, you’re essentially creating tiny doorways for E. coli to march straight into your bladder.”
Drought #2: The Moisture Apocalypse:
“Hyaluronic acid - the water-holding molecule in your tissues - it’s evaporating.
Your vagina can’t retain moisture anymore.
That dryness creates friction.
Friction creates inflammation.
And inflammation makes you incredibly vulnerable to bacterial infections.
You’re basically creating the perfect breeding ground for UTIs.”
Drought #3: The Bacterial Genocide:
“Your good bacteria - the Lactobacillus strains that keep your vaginal pH at 4.5 and produce hydrogen peroxide to kill bad bacteria - they’re dying off.
What’s left?
An environment where E. coli thrives.
Without your protective bacteria, every time bacteria gets pushed toward your urethra during sex, there’s nothing there to stop it.”
She circled where all three overlapped.
“This is why the UTIs keep coming back.
You’re not treating the root cause.
You’re just killing the bacteria with antibiotics - and then your devastated vaginal microbiome creates the perfect conditions for the next infection.”
========
I stared at that diagram.
For the first time in two years, someone was explaining why my body kept betraying me.
Not just saying “drink cranberry juice.”
Not just handing me another prescription.
Actually explaining the mechanism.
“So what do I do?” I asked.
========
She leaned back.
“I could give you estrogen cream. Might help with moisture, but it won’t rebuild your collagen or restore your bacterial protection.
Plus, with your family history, hormone therapy is risky.
I could keep prescribing antibiotics.
But you’ve had six rounds this year alone.
Your gut microbiome is wrecked.
Your immune system is compromised.
And you’re one more round away from developing antibiotic resistance.
Here’s what I tell my patients who actually want to stop the cycle…”
She paused.
“The women who break free from chronic UTIs do something different.
They rebuild all three systems simultaneously: the structural support, the moisture barrier, and the bacterial defense.
Not with prescriptions...
With targeted nutrition that gives your body what it needs to heal itself.”
========
She wrote on her prescription pad:
- Multi-collagen complex (must include Type V for vaginal tissue)
- Hyaluronic acid (minimum 30mg for tissue hydration)
- L. acidophilus, L. gasseri, L. fermentum (for bacterial protection)
“Find something with all three. Together. Not separately.
When your tissues are strong, moist, and protected by good bacteria, the UTIs stop.
Not because you’re killing bacteria with antibiotics.
But because your body is strong enough to prevent them in the first place.”
========
I went home and started searching.
Most supplements had one ingredient. Maybe two.
Nothing had all three.
I was about to give up when I found a Reddit thread buried deep in a women’s health forum.
The kind of thread where women use throwaway accounts and tell the truth.
Dozens of comments.
All about the same thing: Radiancy.
“Had 8 UTIs in one year. Haven’t had one in 6 months since starting this.”
“The dryness made sex impossible. Now we don’t even need lube.”
“My doctor couldn’t figure out why I kept getting infections. This fixed it in 3 weeks.”
========
I pulled up the ingredients and checked them against Dr. Chen’s list:
✓ Five types of medical-grade collagen - including Type V for vaginal tissue
✓ 30mg hyaluronic acid — the exact dose she recommended
✓ All three Lactobacillus strains - L. acidophilus, L. gasseri, L. fermentum
Holy crap.
It was all there.
Every single thing she told me to find.
In one formula.
========
Then I read the reviews.
The raw, TMI, desperate ones.
“I was getting UTIs after every time we had sex. Doctor had no answers. This changed everything.”
“Six months without a UTI. I forgot what it felt like to not be afraid of sex.”
“My marriage was falling apart because I kept rejecting my husband. Now we’re closer than we’ve been in years.”
I started crying reading them.
Because they were describing my life.
========
I’d already spent a fortune trying to fix this:
$300 on prescription creams
$400 on probiotics that did nothing
$600 on antibiotics and doctor visits
$200 on cranberry supplements, D-mannose, every “natural UTI remedy” on Amazon
$500 on specialty lubes
Over $2,000 spent.
Six UTIs.
Zero solutions.
$49 for something that could actually break the cycle?
I thought: what do I have to lose besides another $49 and another UTI?
I ordered it.
========
It arrived in a plain brown box.
Two capsules in the morning. Two at night.
I didn’t tell my husband.
I’d gotten his hopes up too many times.
Promised him “this will work” with every new treatment.
And disappointed him every single time.
========
Day 3: The constant urge to pee stopped.
I realized I’d been holding my bladder tensed for months... waiting for the burn.
It didn’t come.
Day 5: We had sex.
I held my breath afterward, waiting for the familiar sting.
Nothing.
Day 8: Still no UTI.
I kept checking. Kept waiting for the burn to start.
It never did.
Day 12: We had sex again.
Still no UTI.
I actually cried in the shower after.
Not from pain.
From disbelief that my body wasn’t punishing me.
Day 21: I felt moisture when I wiped.
Real moisture.
Not lube sitting on top.
My body was producing its own lubrication again.
Day 28: I initiated sex.
For the first time in over 20 years.
And I didn’t spend the next three days terrified of peeing.
========
Three months later, I went back to Dr. Chen.
“How many UTIs?” she asked.
“Zero,” I said.
She examined me.
“Your vaginal walls have regained thickness and elasticity.
You’re producing natural lubrication.
pH is 4.2 - perfect.
Your protective bacteria are thriving.”
She smiled.
“What did you find?”
I pulled out the Radiancy bottle.
“That’s exactly the type of solution I hoped you’d find.”
========
Six months later, I haven’t had a single UTI.
Not one.
No antibiotics.
No cranberry juice rituals.
No crying on the toilet.
No choosing between my marriage and my body.
I can have sex without fear.
I can sit through my grandson’s soccer games without planning my escape route to the bathroom.
I can go on vacation without packing antibiotics “just in case.”
I got my life back.
Not just my sex life.
My entire life.
========
Why Nobody Talks About This:
Here’s what makes me furious:
Chronic UTIs affect 20–30% of women who’ve had one UTI.
That’s MILLIONS of women.
And what’s the standard medical protocol?
More antibiotics.
More cranberry juice.
More “maybe you’re not wiping correctly.”
If this happened to men - if sex caused them painful, recurring infections - there would be national campaigns.
Research funding.
Prevention protocols.
But for women?
We get antibiotics until we develop resistance.
And then we get told to “avoid sex.”
FORGET THAT.
========
Because here’s what they don’t tell you:
The UTIs aren’t the problem.
The UTIs are the symptom.
The problem is that your vaginal tissue is too dry, too thin, and too unprotected.
Fix those three things, and the UTIs stop.
Your vagina needs:
- Collagen - to rebuild thick, resilient tissue that doesn’t tear
- Hyaluronic acid - to retain moisture and eliminate friction
- Lactobacillus bacteria - to create a protective barrier against bad bacteria
Menopause destroys all three.
Radiancy replaces all three.
Not with hormones.
Not with endless antibiotics.
With the exact nutrients your body needs to protect itself.

Jan 17, 2026 - Present
No one mentions you also lose the hormone that controls whether your clitoris works, whether you can get wet when you're turned on, and whether sex feels like anything at all.
By 47, I'd lost half of mine.
And finally understood why my body felt broken.
========
At 35, I thought occasional dryness was annoying.
At 45?
My vagina felt like someone had replaced my natural moisture with broken glass.
Sex wasn't just uncomfortable... it was a special kind of torture that made me understand why some women just give up.
========
It was the smell after sex that hit me first.
Not the usual smell.
Something… wrong.
Like onions mixed with copper pennies.
I'd rush to the bathroom immediately after, desperate to shower.
My husband never said anything, but I knew he noticed.
How could he not?
The smell would linger for hours.
I started avoiding sex just to avoid that smell.
========
Then came the infections...
UTI in January. Yeast in February. BV in March.
My pharmacy knew me by name.
The pharmacist started giving me that sympathy look reserved for people with chronic conditions.
"Another round of antibiotics, hon?"
Another round.
Another failure.
Another month of my vagina declaring war on my body.
========
And the dryness?
One woman online described it perfectly:
"It's like my vagina is the Sahara and no amount of lube can make it an oasis."
That's exactly it.
Lube would sit on top like oil on water.
Nothing absorbed.
Nothing helped.
Just… dry.
========
My breaking point came at my daughter's college graduation.
Sitting in that auditorium, surrounded by other proud parents.
I felt the burning start.
That familiar raw, scraping sensation that meant another UTI was brewing.
I shifted in my seat.
Crossed my legs.
Uncrossed them.
My husband whispered, "You okay?"
No.
I wasn't okay.
I was 47 years old, watching my daughter graduate magna cum laude, and all I could think about was the fire between my legs.
========
The next morning, I called my sixth gynecologist...
"I can squeeze you in Thursday at 3:45."
Keep in mind, I'd already seen:
Dr. Martin ("Just use more lube")
Dr. Phillips ("Try coconut oil")
Dr. Ramirez ("It's stress-related")
Dr. Kim ("Part of natural aging")
Dr. Foster ("Have you considered antidepressants?")
But Lauren from book club had insisted:
"You HAVE to see Dr. Chen. She's different."
========
Dr. Chen didn't even look at her computer for the first ten minutes.
She just listened.
When I finished my whole pathetic story, she pulled out a marker and started drawing on the exam table paper.
"Your vagina isn't broken. It's being sabotaged by a hormone no one talks about."
She wrote one word in big letters: TESTOSTERONE
"Everyone obsesses over estrogen during menopause. But you know what they don't tell you? Women lose 50% of their testosterone by menopause. FIFTY PERCENT."
She drew what looked like a plant wilting...
"Think of testosterone like WD-40 for your vagina. It keeps everything moving, flowing, responding. Without it? Everything seizes up and starts breaking down.
You know what testosterone actually does down there?
It's like plant food for arousal — Your clitoris has more testosterone receptors than almost any other part of your body. No wonder orgasms become extinct after 45.
It controls blood flow — Without it, your tissues literally starve for oxygen. They become thin, fragile, easy to tear.
It triggers arousal lubrication — That natural wetness when you're turned on? Testosterone makes that happen. Without it, even when your mind wants sex, your body can't respond."
========
She drew three overlapping circles.
"But here's the thing — it's not just testosterone. You're losing estrogen too. Together, they create a triple disaster:
DISASTER #1: The Collagen Collapse:
Both hormones signal collagen production. Without them, your vaginal walls go from thick rubber band to wet tissue paper. That's why you tear and bleed. Testosterone specifically maintains tissue strength and elasticity.
DISASTER #2: The Moisture Apocalypse:
Testosterone controls arousal moisture - that slippery wetness when you're turned on. Estrogen controls baseline moisture and the hyaluronic acid that holds water in your tissues. Lose both? You literally cannot get wet OR stay moist. It's like your vagina forgot how to vagina.
DISASTER #3: The Bacterial Genocide:
This one's mainly estrogen's fault. When estrogen drops, your pH goes from a healthy acidic 4.5 to alkaline. Your good bacteria die off. What thrives instead? The bacteria that cause infections and that onion-in-a-gym-sock smell."
She circled where all three overlapped...
"THIS is where you live now. Your testosterone can't trigger arousal. Your estrogen can't maintain moisture or pH. Everything's falling apart at once."
========
"So give me both hormones," I begged.
She sighed.
"I could prescribe testosterone cream. But insurance won't cover it. That's $550 per pellet, out of pocket. They'll pay for men's testosterone in seven different forms, but for women? Nothing.
I could add estrogen cream. Might help with baseline moisture and pH but won't restore arousal response or rebuild collagen. Plus your family history makes it risky.
The truth is…"
She paused, choosing her words carefully...
"The women who get better are the ones who bypass the hormone replacement altogether...
They're using targeted nutrition to restore what BOTH hormones used to protect: the collagen that testosterone and estrogen maintained, the moisture systems, and the bacterial balance.
Not with prescriptions, but with the exact nutrients your tissues need."
========
"Like what? Another probiotic?"
"No, you need all three systems rebuilt simultaneously. Medical-grade collagen - especially Type V that both hormones used to stimulate. Hyaluronic acid in clinical doses to replace what estrogen maintained.
And specific probiotic strains that restore the pH that estrogen used to control."
She wrote on her prescription pad:
- Multi-collagen complex (must include Type V)
- Hyaluronic acid (30mg minimum)
- L. acidophilus, L. gasseri, L. fermentum
"Find something with all three. Together. That's how you restore what testosterone AND estrogen used to do."
========
I went home and fell down the Google rabbit hole.
Found a Reddit comment that stopped me cold:
"Without testosterone, women have osteoporosis, heart disease, zero energy, plus we can't get aroused even when we want sex desperately. Insurance STILL won't pay. But they pay for testosterone for men in 10 different ways, plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... Meanwhile I can't even get wet for my husband who I'm still crazy about."
She was right. And it broke my heart.
But then, in that same thread, dozens of women were raving about something called Radiancy.
"Felt like sandpaper even with lube. Now I actually get WET when aroused - like my body remembered how to respond again."
"The onion smell after sex? GONE in 2 weeks. pH is finally normal."
"First time I've had an orgasm in 3 years. Thought that part of me was dead."
========
I checked the ingredients against Dr. Chen's list.
Holy sh*t. It had everything:
- Five types of medical-grade collagen (including Type V)
- 30mg hyaluronic acid (exactly what she said)
- All three probiotic strains she mentioned
Plus reviews from women describing MY EXACT LIFE:
"Lost my testosterone and couldn't get aroused even watching Magic Mike" (literally me)
"Insurance won't cover hormone therapy but they'll cover my husband's ED meds" (RAGE)
"Radiancy gave me back what menopause stole — I can actually FEEL things again" (please God let this be me)
========
$49 seemed insultingly cheap for something that could restore what both hormones used to protect.
Considering I'd already spent:
$300 on prescription creams
$500 on specialty lubes
$400 on probiotics that did nothing
$200 on coconut oil and "natural" remedies
$1,600 on doctor visits
What's another $49?
It arrived in a plain brown box.
(Thank God, because explaining "vaginal restoration pills" to my teenager would've ended me)
Two capsules.
Every morning.
That's it.
========
The Transformation Timeline:
Day 3: The burning during urination stopped.
Day 5: That post-sex onion smell… gone. pH normalizing.
Day 8: I wiped after peeing and felt… slippery? Natural moisture. Holy crap.
Day 12: Had sex without lube for the first time in two years. Didn't bleed. Didn't cry. Actually FELT arousal building.
Day 15: Got randomly turned on folding laundry. Haven't felt spontaneous arousal since Obama's first term.
Day 18: Wore a thong. (Had been in granny panties since 2019)
Day 21: My husband grabbed my ass while I was cooking and I didn't flinch. I pushed back. I WANTED him.
Day 28: I initiated sex. Me. At 10:30 PM. On a Tuesday. And I came.
========
Day 35: Went back to Dr. Chen for a follow-up.
She examined me and actually smiled...
"Your vaginal walls have regained elasticity. Moisture levels are normal. pH is 4.2 — perfect.
This is what I see in women on dual hormone therapy, but you did it nutritionally. You've supported the systems those hormones once protected."
I showed her the Radiancy bottle.
She nodded. "That's exactly what I hoped you'd find. You're rebuilding all three systems naturally."
========
Three months later, I'm a different person.
No, that's wrong.
I'm ME again.
The me who could get aroused from a look.
The me who got wet without a bottle of lube.
The me who could sit through a movie without burning.
The me who didn't smell like a Subway sandwich after sex.
The me who actually WANTED sex instead of enduring it.
The me whose clitoris remembered how to work.
========
Because here's what still makes me absolutely RAGE:
Women lose 50% of their testosterone by menopause.
FIFTY PERCENT.
This hormone controls:
- Sexual arousal and response
- Vaginal blood flow and tissue health
- Clitoral sensitivity (fun fact: more testosterone receptors there than almost anywhere)
- Energy, muscle, bone density
And insurance won't cover it for women.
A testosterone pellet costs $550 out of pocket.
That's $6,600 a year just to feel human again.
Meanwhile, men get testosterone covered in:
- Injections
- Gels
- Patches
- Pellets
- Creams
- Pills
- Nasal sprays
Plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... ALL covered.
But a woman who can't get aroused because she lost her testosterone?
A woman whose vagina tears because the tissues are starving?
A woman who wants her husband but her body won't respond?
"Here's some lube, sweetie."
I'M DONE WITH THIS CRAP. Seriously.
========
Listen, I spent two years and probably $3,000 trying to fix what hormone loss destroyed:
- Prescription creams that gave me hot flashes
- Antibiotics that destroyed my gut
- Probiotics that did nothing
- Coconut oil that caused infections
- $200 "medical-grade" lube that felt like pouring Elmer's glue in my vagina
- Therapy because maybe it was "all in my head"
- Acupuncture (desperation makes you try anything)
Then I found Radiancy which costs $49.
FORTY-NINE DOLLARS.
Less than a decent bra.
Less than one co-pay to another useless doctor.
Less than 1/10th of ONE testosterone pellet.
Less than what I spend on coffee in a month.
$6,600 a year for testosterone pellets? Or $49 for Radiancy?
Even my husband's MBA brain couldn't argue with that math.
========
The science is stupidly simple:
Testosterone and estrogen used to protect three things:
- Collagen production (testosterone for strength, estrogen for thickness)
- Moisture systems (testosterone for arousal wetness, estrogen for baseline moisture)
- Bacterial balance (estrogen for pH, which keeps good bacteria thriving)
Menopause kills your hormones.
Your hormones stop protecting these systems.
Everything falls apart.
Radiancy bypasses the hormones and feeds the systems directly.
Not with synthetic hormones...
Not with chemicals....
With the exact nutrients your tissues need to rebuild.
It's not magic. It's just biochemistry.

By 47, I'd lost half of mine.
And finally understood why my body felt broken.
========
At 35, I thought occasional dryness was annoying.
At 45?
My vagina felt like someone had replaced my natural moisture with broken glass.
Sex wasn't just uncomfortable... it was a special kind of torture that made me understand why some women just give up.
========
It was the smell after sex that hit me first.
Not the usual smell.
Something… wrong.
Like onions mixed with copper pennies.
I'd rush to the bathroom immediately after, desperate to shower.
My husband never said anything, but I knew he noticed.
How could he not?
The smell would linger for hours.
I started avoiding sex just to avoid that smell.
========
Then came the infections...
UTI in January. Yeast in February. BV in March.
My pharmacy knew me by name.
The pharmacist started giving me that sympathy look reserved for people with chronic conditions.
"Another round of antibiotics, hon?"
Another round.
Another failure.
Another month of my vagina declaring war on my body.
========
And the dryness?
One woman online described it perfectly:
"It's like my vagina is the Sahara and no amount of lube can make it an oasis."
That's exactly it.
Lube would sit on top like oil on water.
Nothing absorbed.
Nothing helped.
Just… dry.
========
My breaking point came at my daughter's college graduation.
Sitting in that auditorium, surrounded by other proud parents.
I felt the burning start.
That familiar raw, scraping sensation that meant another UTI was brewing.
I shifted in my seat.
Crossed my legs.
Uncrossed them.
My husband whispered, "You okay?"
No.
I wasn't okay.
I was 47 years old, watching my daughter graduate magna cum laude, and all I could think about was the fire between my legs.
========
The next morning, I called my sixth gynecologist...
"I can squeeze you in Thursday at 3:45."
Keep in mind, I'd already seen:
Dr. Martin ("Just use more lube")
Dr. Phillips ("Try coconut oil")
Dr. Ramirez ("It's stress-related")
Dr. Kim ("Part of natural aging")
Dr. Foster ("Have you considered antidepressants?")
But Lauren from book club had insisted:
"You HAVE to see Dr. Chen. She's different."
========
Dr. Chen didn't even look at her computer for the first ten minutes.
She just listened.
When I finished my whole pathetic story, she pulled out a marker and started drawing on the exam table paper.
"Your vagina isn't broken. It's being sabotaged by a hormone no one talks about."
She wrote one word in big letters: TESTOSTERONE
"Everyone obsesses over estrogen during menopause. But you know what they don't tell you? Women lose 50% of their testosterone by menopause. FIFTY PERCENT."
She drew what looked like a plant wilting...
"Think of testosterone like WD-40 for your vagina. It keeps everything moving, flowing, responding. Without it? Everything seizes up and starts breaking down.
You know what testosterone actually does down there?
It's like plant food for arousal — Your clitoris has more testosterone receptors than almost any other part of your body. No wonder orgasms become extinct after 45.
It controls blood flow — Without it, your tissues literally starve for oxygen. They become thin, fragile, easy to tear.
It triggers arousal lubrication — That natural wetness when you're turned on? Testosterone makes that happen. Without it, even when your mind wants sex, your body can't respond."
========
She drew three overlapping circles.
"But here's the thing — it's not just testosterone. You're losing estrogen too. Together, they create a triple disaster:
DISASTER #1: The Collagen Collapse:
Both hormones signal collagen production. Without them, your vaginal walls go from thick rubber band to wet tissue paper. That's why you tear and bleed. Testosterone specifically maintains tissue strength and elasticity.
DISASTER #2: The Moisture Apocalypse:
Testosterone controls arousal moisture - that slippery wetness when you're turned on. Estrogen controls baseline moisture and the hyaluronic acid that holds water in your tissues. Lose both? You literally cannot get wet OR stay moist. It's like your vagina forgot how to vagina.
DISASTER #3: The Bacterial Genocide:
This one's mainly estrogen's fault. When estrogen drops, your pH goes from a healthy acidic 4.5 to alkaline. Your good bacteria die off. What thrives instead? The bacteria that cause infections and that onion-in-a-gym-sock smell."
She circled where all three overlapped...
"THIS is where you live now. Your testosterone can't trigger arousal. Your estrogen can't maintain moisture or pH. Everything's falling apart at once."
========
"So give me both hormones," I begged.
She sighed.
"I could prescribe testosterone cream. But insurance won't cover it. That's $550 per pellet, out of pocket. They'll pay for men's testosterone in seven different forms, but for women? Nothing.
I could add estrogen cream. Might help with baseline moisture and pH but won't restore arousal response or rebuild collagen. Plus your family history makes it risky.
The truth is…"
She paused, choosing her words carefully...
"The women who get better are the ones who bypass the hormone replacement altogether...
They're using targeted nutrition to restore what BOTH hormones used to protect: the collagen that testosterone and estrogen maintained, the moisture systems, and the bacterial balance.
Not with prescriptions, but with the exact nutrients your tissues need."
========
"Like what? Another probiotic?"
"No, you need all three systems rebuilt simultaneously. Medical-grade collagen - especially Type V that both hormones used to stimulate. Hyaluronic acid in clinical doses to replace what estrogen maintained.
And specific probiotic strains that restore the pH that estrogen used to control."
She wrote on her prescription pad:
- Multi-collagen complex (must include Type V)
- Hyaluronic acid (30mg minimum)
- L. acidophilus, L. gasseri, L. fermentum
"Find something with all three. Together. That's how you restore what testosterone AND estrogen used to do."
========
I went home and fell down the Google rabbit hole.
Found a Reddit comment that stopped me cold:
"Without testosterone, women have osteoporosis, heart disease, zero energy, plus we can't get aroused even when we want sex desperately. Insurance STILL won't pay. But they pay for testosterone for men in 10 different ways, plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... Meanwhile I can't even get wet for my husband who I'm still crazy about."
She was right. And it broke my heart.
But then, in that same thread, dozens of women were raving about something called Radiancy.
"Felt like sandpaper even with lube. Now I actually get WET when aroused - like my body remembered how to respond again."
"The onion smell after sex? GONE in 2 weeks. pH is finally normal."
"First time I've had an orgasm in 3 years. Thought that part of me was dead."
========
I checked the ingredients against Dr. Chen's list.
Holy sh*t. It had everything:
- Five types of medical-grade collagen (including Type V)
- 30mg hyaluronic acid (exactly what she said)
- All three probiotic strains she mentioned
Plus reviews from women describing MY EXACT LIFE:
"Lost my testosterone and couldn't get aroused even watching Magic Mike" (literally me)

By 47, I'd lost half of mine.
And finally understood why my body felt broken.
========
At 35, I thought occasional dryness was annoying.
At 45?
My vagina felt like someone had replaced my natural moisture with broken glass.
Sex wasn't just uncomfortable... it was a special kind of torture that made me understand why some women just give up.
========
It was the smell after sex that hit me first.
Not the usual smell.
Something… wrong.
Like onions mixed with copper pennies.
I'd rush to the bathroom immediately after, desperate to shower.
My husband never said anything, but I knew he noticed.
How could he not?
The smell would linger for hours.
I started avoiding sex just to avoid that smell.
========
Then came the infections...
UTI in January. Yeast in February. BV in March.
My pharmacy knew me by name.
The pharmacist started giving me that sympathy look reserved for people with chronic conditions.
"Another round of antibiotics, hon?"
Another round.
Another failure.
Another month of my vagina declaring war on my body.
========
And the dryness?
One woman online described it perfectly:
"It's like my vagina is the Sahara and no amount of lube can make it an oasis."
That's exactly it.
Lube would sit on top like oil on water.
Nothing absorbed.
Nothing helped.
Just… dry.
========
My breaking point came at my daughter's college graduation.
Sitting in that auditorium, surrounded by other proud parents.
I felt the burning start.
That familiar raw, scraping sensation that meant another UTI was brewing.
I shifted in my seat.
Crossed my legs.
Uncrossed them.
My husband whispered, "You okay?"
No.
I wasn't okay.
I was 47 years old, watching my daughter graduate magna cum laude, and all I could think about was the fire between my legs.
========
The next morning, I called my sixth gynecologist...
"I can squeeze you in Thursday at 3:45."
Keep in mind, I'd already seen:
Dr. Martin ("Just use more lube")
Dr. Phillips ("Try coconut oil")
Dr. Ramirez ("It's stress-related")
Dr. Kim ("Part of natural aging")
Dr. Foster ("Have you considered antidepressants?")
But Lauren from book club had insisted:
"You HAVE to see Dr. Chen. She's different."
========
Dr. Chen didn't even look at her computer for the first ten minutes.
She just listened.
When I finished my whole pathetic story, she pulled out a marker and started drawing on the exam table paper.
"Your vagina isn't broken. It's being sabotaged by a hormone no one talks about."
She wrote one word in big letters: TESTOSTERONE
"Everyone obsesses over estrogen during menopause. But you know what they don't tell you? Women lose 50% of their testosterone by menopause. FIFTY PERCENT."
She drew what looked like a plant wilting...
"Think of testosterone like WD-40 for your vagina. It keeps everything moving, flowing, responding. Without it? Everything seizes up and starts breaking down.
You know what testosterone actually does down there?
It's like plant food for arousal — Your clitoris has more testosterone receptors than almost any other part of your body. No wonder orgasms become extinct after 45.
It controls blood flow — Without it, your tissues literally starve for oxygen. They become thin, fragile, easy to tear.
It triggers arousal lubrication — That natural wetness when you're turned on? Testosterone makes that happen. Without it, even when your mind wants sex, your body can't respond."
========
She drew three overlapping circles.
"But here's the thing — it's not just testosterone. You're losing estrogen too. Together, they create a triple disaster:
DISASTER #1: The Collagen Collapse:
Both hormones signal collagen production. Without them, your vaginal walls go from thick rubber band to wet tissue paper. That's why you tear and bleed. Testosterone specifically maintains tissue strength and elasticity.
DISASTER #2: The Moisture Apocalypse:
Testosterone controls arousal moisture - that slippery wetness when you're turned on. Estrogen controls baseline moisture and the hyaluronic acid that holds water in your tissues. Lose both? You literally cannot get wet OR stay moist. It's like your vagina forgot how to vagina.
DISASTER #3: The Bacterial Genocide:
This one's mainly estrogen's fault. When estrogen drops, your pH goes from a healthy acidic 4.5 to alkaline. Your good bacteria die off. What thrives instead? The bacteria that cause infections and that onion-in-a-gym-sock smell."
She circled where all three overlapped...
"THIS is where you live now. Your testosterone can't trigger arousal. Your estrogen can't maintain moisture or pH. Everything's falling apart at once."
========
"So give me both hormones," I begged.
She sighed.
"I could prescribe testosterone cream. But insurance won't cover it. That's $550 per pellet, out of pocket. They'll pay for men's testosterone in seven different forms, but for women? Nothing.
I could add estrogen cream. Might help with baseline moisture and pH but won't restore arousal response or rebuild collagen. Plus your family history makes it risky.
The truth is…"
She paused, choosing her words carefully...
"The women who get better are the ones who bypass the hormone replacement altogether...
They're using targeted nutrition to restore what BOTH hormones used to protect: the collagen that testosterone and estrogen maintained, the moisture systems, and the bacterial balance.
Not with prescriptions, but with the exact nutrients your tissues need."
========
"Like what? Another probiotic?"
"No, you need all three systems rebuilt simultaneously. Medical-grade collagen - especially Type V that both hormones used to stimulate. Hyaluronic acid in clinical doses to replace what estrogen maintained.
And specific probiotic strains that restore the pH that estrogen used to control."
She wrote on her prescription pad:
- Multi-collagen complex (must include Type V)
- Hyaluronic acid (30mg minimum)
- L. acidophilus, L. gasseri, L. fermentum
"Find something with all three. Together. That's how you restore what testosterone AND estrogen used to do."
========
I went home and fell down the Google rabbit hole.
Found a Reddit comment that stopped me cold:
"Without testosterone, women have osteoporosis, heart disease, zero energy, plus we can't get aroused even when we want sex desperately. Insurance STILL won't pay. But they pay for testosterone for men in 10 different ways, plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... Meanwhile I can't even get wet for my husband who I'm still crazy about."
She was right. And it broke my heart.
But then, in that same thread, dozens of women were raving about something called Radiancy.
"Felt like sandpaper even with lube. Now I actually get WET when aroused - like my body remembered how to respond again."
"The onion smell after sex? GONE in 2 weeks. pH is finally normal."
"First time I've had an orgasm in 3 years. Thought that part of me was dead."
========
I checked the ingredients against Dr. Chen's list.
Holy sh*t. It had everything:
- Five types of medical-grade collagen (including Type V)
- 30mg hyaluronic acid (exactly what she said)
- All three probiotic strains she mentioned
Plus reviews from women describing MY EXACT LIFE:
"Lost my testosterone and couldn't get aroused even watching Magic Mike" (literally me)
"Insurance won't cover hormone therapy but they'll cover my husband's ED meds" (RAGE)
"Radiancy gave me back what menopause stole — I can actually FEEL things again" (please God let this be me)
========
$49 seemed insultingly cheap for something that could restore what both hormones used to protect.
Considering I'd already spent:
$300 on prescription creams
$500 on specialty lubes
$400 on probiotics that did nothing
$200 on coconut oil and "natural" remedies
$1,600 on doctor visits
What's another $49?
It arrived in a plain brown box.
(Thank God, because explaining "vaginal restoration pills" to my teenager would've ended me)
Two capsules.
Every morning.
That's it.
========
The Transformation Timeline:
Day 3: The burning during urination stopped.
Day 5: That post-sex onion smell… gone. pH normalizing.
Day 8: I wiped after peeing and felt… slippery? Natural moisture. Holy crap.
Day 12: Had sex without lube for the first time in two years. Didn't bleed. Didn't cry. Actually FELT arousal building.
Day 15: Got randomly turned on folding laundry. Haven't felt spontaneous arousal since Obama's first term.
Day 18: Wore a thong. (Had been in granny panties since 2019)
Day 21: My husband grabbed my ass while I was cooking and I didn't flinch. I pushed back. I WANTED him.
Day 28: I initiated sex. Me. At 10:30 PM. On a Tuesday. And I came.
========
Day 35: Went back to Dr. Chen for a follow-up.
She examined me and actually smiled...
"Your vaginal walls have regained elasticity. Moisture levels are normal. pH is 4.2 — perfect.
This is what I see in women on dual hormone therapy, but you did it nutritionally. You've supported the systems those hormones once protected."
I showed her the Radiancy bottle.
She nodded. "That's exactly what I hoped you'd find. You're rebuilding all three systems naturally."
========
Three months later, I'm a different person.
No, that's wrong.
I'm ME again.
The me who could get aroused from a look.
The me who got wet without a bottle of lube.
The me who could sit through a movie without burning.
The me who didn't smell like a Subway sandwich after sex.
The me who actually WANTED sex instead of enduring it.
The me whose clitoris remembered how to work.
========
Because here's what still makes me absolutely RAGE:
Women lose 50% of their testosterone by menopause.
FIFTY PERCENT.
This hormone controls:
- Sexual arousal and response
- Vaginal blood flow and tissue health
- Clitoral sensitivity (fun fact: more testosterone receptors there than almost anywhere)
- Energy, muscle, bone density
And insurance won't cover it for women.
A testosterone pellet costs $550 out of pocket.
That's $6,600 a year just to feel human again.
Meanwhile, men get testosterone covered in:
- Injections
- Gels
- Patches
- Pellets
- Creams
- Pills
- Nasal sprays
Plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... ALL covered.
But a woman who can't get aroused because she lost her testosterone?
A woman whose vagina tears because the tissues are starving?
A woman who wants her husband but her body won't respond?
"Here's some lube, sweetie."
I'M DONE WITH THIS CRAP. Seriously.
========
Listen, I spent two years and probably $3,000 trying to fix what hormone loss destroyed:
- Prescription creams that gave me hot flashes
- Antibiotics that destroyed my gut
- Probiotics that did nothing
- Coconut oil that caused infections
- $200 "medical-grade" lube that felt like pouring Elmer's glue in my vagina
- Therapy because maybe it was "all in my head"
- Acupuncture (desperation makes you try anything)
Then I found Radiancy which costs $49.
FORTY-NINE DOLLARS.
Less than a decent bra.
Less than one co-pay to another useless doctor.
Less than 1/10th of ONE testosterone pellet.
Less than what I spend on coffee in a month.
$6,600 a year for testosterone pellets? Or $49 for Radiancy?
Even my husband's MBA brain couldn't argue with that math.
========
The science is stupidly simple:
Testosterone and estrogen used to protect three things:
- Collagen production (testosterone for strength, estrogen for thickness)
- Moisture systems (testosterone for arousal wetness, estrogen for baseline moisture)
- Bacterial balance (estrogen for pH, which keeps good bacteria thriving)
Menopause kills your hormones.
Your hormones stop protecting these systems.
Everything falls apart.
Radiancy bypasses the hormones and feeds the systems directly.
Not with synthetic hormones...
Not with chemicals....
With the exact nutrients your tissues need to rebuild.
It's not magic. It's just biochemistry.

Jan 17, 2026 - Present
I'd seen five doctors for the dryness, the smell after sex, and zero desire.
Every single one said "try more foreplay."
Then Dr. Chen picked up a marker and drew something on the exam table paper.
"This," she said, "is the hormone nobody talks about.
And the one all women lose 50% of by 45.

"I could prescribe testosterone cream. But insurance won't cover it. That's $550 per pellet, out of pocket. They'll pay for men's testosterone in seven different forms, but for women? Nothing.
I could add estrogen cream. Might help with baseline moisture and pH but won't restore arousal response or rebuild collagen. Plus your family history makes it risky.
The truth is…"
She paused, choosing her words carefully...
"The women who get better are the ones who bypass the hormone replacement altogether...
They're using targeted nutrition to restore what BOTH hormones used to protect: the collagen that testosterone and estrogen maintained, the moisture systems, and the bacterial balance.
Not with prescriptions, but with the exact nutrients your tissues need."
========
"Like what? Another probiotic?"
"No, you need all three systems rebuilt simultaneously. Medical-grade collagen - especially Type V that both hormones used to stimulate. Hyaluronic acid in clinical doses to replace what estrogen maintained.
And specific probiotic strains that restore the pH that estrogen used to control."
She wrote on her prescription pad:
- Multi-collagen complex (must include Type V)
- Hyaluronic acid (30mg minimum)
- L. acidophilus, L. gasseri, L. fermentum
"Find something with all three. Together. That's how you restore what testosterone AND estrogen used to do."
========
I went home and fell down the Google rabbit hole.
Found a Reddit comment that stopped me cold:
"Without testosterone, women have osteoporosis, heart disease, zero energy, plus we can't get aroused even when we want sex desperately. Insurance STILL won't pay. But they pay for testosterone for men in 10 different ways, plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... Meanwhile I can't even get wet for my husband who I'm still crazy about."
She was right. And it broke my heart.
But then, in that same thread, dozens of women were raving about something called Radiancy.
"Felt like sandpaper even with lube. Now I actually get WET when aroused - like my body remembered how to respond again."
"The onion smell after sex? GONE in 2 weeks. pH is finally normal."
"First time I've had an orgasm in 3 years. Thought that part of me was dead."
========
I checked the ingredients against Dr. Chen's list.
Holy sh*t. It had everything:
- Five types of medical-grade collagen (including Type V)
- 30mg hyaluronic acid (exactly what she said)
- All three probiotic strains she mentioned
Plus reviews from women describing MY EXACT LIFE:
"Lost my testosterone and couldn't get aroused even watching Magic Mike" (literally me)
"Insurance won't cover hormone therapy but they'll cover my husband's ED meds" (RAGE)
"Radiancy gave me back what menopause stole — I can actually FEEL things again" (please God let this be me)
========
$49 seemed insultingly cheap for something that could restore what both hormones used to protect.
Considering I'd already spent:
$300 on prescription creams
$500 on specialty lubes
$400 on probiotics that did nothing
$200 on coconut oil and "natural" remedies
$1,600 on doctor visits
What's another $49?
It arrived in a plain brown box.
(Thank God, because explaining "vaginal restoration pills" to my teenager would've ended me)
Two capsules.
Every morning.
That's it.
========
The Transformation Timeline:
Day 3: The burning during urination stopped.
Day 5: That post-sex onion smell… gone. pH normalizing.
Day 8: I wiped after peeing and felt… slippery? Natural moisture. Holy crap.
Day 12: Had sex without lube for the first time in two years. Didn't bleed. Didn't cry. Actually FELT arousal building.
Day 15: Got randomly turned on folding laundry. Haven't felt spontaneous arousal since Obama's first term.
Day 18: Wore a thong. (Had been in granny panties since 2019)
Day 21: My husband grabbed my ass while I was cooking and I didn't flinch. I pushed back. I WANTED him.
Day 28: I initiated sex. Me. At 10:30 PM. On a Tuesday. And I came.
========
Day 35: Went back to Dr. Chen for a follow-up.
She examined me and actually smiled...
"Your vaginal walls have regained elasticity. Moisture levels are normal. pH is 4.2 — perfect.
This is what I see in women on dual hormone therapy, but you did it nutritionally. You've supported the systems those hormones once protected."
I showed her the Radiancy bottle.
She nodded. "That's exactly what I hoped you'd find. You're rebuilding all three systems naturally."
========
Three months later, I'm a different person.
No, that's wrong.
I'm ME again.
The me who could get aroused from a look.
The me who got wet without a bottle of lube.
The me who could sit through a movie without burning.
The me who didn't smell like a Subway sandwich after sex.
The me who actually WANTED sex instead of enduring it.
The me whose clitoris remembered how to work.
========
Because here's what still makes me absolutely RAGE:
Women lose 50% of their testosterone by menopause.
FIFTY PERCENT.
This hormone controls:
- Sexual arousal and response
- Vaginal blood flow and tissue health
- Clitoral sensitivity (fun fact: more testosterone receptors there than almost anywhere)
- Energy, muscle, bone density
And insurance won't cover it for women.
A testosterone pellet costs $550 out of pocket.
That's $6,600 a year just to feel human again.
Meanwhile, men get testosterone covered in:
- Injections
- Gels
- Patches
- Pellets
- Creams
- Pills
- Nasal sprays
Plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... ALL covered.
But a woman who can't get aroused because she lost her testosterone?
A woman whose vagina tears because the tissues are starving?
A woman who wants her husband but her body won't respond?
"Here's some lube, sweetie."
I'M DONE WITH THIS CRAP. Seriously.
========
Listen, I spent two years and probably $3,000 trying to fix what hormone loss destroyed:
- Prescription creams that gave me hot flashes
- Antibiotics that destroyed my gut
- Probiotics that did nothing
- Coconut oil that caused infections
- $200 "medical-grade" lube that felt like pouring Elmer's glue in my vagina
- Therapy because maybe it was "all in my head"
- Acupuncture (desperation makes you try anything)
Then I found Radiancy which costs $49.
FORTY-NINE DOLLARS.
Less than a decent bra.
Less than one co-pay to another useless doctor.
Less than 1/10th of ONE testosterone pellet.
Less than what I spend on coffee in a month.
$6,600 a year for testosterone pellets? Or $49 for Radiancy?
Even my husband's MBA brain couldn't argue with that math.
========
The science is stupidly simple:
Testosterone and estrogen used to protect three things:
- Collagen production (testosterone for strength, estrogen for thickness)
- Moisture systems (testosterone for arousal wetness, estrogen for baseline moisture)
- Bacterial balance (estrogen for pH, which keeps good bacteria thriving)
Menopause kills your hormones.
Your hormones stop protecting these systems.
Everything falls apart.
Radiancy bypasses the hormones and feeds the systems directly.
Not with synthetic hormones...
Not with chemicals....
With the exact nutrients your tissues need to rebuild.
It's not magic. It's just biochemistry.

Jan 17, 2026 - Present
No one mentions you also lose the hormone that controls whether your clitoris works, whether you can get wet when you're turned on, and whether sex feels like anything at all.
By 47, I'd lost half of mine.
And finally understood why my body felt broken.
========
At 35, I thought occasional dryness was annoying.
At 45?
My vagina felt like someone had replaced my natural moisture with broken glass.
Sex wasn't just uncomfortable... it was a special kind of torture that made me understand why some women just give up.
========
It was the smell after sex that hit me first.
Not the usual smell.
Something… wrong.
Like onions mixed with copper pennies.
I'd rush to the bathroom immediately after, desperate to shower.
My husband never said anything, but I knew he noticed.
How could he not?
The smell would linger for hours.
I started avoiding sex just to avoid that smell.
========
Then came the infections...
UTI in January. Yeast in February. BV in March.
My pharmacy knew me by name.
The pharmacist started giving me that sympathy look reserved for people with chronic conditions.
"Another round of antibiotics, hon?"
Another round.
Another failure.
Another month of my vagina declaring war on my body.
========
And the dryness?
One woman online described it perfectly:
"It's like my vagina is the Sahara and no amount of lube can make it an oasis."
That's exactly it.
Lube would sit on top like oil on water.
Nothing absorbed.
Nothing helped.
Just… dry.
========
My breaking point came at my daughter's college graduation.
Sitting in that auditorium, surrounded by other proud parents.
I felt the burning start.
That familiar raw, scraping sensation that meant another UTI was brewing.
I shifted in my seat.
Crossed my legs.
Uncrossed them.
My husband whispered, "You okay?"
No.
I wasn't okay.
I was 47 years old, watching my daughter graduate magna cum laude, and all I could think about was the fire between my legs.
========
The next morning, I called my sixth gynecologist...
"I can squeeze you in Thursday at 3:45."
Keep in mind, I'd already seen:
Dr. Martin ("Just use more lube")
Dr. Phillips ("Try coconut oil")
Dr. Ramirez ("It's stress-related")
Dr. Kim ("Part of natural aging")
Dr. Foster ("Have you considered antidepressants?")
But Lauren from book club had insisted:
"You HAVE to see Dr. Chen. She's different."
========
Dr. Chen didn't even look at her computer for the first ten minutes.
She just listened.
When I finished my whole pathetic story, she pulled out a marker and started drawing on the exam table paper.
"Your vagina isn't broken. It's being sabotaged by a hormone no one talks about."
She wrote one word in big letters: TESTOSTERONE
"Everyone obsesses over estrogen during menopause. But you know what they don't tell you? Women lose 50% of their testosterone by menopause. FIFTY PERCENT."
She drew what looked like a plant wilting...
"Think of testosterone like WD-40 for your vagina. It keeps everything moving, flowing, responding. Without it? Everything seizes up and starts breaking down.
You know what testosterone actually does down there?
It's like plant food for arousal — Your clitoris has more testosterone receptors than almost any other part of your body. No wonder orgasms become extinct after 45.
It controls blood flow — Without it, your tissues literally starve for oxygen. They become thin, fragile, easy to tear.
It triggers arousal lubrication — That natural wetness when you're turned on? Testosterone makes that happen. Without it, even when your mind wants sex, your body can't respond."
========
She drew three overlapping circles.
"But here's the thing — it's not just testosterone. You're losing estrogen too. Together, they create a triple disaster:
DISASTER #1: The Collagen Collapse:
Both hormones signal collagen production. Without them, your vaginal walls go from thick rubber band to wet tissue paper. That's why you tear and bleed. Testosterone specifically maintains tissue strength and elasticity.
DISASTER #2: The Moisture Apocalypse:
Testosterone controls arousal moisture - that slippery wetness when you're turned on. Estrogen controls baseline moisture and the hyaluronic acid that holds water in your tissues. Lose both? You literally cannot get wet OR stay moist. It's like your vagina forgot how to vagina.
DISASTER #3: The Bacterial Genocide:
This one's mainly estrogen's fault. When estrogen drops, your pH goes from a healthy acidic 4.5 to alkaline. Your good bacteria die off. What thrives instead? The bacteria that cause infections and that onion-in-a-gym-sock smell."
She circled where all three overlapped...
"THIS is where you live now. Your testosterone can't trigger arousal. Your estrogen can't maintain moisture or pH. Everything's falling apart at once."
========
"So give me both hormones," I begged.
She sighed.
"I could prescribe testosterone cream. But insurance won't cover it. That's $550 per pellet, out of pocket. They'll pay for men's testosterone in seven different forms, but for women? Nothing.

- Pills
- Nasal sprays
Plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... ALL covered.
But a woman who can't get aroused because she lost her testosterone?
A woman whose vagina tears because the tissues are starving?
A woman who wants her husband but her body won't respond?
"Here's some lube, sweetie."
I'M DONE WITH THIS CRAP. Seriously.
========
Listen, I spent two years and probably $3,000 trying to fix what hormone loss destroyed:
- Prescription creams that gave me hot flashes
- Antibiotics that destroyed my gut
- Probiotics that did nothing
- Coconut oil that caused infections
- $200 "medical-grade" lube that felt like pouring Elmer's glue in my vagina
- Therapy because maybe it was "all in my head"
- Acupuncture (desperation makes you try anything)
Then I found Radiancy which costs $49.
FORTY-NINE DOLLARS.
Less than a decent bra.
Less than one co-pay to another useless doctor.
Less than 1/10th of ONE testosterone pellet.
Less than what I spend on coffee in a month.
$6,600 a year for testosterone pellets? Or $49 for Radiancy?
Even my husband's MBA brain couldn't argue with that math.
========
The science is stupidly simple:
Testosterone and estrogen used to protect three things:
- Collagen production (testosterone for strength, estrogen for thickness)
- Moisture systems (testosterone for arousal wetness, estrogen for baseline moisture)
- Bacterial balance (estrogen for pH, which keeps good bacteria thriving)
Menopause kills your hormones.
Your hormones stop protecting these systems.
Everything falls apart.
Radiancy bypasses the hormones and feeds the systems directly.
Not with synthetic hormones...
Not with chemicals....
With the exact nutrients your tissues need to rebuild.
It's not magic. It's just biochemistry.

Jan 17, 2026 - Present
No one mentions you also lose the hormone that controls whether your clitoris works, whether you can get wet when you're turned on, and whether sex feels like anything at all.
By 47, I'd lost half of mine.
And finally understood why my body felt broken.
========
At 35, I thought occasional dryness was annoying.
At 45?
My vagina felt like someone had replaced my natural moisture with broken glass.
Sex wasn't just uncomfortable... it was a special kind of torture that made me understand why some women just give up.
========
It was the smell after sex that hit me first.
Not the usual smell.
Something… wrong.
Like onions mixed with copper pennies.
I'd rush to the bathroom immediately after, desperate to shower.
My husband never said anything, but I knew he noticed.
How could he not?
The smell would linger for hours.
I started avoiding sex just to avoid that smell.
========
Then came the infections...
UTI in January. Yeast in February. BV in March.
My pharmacy knew me by name.
The pharmacist started giving me that sympathy look reserved for people with chronic conditions.
"Another round of antibiotics, hon?"
Another round.
Another failure.
Another month of my vagina declaring war on my body.
========
And the dryness?
One woman online described it perfectly:
"It's like my vagina is the Sahara and no amount of lube can make it an oasis."
That's exactly it.
Lube would sit on top like oil on water.
Nothing absorbed.
Nothing helped.
Just… dry.
========
My breaking point came at my daughter's college graduation.
Sitting in that auditorium, surrounded by other proud parents.
I felt the burning start.
That familiar raw, scraping sensation that meant another UTI was brewing.
I shifted in my seat.
Crossed my legs.
Uncrossed them.
My husband whispered, "You okay?"
No.
I wasn't okay.
I was 47 years old, watching my daughter graduate magna cum laude, and all I could think about was the fire between my legs.
========
The next morning, I called my sixth gynecologist...
"I can squeeze you in Thursday at 3:45."
Keep in mind, I'd already seen:
Dr. Martin ("Just use more lube")
Dr. Phillips ("Try coconut oil")
Dr. Ramirez ("It's stress-related")
Dr. Kim ("Part of natural aging")
Dr. Foster ("Have you considered antidepressants?")
But Lauren from book club had insisted:
"You HAVE to see Dr. Chen. She's different."
========
Dr. Chen didn't even look at her computer for the first ten minutes.
She just listened.
When I finished my whole pathetic story, she pulled out a marker and started drawing on the exam table paper.
"Your vagina isn't broken. It's being sabotaged by a hormone no one talks about."
She wrote one word in big letters: TESTOSTERONE
"Everyone obsesses over estrogen during menopause. But you know what they don't tell you? Women lose 50% of their testosterone by menopause. FIFTY PERCENT."
She drew what looked like a plant wilting...
"Think of testosterone like WD-40 for your vagina. It keeps everything moving, flowing, responding. Without it? Everything seizes up and starts breaking down.
You know what testosterone actually does down there?
It's like plant food for arousal — Your clitoris has more testosterone receptors than almost any other part of your body. No wonder orgasms become extinct after 45.
It controls blood flow — Without it, your tissues literally starve for oxygen. They become thin, fragile, easy to tear.
It triggers arousal lubrication — That natural wetness when you're turned on? Testosterone makes that happen. Without it, even when your mind wants sex, your body can't respond."
========
She drew three overlapping circles.
"But here's the thing — it's not just testosterone. You're losing estrogen too. Together, they create a triple disaster:
DISASTER #1: The Collagen Collapse:
Both hormones signal collagen production. Without them, your vaginal walls go from thick rubber band to wet tissue paper. That's why you tear and bleed. Testosterone specifically maintains tissue strength and elasticity.
DISASTER #2: The Moisture Apocalypse:
Testosterone controls arousal moisture - that slippery wetness when you're turned on. Estrogen controls baseline moisture and the hyaluronic acid that holds water in your tissues. Lose both? You literally cannot get wet OR stay moist. It's like your vagina forgot how to vagina.
DISASTER #3: The Bacterial Genocide:
This one's mainly estrogen's fault. When estrogen drops, your pH goes from a healthy acidic 4.5 to alkaline. Your good bacteria die off. What thrives instead? The bacteria that cause infections and that onion-in-a-gym-sock smell."
She circled where all three overlapped...
"THIS is where you live now. Your testosterone can't trigger arousal. Your estrogen can't maintain moisture or pH. Everything's falling apart at once."
========
"So give me both hormones," I begged.
She sighed.
"I could prescribe testosterone cream. But insurance won't cover it. That's $550 per pellet, out of pocket. They'll pay for men's testosterone in seven different forms, but for women? Nothing.
I could add estrogen cream. Might help with baseline moisture and pH but won't restore arousal response or rebuild collagen. Plus your family history makes it risky.
The truth is…"
She paused, choosing her words carefully...
"The women who get better are the ones who bypass the hormone replacement altogether...
They're using targeted nutrition to restore what BOTH hormones used to protect: the collagen that testosterone and estrogen maintained, the moisture systems, and the bacterial balance.
Not with prescriptions, but with the exact nutrients your tissues need."
========
"Like what? Another probiotic?"
"No, you need all three systems rebuilt simultaneously. Medical-grade collagen - especially Type V that both hormones used to stimulate. Hyaluronic acid in clinical doses to replace what estrogen maintained.
And specific probiotic strains that restore the pH that estrogen used to control."
She wrote on her prescription pad:
- Multi-collagen complex (must include Type V)
- Hyaluronic acid (30mg minimum)
- L. acidophilus, L. gasseri, L. fermentum
"Find something with all three. Together. That's how you restore what testosterone AND estrogen used to do."
========
I went home and fell down the Google rabbit hole.
Found a Reddit comment that stopped me cold:
"Without testosterone, women have osteoporosis, heart disease, zero energy, plus we can't get aroused even when we want sex desperately. Insurance STILL won't pay. But they pay for testosterone for men in 10 different ways, plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... Meanwhile I can't even get wet for my husband who I'm still crazy about."
She was right. And it broke my heart.
But then, in that same thread, dozens of women were raving about something called Radiancy.
"Felt like sandpaper even with lube. Now I actually get WET when aroused - like my body remembered how to respond again."
"The onion smell after sex? GONE in 2 weeks. pH is finally normal."
"First time I've had an orgasm in 3 years. Thought that part of me was dead."
========
I checked the ingredients against Dr. Chen's list.
Holy sh*t. It had everything:
- Five types of medical-grade collagen (including Type V)
- 30mg hyaluronic acid (exactly what she said)
- All three probiotic strains she mentioned
Plus reviews from women describing MY EXACT LIFE:
"Lost my testosterone and couldn't get aroused even watching Magic Mike" (literally me)
"Insurance won't cover hormone therapy but they'll cover my husband's ED meds" (RAGE)
"Radiancy gave me back what menopause stole — I can actually FEEL things again" (please God let this be me)
========
$49 seemed insultingly cheap for something that could restore what both hormones used to protect.
Considering I'd already spent:
$300 on prescription creams
$500 on specialty lubes
$400 on probiotics that did nothing
$200 on coconut oil and "natural" remedies
$1,600 on doctor visits
What's another $49?
It arrived in a plain brown box.
(Thank God, because explaining "vaginal restoration pills" to my teenager would've ended me)
Two capsules.
Every morning.
That's it.
========
The Transformation Timeline:
Day 3: The burning during urination stopped.
Day 5: That post-sex onion smell… gone. pH normalizing.
Day 8: I wiped after peeing and felt… slippery? Natural moisture. Holy crap.
Day 12: Had sex without lube for the first time in two years. Didn't bleed. Didn't cry. Actually FELT arousal building.
Day 15: Got randomly turned on folding laundry. Haven't felt spontaneous arousal since Obama's first term.
Day 18: Wore a thong. (Had been in granny panties since 2019)
Day 21: My husband grabbed my ass while I was cooking and I didn't flinch. I pushed back. I WANTED him.
Day 28: I initiated sex. Me. At 10:30 PM. On a Tuesday. And I came.
========
Day 35: Went back to Dr. Chen for a follow-up.
She examined me and actually smiled...
"Your vaginal walls have regained elasticity. Moisture levels are normal. pH is 4.2 — perfect.
This is what I see in women on dual hormone therapy, but you did it nutritionally. You've supported the systems those hormones once protected."
I showed her the Radiancy bottle.
She nodded. "That's exactly what I hoped you'd find. You're rebuilding all three systems naturally."
========
Three months later, I'm a different person.
No, that's wrong.
I'm ME again.
The me who could get aroused from a look.
The me who got wet without a bottle of lube.
The me who could sit through a movie without burning.
The me who didn't smell like a Subway sandwich after sex.
The me who actually WANTED sex instead of enduring it.
The me whose clitoris remembered how to work.
========
Because here's what still makes me absolutely RAGE:
Women lose 50% of their testosterone by menopause.
FIFTY PERCENT.
This hormone controls:
- Sexual arousal and response
- Vaginal blood flow and tissue health
- Clitoral sensitivity (fun fact: more testosterone receptors there than almost anywhere)
- Energy, muscle, bone density
And insurance won't cover it for women.
A testosterone pellet costs $550 out of pocket.
That's $6,600 a year just to feel human again.
Meanwhile, men get testosterone covered in:
- Injections
- Gels
- Patches
- Pellets
- Creams
- Pills
- Nasal sprays
Plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... ALL covered.
But a woman who can't get aroused because she lost her testosterone?
A woman whose vagina tears because the tissues are starving?
A woman who wants her husband but her body won't respond?
"Here's some lube, sweetie."
I'M DONE WITH THIS CRAP. Seriously.

"Everyone obsesses over estrogen during menopause. But you know what they don't tell you? Women lose 50% of their testosterone by menopause. FIFTY PERCENT."
She drew what looked like a plant wilting...
"Think of testosterone like WD-40 for your vagina. It keeps everything moving, flowing, responding. Without it? Everything seizes up and starts breaking down.
You know what testosterone actually does down there?
It's like plant food for arousal — Your clitoris has more testosterone receptors than almost any other part of your body. No wonder orgasms become extinct after 45.
It controls blood flow — Without it, your tissues literally starve for oxygen. They become thin, fragile, easy to tear.
It triggers arousal lubrication — That natural wetness when you're turned on? Testosterone makes that happen. Without it, even when your mind wants sex, your body can't respond."
========
She drew three overlapping circles.
"But here's the thing — it's not just testosterone. You're losing estrogen too. Together, they create a triple disaster:
DISASTER #1: The Collagen Collapse:
Both hormones signal collagen production. Without them, your vaginal walls go from thick rubber band to wet tissue paper. That's why you tear and bleed. Testosterone specifically maintains tissue strength and elasticity.
DISASTER #2: The Moisture Apocalypse:
Testosterone controls arousal moisture - that slippery wetness when you're turned on. Estrogen controls baseline moisture and the hyaluronic acid that holds water in your tissues. Lose both? You literally cannot get wet OR stay moist. It's like your vagina forgot how to vagina.
DISASTER #3: The Bacterial Genocide:
This one's mainly estrogen's fault. When estrogen drops, your pH goes from a healthy acidic 4.5 to alkaline. Your good bacteria die off. What thrives instead? The bacteria that cause infections and that onion-in-a-gym-sock smell."
She circled where all three overlapped...
"THIS is where you live now. Your testosterone can't trigger arousal. Your estrogen can't maintain moisture or pH. Everything's falling apart at once."
========
"So give me both hormones," I begged.
She sighed.
"I could prescribe testosterone cream. But insurance won't cover it. That's $550 per pellet, out of pocket. They'll pay for men's testosterone in seven different forms, but for women? Nothing.
I could add estrogen cream. Might help with baseline moisture and pH but won't restore arousal response or rebuild collagen. Plus your family history makes it risky.
The truth is…"
She paused, choosing her words carefully...
"The women who get better are the ones who bypass the hormone replacement altogether...
They're using targeted nutrition to restore what BOTH hormones used to protect: the collagen that testosterone and estrogen maintained, the moisture systems, and the bacterial balance.
Not with prescriptions, but with the exact nutrients your tissues need."
========
"Like what? Another probiotic?"
"No, you need all three systems rebuilt simultaneously. Medical-grade collagen - especially Type V that both hormones used to stimulate. Hyaluronic acid in clinical doses to replace what estrogen maintained.
And specific probiotic strains that restore the pH that estrogen used to control."
She wrote on her prescription pad:
- Multi-collagen complex (must include Type V)
- Hyaluronic acid (30mg minimum)
- L. acidophilus, L. gasseri, L. fermentum
"Find something with all three. Together. That's how you restore what testosterone AND estrogen used to do."
========
I went home and fell down the Google rabbit hole.
Found a Reddit comment that stopped me cold:
"Without testosterone, women have osteoporosis, heart disease, zero energy, plus we can't get aroused even when we want sex desperately. Insurance STILL won't pay. But they pay for testosterone for men in 10 different ways, plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... Meanwhile I can't even get wet for my husband who I'm still crazy about."
She was right. And it broke my heart.
But then, in that same thread, dozens of women were raving about something called Radiancy.
"Felt like sandpaper even with lube. Now I actually get WET when aroused - like my body remembered how to respond again."
"The onion smell after sex? GONE in 2 weeks. pH is finally normal."
"First time I've had an orgasm in 3 years. Thought that part of me was dead."
========
I checked the ingredients against Dr. Chen's list.
Holy sh*t. It had everything:
- Five types of medical-grade collagen (including Type V)
- 30mg hyaluronic acid (exactly what she said)
- All three probiotic strains she mentioned
Plus reviews from women describing MY EXACT LIFE:
"Lost my testosterone and couldn't get aroused even watching Magic Mike" (literally me)
"Insurance won't cover hormone therapy but they'll cover my husband's ED meds" (RAGE)
"Radiancy gave me back what menopause stole — I can actually FEEL things again" (please God let this be me)
========
$49 seemed insultingly cheap for something that could restore what both hormones used to protect.
Considering I'd already spent:
$300 on prescription creams
$500 on specialty lubes
$400 on probiotics that did nothing
$200 on coconut oil and "natural" remedies
$1,600 on doctor visits
What's another $49?
It arrived in a plain brown box.
(Thank God, because explaining "vaginal restoration pills" to my teenager would've ended me)
Two capsules.
Every morning.
That's it.
========
The Transformation Timeline:
Day 3: The burning during urination stopped.
Day 5: That post-sex onion smell… gone. pH normalizing.
Day 8: I wiped after peeing and felt… slippery? Natural moisture. Holy crap.
Day 12: Had sex without lube for the first time in two years. Didn't bleed. Didn't cry. Actually FELT arousal building.
Day 15: Got randomly turned on folding laundry. Haven't felt spontaneous arousal since Obama's first term.
Day 18: Wore a thong. (Had been in granny panties since 2019)
Day 21: My husband grabbed my ass while I was cooking and I didn't flinch. I pushed back. I WANTED him.
Day 28: I initiated sex. Me. At 10:30 PM. On a Tuesday. And I came.
========
Day 35: Went back to Dr. Chen for a follow-up.
She examined me and actually smiled...
"Your vaginal walls have regained elasticity. Moisture levels are normal. pH is 4.2 — perfect.
This is what I see in women on dual hormone therapy, but you did it nutritionally. You've supported the systems those hormones once protected."
I showed her the Radiancy bottle.
She nodded. "That's exactly what I hoped you'd find. You're rebuilding all three systems naturally."
========
Three months later, I'm a different person.
No, that's wrong.
I'm ME again.
The me who could get aroused from a look.
The me who got wet without a bottle of lube.
The me who could sit through a movie without burning.
The me who didn't smell like a Subway sandwich after sex.
The me who actually WANTED sex instead of enduring it.
The me whose clitoris remembered how to work.
========
Because here's what still makes me absolutely RAGE:
Women lose 50% of their testosterone by menopause.
FIFTY PERCENT.
This hormone controls:
- Sexual arousal and response
- Vaginal blood flow and tissue health
- Clitoral sensitivity (fun fact: more testosterone receptors there than almost anywhere)
- Energy, muscle, bone density
And insurance won't cover it for women.
A testosterone pellet costs $550 out of pocket.
That's $6,600 a year just to feel human again.
Meanwhile, men get testosterone covered in:
- Injections
- Gels
- Patches
- Pellets
- Creams
- Pills
- Nasal sprays
Plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... ALL covered.
But a woman who can't get aroused because she lost her testosterone?
A woman whose vagina tears because the tissues are starving?
A woman who wants her husband but her body won't respond?
"Here's some lube, sweetie."
I'M DONE WITH THIS CRAP. Seriously.
========
Listen, I spent two years and probably $3,000 trying to fix what hormone loss destroyed:
- Prescription creams that gave me hot flashes
- Antibiotics that destroyed my gut
- Probiotics that did nothing
- Coconut oil that caused infections
- $200 "medical-grade" lube that felt like pouring Elmer's glue in my vagina
- Therapy because maybe it was "all in my head"
- Acupuncture (desperation makes you try anything)
Then I found Radiancy which costs $49.
FORTY-NINE DOLLARS.
Less than a decent bra.
Less than one co-pay to another useless doctor.
Less than 1/10th of ONE testosterone pellet.
Less than what I spend on coffee in a month.
$6,600 a year for testosterone pellets? Or $49 for Radiancy?
Even my husband's MBA brain couldn't argue with that math.
========
The science is stupidly simple:
Testosterone and estrogen used to protect three things:
- Collagen production (testosterone for strength, estrogen for thickness)
- Moisture systems (testosterone for arousal wetness, estrogen for baseline moisture)
- Bacterial balance (estrogen for pH, which keeps good bacteria thriving)
Menopause kills your hormones.
Your hormones stop protecting these systems.
Everything falls apart.
Radiancy bypasses the hormones and feeds the systems directly.
Not with synthetic hormones...
Not with chemicals....
With the exact nutrients your tissues need to rebuild.
It's not magic. It's just biochemistry.
========
Because here's the thing.
Dr. Chen asked me specific questions in that exam room - questions that actually mattered.
Not "how's your stress?" or "are you drinking enough water?"
Real questions about what was actually happening to my body.
This 60-second quiz asks you the same ones:
How dry are you? What kind of infections keep coming back? Is there smell? Burning? Pain during sex?
Answer honestly, and it'll tell you if Radiancy's three-system approach (collagen + moisture + bacteria) is built for YOUR specific symptoms.

Because you deserve to feel like yourself again.
By 47, I'd lost half of mine.
And finally understood why my body felt broken.
========
At 35, I thought occasional dryness was annoying.
At 45?
My vagina felt like someone had replaced my natural moisture with broken glass.
Sex wasn't just uncomfortable... it was a special kind of torture that made me understand why some women just give up.
========
It was the smell after sex that hit me first.
Not the usual smell.
Something… wrong.
Like onions mixed with copper pennies.
I'd rush to the bathroom immediately after, desperate to shower.
My husband never said anything, but I knew he noticed.
How could he not?
The smell would linger for hours.
I started avoiding sex just to avoid that smell.
========
Then came the infections...
UTI in January. Yeast in February. BV in March.
My pharmacy knew me by name.
The pharmacist started giving me that sympathy look reserved for people with chronic conditions.
"Another round of antibiotics, hon?"
Another round.
Another failure.
Another month of my vagina declaring war on my body.
========
And the dryness?
One woman online described it perfectly:
"It's like my vagina is the Sahara and no amount of lube can make it an oasis."
That's exactly it.
Lube would sit on top like oil on water.
Nothing absorbed.
Nothing helped.
Just… dry.
========
My breaking point came at my daughter's college graduation.
Sitting in that auditorium, surrounded by other proud parents.
I felt the burning start.
That familiar raw, scraping sensation that meant another UTI was brewing.
I shifted in my seat.
Crossed my legs.
Uncrossed them.
My husband whispered, "You okay?"
No.
I wasn't okay.
I was 47 years old, watching my daughter graduate magna cum laude, and all I could think about was the fire between my legs.
========
The next morning, I called my sixth gynecologist...
"I can squeeze you in Thursday at 3:45."
Keep in mind, I'd already seen:
Dr. Martin ("Just use more lube")
Dr. Phillips ("Try coconut oil")
Dr. Ramirez ("It's stress-related")
Dr. Kim ("Part of natural aging")
Dr. Foster ("Have you considered antidepressants?")
But Lauren from book club had insisted:
"You HAVE to see Dr. Chen. She's different."
========
Dr. Chen didn't even look at her computer for the first ten minutes.
She just listened.
When I finished my whole pathetic story, she pulled out a marker and started drawing on the exam table paper.
"Your vagina isn't broken. It's being sabotaged by a hormone no one talks about."
She wrote one word in big letters: TESTOSTERONE
"Everyone obsesses over estrogen during menopause. But you know what they don't tell you? Women lose 50% of their testosterone by menopause. FIFTY PERCENT."

Considering I'd already spent:
$300 on prescription creams
$500 on specialty lubes
$400 on probiotics that did nothing
$200 on coconut oil and "natural" remedies
$1,600 on doctor visits
What's another $49?
It arrived in a plain brown box.
(Thank God, because explaining "vaginal restoration pills" to my teenager would've ended me)
Two capsules.
Every morning.
That's it.
========
The Transformation Timeline:
Day 3: The burning during urination stopped.
Day 5: That post-sex onion smell… gone. pH normalizing.
Day 8: I wiped after peeing and felt… slippery? Natural moisture. Holy crap.
Day 12: Had sex without lube for the first time in two years. Didn't bleed. Didn't cry. Actually FELT arousal building.
Day 15: Got randomly turned on folding laundry. Haven't felt spontaneous arousal since Obama's first term.
Day 18: Wore a thong. (Had been in granny panties since 2019)
Day 21: My husband grabbed my ass while I was cooking and I didn't flinch. I pushed back. I WANTED him.
Day 28: I initiated sex. Me. At 10:30 PM. On a Tuesday. And I came.
========
Day 35: Went back to Dr. Chen for a follow-up.
She examined me and actually smiled...
"Your vaginal walls have regained elasticity. Moisture levels are normal. pH is 4.2 — perfect.
This is what I see in women on dual hormone therapy, but you did it nutritionally. You've supported the systems those hormones once protected."
I showed her the Radiancy bottle.
She nodded. "That's exactly what I hoped you'd find. You're rebuilding all three systems naturally."
========
Three months later, I'm a different person.
No, that's wrong.
I'm ME again.
The me who could get aroused from a look.
The me who got wet without a bottle of lube.
The me who could sit through a movie without burning.
The me who didn't smell like a Subway sandwich after sex.
The me who actually WANTED sex instead of enduring it.
The me whose clitoris remembered how to work.
========
Because here's what still makes me absolutely RAGE:
Women lose 50% of their testosterone by menopause.
FIFTY PERCENT.
This hormone controls:
- Sexual arousal and response
- Vaginal blood flow and tissue health
- Clitoral sensitivity (fun fact: more testosterone receptors there than almost anywhere)
- Energy, muscle, bone density
And insurance won't cover it for women.
A testosterone pellet costs $550 out of pocket.
That's $6,600 a year just to feel human again.
Meanwhile, men get testosterone covered in:
- Injections
- Gels
- Patches
- Pellets
- Creams
- Pills
- Nasal sprays
Plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... ALL covered.
But a woman who can't get aroused because she lost her testosterone?
A woman whose vagina tears because the tissues are starving?
A woman who wants her husband but her body won't respond?
"Here's some lube, sweetie."
I'M DONE WITH THIS CRAP. Seriously.
========
Listen, I spent two years and probably $3,000 trying to fix what hormone loss destroyed:
- Prescription creams that gave me hot flashes
- Antibiotics that destroyed my gut
- Probiotics that did nothing
- Coconut oil that caused infections
- $200 "medical-grade" lube that felt like pouring Elmer's glue in my vagina
- Therapy because maybe it was "all in my head"
- Acupuncture (desperation makes you try anything)
Then I found Radiancy which costs $49.
FORTY-NINE DOLLARS.
Less than a decent bra.
Less than one co-pay to another useless doctor.
Less than 1/10th of ONE testosterone pellet.
Less than what I spend on coffee in a month.
$6,600 a year for testosterone pellets? Or $49 for Radiancy?
Even my husband's MBA brain couldn't argue with that math.
========
The science is stupidly simple:
Testosterone and estrogen used to protect three things:
- Collagen production (testosterone for strength, estrogen for thickness)
- Moisture systems (testosterone for arousal wetness, estrogen for baseline moisture)
- Bacterial balance (estrogen for pH, which keeps good bacteria thriving)
Menopause kills your hormones.
Your hormones stop protecting these systems.
Everything falls apart.
Radiancy bypasses the hormones and feeds the systems directly.
Not with synthetic hormones...
Not with chemicals....
With the exact nutrients your tissues need to rebuild.
It's not magic. It's just biochemistry.

By 47, I'd lost half of mine.
And finally understood why my body felt broken.
========
At 35, I thought occasional dryness was annoying.
At 45?
My vagina felt like someone had replaced my natural moisture with broken glass.
Sex wasn't just uncomfortable... it was a special kind of torture that made me understand why some women just give up.
========
It was the smell after sex that hit me first.
Not the usual smell.
Something… wrong.
Like onions mixed with copper pennies.
I'd rush to the bathroom immediately after, desperate to shower.
My husband never said anything, but I knew he noticed.
How could he not?
The smell would linger for hours.
I started avoiding sex just to avoid that smell.
========
Then came the infections...
UTI in January. Yeast in February. BV in March.
My pharmacy knew me by name.
The pharmacist started giving me that sympathy look reserved for people with chronic conditions.
"Another round of antibiotics, hon?"
Another round.
Another failure.
Another month of my vagina declaring war on my body.
========
And the dryness?
One woman online described it perfectly:
"It's like my vagina is the Sahara and no amount of lube can make it an oasis."
That's exactly it.
Lube would sit on top like oil on water.
Nothing absorbed.
Nothing helped.
Just… dry.
========
My breaking point came at my daughter's college graduation.
Sitting in that auditorium, surrounded by other proud parents.
I felt the burning start.
That familiar raw, scraping sensation that meant another UTI was brewing.
I shifted in my seat.
Crossed my legs.
Uncrossed them.
My husband whispered, "You okay?"
No.
I wasn't okay.
I was 47 years old, watching my daughter graduate magna cum laude, and all I could think about was the fire between my legs.
========
The next morning, I called my sixth gynecologist...
"I can squeeze you in Thursday at 3:45."
Keep in mind, I'd already seen:
Dr. Martin ("Just use more lube")
Dr. Phillips ("Try coconut oil")
Dr. Ramirez ("It's stress-related")
Dr. Kim ("Part of natural aging")
Dr. Foster ("Have you considered antidepressants?")
But Lauren from book club had insisted:
"You HAVE to see Dr. Chen. She's different."
========
Dr. Chen didn't even look at her computer for the first ten minutes.
She just listened.
When I finished my whole pathetic story, she pulled out a marker and started drawing on the exam table paper.
"Your vagina isn't broken. It's being sabotaged by a hormone no one talks about."
She wrote one word in big letters: TESTOSTERONE
"Everyone obsesses over estrogen during menopause. But you know what they don't tell you? Women lose 50% of their testosterone by menopause. FIFTY PERCENT."
She drew what looked like a plant wilting...
"Think of testosterone like WD-40 for your vagina. It keeps everything moving, flowing, responding. Without it? Everything seizes up and starts breaking down.
You know what testosterone actually does down there?
It's like plant food for arousal — Your clitoris has more testosterone receptors than almost any other part of your body. No wonder orgasms become extinct after 45.
It controls blood flow — Without it, your tissues literally starve for oxygen. They become thin, fragile, easy to tear.
It triggers arousal lubrication — That natural wetness when you're turned on? Testosterone makes that happen. Without it, even when your mind wants sex, your body can't respond."
========
She drew three overlapping circles.
"But here's the thing — it's not just testosterone. You're losing estrogen too. Together, they create a triple disaster:
DISASTER #1: The Collagen Collapse:
Both hormones signal collagen production. Without them, your vaginal walls go from thick rubber band to wet tissue paper. That's why you tear and bleed. Testosterone specifically maintains tissue strength and elasticity.
DISASTER #2: The Moisture Apocalypse:
Testosterone controls arousal moisture - that slippery wetness when you're turned on. Estrogen controls baseline moisture and the hyaluronic acid that holds water in your tissues. Lose both? You literally cannot get wet OR stay moist. It's like your vagina forgot how to vagina.
DISASTER #3: The Bacterial Genocide:
This one's mainly estrogen's fault. When estrogen drops, your pH goes from a healthy acidic 4.5 to alkaline. Your good bacteria die off. What thrives instead? The bacteria that cause infections and that onion-in-a-gym-sock smell."
She circled where all three overlapped...
"THIS is where you live now. Your testosterone can't trigger arousal. Your estrogen can't maintain moisture or pH. Everything's falling apart at once."
========
"So give me both hormones," I begged.
She sighed.
"I could prescribe testosterone cream. But insurance won't cover it. That's $550 per pellet, out of pocket. They'll pay for men's testosterone in seven different forms, but for women? Nothing.
I could add estrogen cream. Might help with baseline moisture and pH but won't restore arousal response or rebuild collagen. Plus your family history makes it risky.
The truth is…"
She paused, choosing her words carefully...
"The women who get better are the ones who bypass the hormone replacement altogether...
They're using targeted nutrition to restore what BOTH hormones used to protect: the collagen that testosterone and estrogen maintained, the moisture systems, and the bacterial balance.
Not with prescriptions, but with the exact nutrients your tissues need."
========
"Like what? Another probiotic?"
"No, you need all three systems rebuilt simultaneously. Medical-grade collagen - especially Type V that both hormones used to stimulate. Hyaluronic acid in clinical doses to replace what estrogen maintained.
And specific probiotic strains that restore the pH that estrogen used to control."
She wrote on her prescription pad:
- Multi-collagen complex (must include Type V)
- Hyaluronic acid (30mg minimum)
- L. acidophilus, L. gasseri, L. fermentum
"Find something with all three. Together. That's how you restore what testosterone AND estrogen used to do."
========
I went home and fell down the Google rabbit hole.
Found a Reddit comment that stopped me cold:
"Without testosterone, women have osteoporosis, heart disease, zero energy, plus we can't get aroused even when we want sex desperately. Insurance STILL won't pay. But they pay for testosterone for men in 10 different ways, plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... Meanwhile I can't even get wet for my husband who I'm still crazy about."
She was right. And it broke my heart.
But then, in that same thread, dozens of women were raving about something called Radiancy.
"Felt like sandpaper even with lube. Now I actually get WET when aroused - like my body remembered how to respond again."
"The onion smell after sex? GONE in 2 weeks. pH is finally normal."
"First time I've had an orgasm in 3 years. Thought that part of me was dead."
========
I checked the ingredients against Dr. Chen's list.
Holy sh*t. It had everything:
- Five types of medical-grade collagen (including Type V)
- 30mg hyaluronic acid (exactly what she said)
- All three probiotic strains she mentioned
Plus reviews from women describing MY EXACT LIFE:
"Lost my testosterone and couldn't get aroused even watching Magic Mike" (literally me)
"Insurance won't cover hormone therapy but they'll cover my husband's ED meds" (RAGE)
"Radiancy gave me back what menopause stole — I can actually FEEL things again" (please God let this be me)
========

By 47, I'd lost half of mine.
And finally understood why my body felt broken.
========
At 35, I thought occasional dryness was annoying.
At 45?
My vagina felt like someone had replaced my natural moisture with broken glass.
Sex wasn't just uncomfortable... it was a special kind of torture that made me understand why some women just give up.
========
It was the smell after sex that hit me first.
Not the usual smell.
Something… wrong.
Like onions mixed with copper pennies.
I'd rush to the bathroom immediately after, desperate to shower.
My husband never said anything, but I knew he noticed.
How could he not?
The smell would linger for hours.
I started avoiding sex just to avoid that smell.
========
Then came the infections...
UTI in January. Yeast in February. BV in March.
My pharmacy knew me by name.
The pharmacist started giving me that sympathy look reserved for people with chronic conditions.
"Another round of antibiotics, hon?"
Another round.
Another failure.
Another month of my vagina declaring war on my body.
========
And the dryness?
One woman online described it perfectly:
"It's like my vagina is the Sahara and no amount of lube can make it an oasis."
That's exactly it.
Lube would sit on top like oil on water.
Nothing absorbed.
Nothing helped.
Just… dry.
========
My breaking point came at my daughter's college graduation.
Sitting in that auditorium, surrounded by other proud parents.
I felt the burning start.
That familiar raw, scraping sensation that meant another UTI was brewing.
I shifted in my seat.
Crossed my legs.
Uncrossed them.
My husband whispered, "You okay?"
No.
I wasn't okay.
I was 47 years old, watching my daughter graduate magna cum laude, and all I could think about was the fire between my legs.
========
The next morning, I called my sixth gynecologist...
"I can squeeze you in Thursday at 3:45."
Keep in mind, I'd already seen:
Dr. Martin ("Just use more lube")
Dr. Phillips ("Try coconut oil")
Dr. Ramirez ("It's stress-related")
Dr. Kim ("Part of natural aging")
Dr. Foster ("Have you considered antidepressants?")
But Lauren from book club had insisted:
"You HAVE to see Dr. Chen. She's different."
========
Dr. Chen didn't even look at her computer for the first ten minutes.
She just listened.
When I finished my whole pathetic story, she pulled out a marker and started drawing on the exam table paper.
"Your vagina isn't broken. It's being sabotaged by a hormone no one talks about."
She wrote one word in big letters: TESTOSTERONE
"Everyone obsesses over estrogen during menopause. But you know what they don't tell you? Women lose 50% of their testosterone by menopause. FIFTY PERCENT."
She drew what looked like a plant wilting...
"Think of testosterone like WD-40 for your vagina. It keeps everything moving, flowing, responding. Without it? Everything seizes up and starts breaking down.
You know what testosterone actually does down there?
It's like plant food for arousal — Your clitoris has more testosterone receptors than almost any other part of your body. No wonder orgasms become extinct after 45.
It controls blood flow — Without it, your tissues literally starve for oxygen. They become thin, fragile, easy to tear.
It triggers arousal lubrication — That natural wetness when you're turned on? Testosterone makes that happen. Without it, even when your mind wants sex, your body can't respond."
========
She drew three overlapping circles.
"But here's the thing — it's not just testosterone. You're losing estrogen too. Together, they create a triple disaster:
DISASTER #1: The Collagen Collapse:
Both hormones signal collagen production. Without them, your vaginal walls go from thick rubber band to wet tissue paper. That's why you tear and bleed. Testosterone specifically maintains tissue strength and elasticity.
DISASTER #2: The Moisture Apocalypse:
Testosterone controls arousal moisture - that slippery wetness when you're turned on. Estrogen controls baseline moisture and the hyaluronic acid that holds water in your tissues. Lose both? You literally cannot get wet OR stay moist. It's like your vagina forgot how to vagina.
DISASTER #3: The Bacterial Genocide:
This one's mainly estrogen's fault. When estrogen drops, your pH goes from a healthy acidic 4.5 to alkaline. Your good bacteria die off. What thrives instead? The bacteria that cause infections and that onion-in-a-gym-sock smell."
She circled where all three overlapped...
"THIS is where you live now. Your testosterone can't trigger arousal. Your estrogen can't maintain moisture or pH. Everything's falling apart at once."
========
"So give me both hormones," I begged.
She sighed.
"I could prescribe testosterone cream. But insurance won't cover it. That's $550 per pellet, out of pocket. They'll pay for men's testosterone in seven different forms, but for women? Nothing.
I could add estrogen cream. Might help with baseline moisture and pH but won't restore arousal response or rebuild collagen. Plus your family history makes it risky.
The truth is…"
She paused, choosing her words carefully...
"The women who get better are the ones who bypass the hormone replacement altogether...
They're using targeted nutrition to restore what BOTH hormones used to protect: the collagen that testosterone and estrogen maintained, the moisture systems, and the bacterial balance.
Not with prescriptions, but with the exact nutrients your tissues need."
========
"Like what? Another probiotic?"
"No, you need all three systems rebuilt simultaneously. Medical-grade collagen - especially Type V that both hormones used to stimulate. Hyaluronic acid in clinical doses to replace what estrogen maintained.
And specific probiotic strains that restore the pH that estrogen used to control."
She wrote on her prescription pad:
- Multi-collagen complex (must include Type V)
- Hyaluronic acid (30mg minimum)
- L. acidophilus, L. gasseri, L. fermentum
"Find something with all three. Together. That's how you restore what testosterone AND estrogen used to do."
========
I went home and fell down the Google rabbit hole.
Found a Reddit comment that stopped me cold:
"Without testosterone, women have osteoporosis, heart disease, zero energy, plus we can't get aroused even when we want sex desperately. Insurance STILL won't pay. But they pay for testosterone for men in 10 different ways, plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... Meanwhile I can't even get wet for my husband who I'm still crazy about."
She was right. And it broke my heart.
But then, in that same thread, dozens of women were raving about something called Radiancy.
"Felt like sandpaper even with lube. Now I actually get WET when aroused - like my body remembered how to respond again."
"The onion smell after sex? GONE in 2 weeks. pH is finally normal."
"First time I've had an orgasm in 3 years. Thought that part of me was dead."
========
I checked the ingredients against Dr. Chen's list.
Holy sh*t. It had everything:
- Five types of medical-grade collagen (including Type V)
- 30mg hyaluronic acid (exactly what she said)
- All three probiotic strains she mentioned
Plus reviews from women describing MY EXACT LIFE:
"Lost my testosterone and couldn't get aroused even watching Magic Mike" (literally me)
"Insurance won't cover hormone therapy but they'll cover my husband's ED meds" (RAGE)
"Radiancy gave me back what menopause stole — I can actually FEEL things again" (please God let this be me)
========
$49 seemed insultingly cheap for something that could restore what both hormones used to protect.
Considering I'd already spent:
$300 on prescription creams
$500 on specialty lubes
$400 on probiotics that did nothing
$200 on coconut oil and "natural" remedies
$1,600 on doctor visits
What's another $49?
It arrived in a plain brown box.
(Thank God, because explaining "vaginal restoration pills" to my teenager would've ended me)
Two capsules.
Every morning.
That's it.
========
The Transformation Timeline:
Day 3: The burning during urination stopped.
Day 5: That post-sex onion smell… gone. pH normalizing.
Day 8: I wiped after peeing and felt… slippery? Natural moisture. Holy crap.
Day 12: Had sex without lube for the first time in two years. Didn't bleed. Didn't cry. Actually FELT arousal building.
Day 15: Got randomly turned on folding laundry. Haven't felt spontaneous arousal since Obama's first term.
Day 18: Wore a thong. (Had been in granny panties since 2019)
Day 21: My husband grabbed my ass while I was cooking and I didn't flinch. I pushed back. I WANTED him.
Day 28: I initiated sex. Me. At 10:30 PM. On a Tuesday. And I came.
========
Day 35: Went back to Dr. Chen for a follow-up.
She examined me and actually smiled...
"Your vaginal walls have regained elasticity. Moisture levels are normal. pH is 4.2 — perfect.
This is what I see in women on dual hormone therapy, but you did it nutritionally. You've supported the systems those hormones once protected."
I showed her the Radiancy bottle.
She nodded. "That's exactly what I hoped you'd find. You're rebuilding all three systems naturally."
========
Three months later, I'm a different person.
No, that's wrong.
I'm ME again.
The me who could get aroused from a look.
The me who got wet without a bottle of lube.
The me who could sit through a movie without burning.
The me who didn't smell like a Subway sandwich after sex.
The me who actually WANTED sex instead of enduring it.
The me whose clitoris remembered how to work.
========
Because here's what still makes me absolutely RAGE:
Women lose 50% of their testosterone by menopause.
FIFTY PERCENT.
This hormone controls:
- Sexual arousal and response
- Vaginal blood flow and tissue health
- Clitoral sensitivity (fun fact: more testosterone receptors there than almost anywhere)
- Energy, muscle, bone density
And insurance won't cover it for women.
A testosterone pellet costs $550 out of pocket.
That's $6,600 a year just to feel human again.
Meanwhile, men get testosterone covered in:
- Injections
- Gels
- Patches
- Pellets
- Creams
- Pills
- Nasal sprays
Plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... ALL covered.
But a woman who can't get aroused because she lost her testosterone?
A woman whose vagina tears because the tissues are starving?
A woman who wants her husband but her body won't respond?
"Here's some lube, sweetie."
I'M DONE WITH THIS CRAP. Seriously.
========
Listen, I spent two years and probably $3,000 trying to fix what hormone loss destroyed:
- Prescription creams that gave me hot flashes
- Antibiotics that destroyed my gut
- Probiotics that did nothing
- Coconut oil that caused infections
- $200 "medical-grade" lube that felt like pouring Elmer's glue in my vagina
- Therapy because maybe it was "all in my head"
- Acupuncture (desperation makes you try anything)
Then I found Radiancy which costs $49.
FORTY-NINE DOLLARS.
Less than a decent bra.
Less than one co-pay to another useless doctor.
Less than 1/10th of ONE testosterone pellet.
Less than what I spend on coffee in a month.
$6,600 a year for testosterone pellets? Or $49 for Radiancy?
Even my husband's MBA brain couldn't argue with that math.
========
The science is stupidly simple:
Testosterone and estrogen used to protect three things:
- Collagen production (testosterone for strength, estrogen for thickness)
- Moisture systems (testosterone for arousal wetness, estrogen for baseline moisture)
- Bacterial balance (estrogen for pH, which keeps good bacteria thriving)
Menopause kills your hormones.
Your hormones stop protecting these systems.
Everything falls apart.
Radiancy bypasses the hormones and feeds the systems directly.
Not with synthetic hormones...
Not with chemicals....
With the exact nutrients your tissues need to rebuild.
It's not magic. It's just biochemistry.

Jan 17, 2026 - Present
No one mentions you also lose the hormone that controls whether your clitoris works, whether you can get wet when you're turned on, and whether sex feels like anything at all.

"No, you need all three systems rebuilt simultaneously. Medical-grade collagen - especially Type V that both hormones used to stimulate. Hyaluronic acid in clinical doses to replace what estrogen maintained.
And specific probiotic strains that restore the pH that estrogen used to control."
She wrote on her prescription pad:
- Multi-collagen complex (must include Type V)
- Hyaluronic acid (30mg minimum)
- L. acidophilus, L. gasseri, L. fermentum
"Find something with all three. Together. That's how you restore what testosterone AND estrogen used to do."
========
I went home and fell down the Google rabbit hole.
Found a Reddit comment that stopped me cold:
"Without testosterone, women have osteoporosis, heart disease, zero energy, plus we can't get aroused even when we want sex desperately. Insurance STILL won't pay. But they pay for testosterone for men in 10 different ways, plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... Meanwhile I can't even get wet for my husband who I'm still crazy about."
She was right. And it broke my heart.
But then, in that same thread, dozens of women were raving about something called Radiancy.
"Felt like sandpaper even with lube. Now I actually get WET when aroused - like my body remembered how to respond again."
"The onion smell after sex? GONE in 2 weeks. pH is finally normal."
"First time I've had an orgasm in 3 years. Thought that part of me was dead."
========
I checked the ingredients against Dr. Chen's list.
Holy sh*t. It had everything:
- Five types of medical-grade collagen (including Type V)
- 30mg hyaluronic acid (exactly what she said)
- All three probiotic strains she mentioned
Plus reviews from women describing MY EXACT LIFE:
"Lost my testosterone and couldn't get aroused even watching Magic Mike" (literally me)
"Insurance won't cover hormone therapy but they'll cover my husband's ED meds" (RAGE)
"Radiancy gave me back what menopause stole — I can actually FEEL things again" (please God let this be me)
========
$49 seemed insultingly cheap for something that could restore what both hormones used to protect.
Considering I'd already spent:
$300 on prescription creams
$500 on specialty lubes
$400 on probiotics that did nothing
$200 on coconut oil and "natural" remedies
$1,600 on doctor visits
What's another $49?
It arrived in a plain brown box.
(Thank God, because explaining "vaginal restoration pills" to my teenager would've ended me)
Two capsules.
Every morning.
That's it.
========
The Transformation Timeline:
Day 3: The burning during urination stopped.
Day 5: That post-sex onion smell… gone. pH normalizing.
Day 8: I wiped after peeing and felt… slippery? Natural moisture. Holy crap.
Day 12: Had sex without lube for the first time in two years. Didn't bleed. Didn't cry. Actually FELT arousal building.
Day 15: Got randomly turned on folding laundry. Haven't felt spontaneous arousal since Obama's first term.
Day 18: Wore a thong. (Had been in granny panties since 2019)
Day 21: My husband grabbed my ass while I was cooking and I didn't flinch. I pushed back. I WANTED him.
Day 28: I initiated sex. Me. At 10:30 PM. On a Tuesday. And I came.
========
Day 35: Went back to Dr. Chen for a follow-up.
She examined me and actually smiled...
"Your vaginal walls have regained elasticity. Moisture levels are normal. pH is 4.2 — perfect.
This is what I see in women on dual hormone therapy, but you did it nutritionally. You've supported the systems those hormones once protected."
I showed her the Radiancy bottle.
She nodded. "That's exactly what I hoped you'd find. You're rebuilding all three systems naturally."
========
Three months later, I'm a different person.
No, that's wrong.
I'm ME again.
The me who could get aroused from a look.
The me who got wet without a bottle of lube.
The me who could sit through a movie without burning.
The me who didn't smell like a Subway sandwich after sex.
The me who actually WANTED sex instead of enduring it.
The me whose clitoris remembered how to work.
========
Because here's what still makes me absolutely RAGE:
Women lose 50% of their testosterone by menopause.
FIFTY PERCENT.
This hormone controls:
- Sexual arousal and response
- Vaginal blood flow and tissue health
- Clitoral sensitivity (fun fact: more testosterone receptors there than almost anywhere)
- Energy, muscle, bone density
And insurance won't cover it for women.
A testosterone pellet costs $550 out of pocket.
That's $6,600 a year just to feel human again.
Meanwhile, men get testosterone covered in:
- Injections
- Gels
- Patches
- Pellets
- Creams
- Pills
- Nasal sprays
Plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... ALL covered.
But a woman who can't get aroused because she lost her testosterone?
A woman whose vagina tears because the tissues are starving?
A woman who wants her husband but her body won't respond?
"Here's some lube, sweetie."
I'M DONE WITH THIS CRAP. Seriously.
========
Listen, I spent two years and probably $3,000 trying to fix what hormone loss destroyed:
- Prescription creams that gave me hot flashes
- Antibiotics that destroyed my gut
- Probiotics that did nothing
- Coconut oil that caused infections
- $200 "medical-grade" lube that felt like pouring Elmer's glue in my vagina
- Therapy because maybe it was "all in my head"
- Acupuncture (desperation makes you try anything)
Then I found Radiancy which costs $49.
FORTY-NINE DOLLARS.
Less than a decent bra.
Less than one co-pay to another useless doctor.
Less than 1/10th of ONE testosterone pellet.
Less than what I spend on coffee in a month.
$6,600 a year for testosterone pellets? Or $49 for Radiancy?
Even my husband's MBA brain couldn't argue with that math.
========
The science is stupidly simple:
Testosterone and estrogen used to protect three things:
- Collagen production (testosterone for strength, estrogen for thickness)
- Moisture systems (testosterone for arousal wetness, estrogen for baseline moisture)
- Bacterial balance (estrogen for pH, which keeps good bacteria thriving)
Menopause kills your hormones.
Your hormones stop protecting these systems.
Everything falls apart.
Radiancy bypasses the hormones and feeds the systems directly.
Not with synthetic hormones...
Not with chemicals....
With the exact nutrients your tissues need to rebuild.
It's not magic. It's just biochemistry.

Jan 16, 2026 - Present
At 69, I had to choose between sex with my husband or avoiding my sixth UTI this year.
I couldn’t have both.
The dryness was so bad that every time we had sex, I’d spend the next three days:
Burning so badly I’d cry on the toilet
Downing cranberry juice like an alcoholic
Avoiding my husband’s eyes because I could see the hurt in them
My pharmacist knew my order by heart: “Another round of antibiotics, hon?”
My gynecologist was “out of ideas.”
My husband stopped initiating because he knew what that look on my face meant.
The look that said: “I want to, but my body is going to punish me for it.”
========
My breaking point came at my granddaughter’s college graduation.
Sitting in that auditorium, surrounded by other proud parents.
I should’ve been watching her walk across that stage.
Instead, I was googling “urgent care near me” because I could feel another UTI starting.
That raw, scraping burn.
The desperate urge to pee every two minutes.
I crossed my legs. Uncrossed them. Shifted in my seat.
My husband whispered, “You okay?”
I lied and said yes.
But I wasn’t okay.
I was 68 years old, watching my granddaughter graduate magna cum laude, and all I could think about was the fire between my legs.
I missed her name being called.
I missed the moment I’d waited 22 years for.
Because my vagina had declared war on my body.
========
That night, I sat in the bathtub and cried.
Not from the UTI.
From the realization that I’d let this steal one of the most important moments of my life.
My granddaughter’s graduation.
My marriage.
My ability to feel like a woman instead of a broken body.
I looked at my husband sleeping in our bed and thought:
“Poor guys has probably given up on me completely...”
========
The next morning, I made an appointment with my sixth gynecologist.
Dr. Chen.
My friend Lauren from book club had insisted: “She’s different. She actually listens.”
I’d heard that before.
But I was desperate.
========
When Dr. Chen walked into the exam room, she didn’t open her computer.
She pulled up a chair.
Sat down.
And said: “Tell me everything.”
So I did.
I told her about:
The six UTIs this year alone
The dryness so severe that lube just sat on top like oil on water
The tearing and bleeding after sex
The four gynecologists who’d told me to “use more lube” or “try to relax”
The antibiotics that were destroying my gut
The look on my husband’s face when I’d flinch away from his touch
When I finished, I expected her to sigh and reach for her prescription pad.
Instead, she picked up a marker.
========
She drew three overlapping circles on the exam table paper.
“Your vagina isn’t broken,” she said. “It’s starving. And that’s why you keep getting UTIs.”
She tapped the paper.
“Picture your vagina as a rainforest that’s turning into a desert. Three catastrophic droughts happening at once — and each one is making your UTI problem worse.”
Drought #1: The Collagen Collapse:
“When your body stops making collagen, your vaginal walls go from thick and elastic to paper-thin.
That’s why sex causes micro-tears.
And those tears? They’re the perfect entry point for bacteria.
Every time you have sex, you’re essentially creating tiny doorways for E. coli to march straight into your bladder.”
Drought #2: The Moisture Apocalypse:
“Hyaluronic acid - the water-holding molecule in your tissues - it’s evaporating.
Your vagina can’t retain moisture anymore.
That dryness creates friction.
Friction creates inflammation.
And inflammation makes you incredibly vulnerable to bacterial infections.
You’re basically creating the perfect breeding ground for UTIs.”
Drought #3: The Bacterial Genocide:
“Your good bacteria - the Lactobacillus strains that keep your vaginal pH at 4.5 and produce hydrogen peroxide to kill bad bacteria - they’re dying off.
What’s left?
An environment where E. coli thrives.
Without your protective bacteria, every time bacteria gets pushed toward your urethra during sex, there’s nothing there to stop it.”
She circled where all three overlapped.
“This is why the UTIs keep coming back.
You’re not treating the root cause.
You’re just killing the bacteria with antibiotics - and then your devastated vaginal microbiome creates the perfect conditions for the next infection.”
========
I stared at that diagram.
For the first time in two years, someone was explaining why my body kept betraying me.
Not just saying “drink cranberry juice.”
Not just handing me another prescription.
Actually explaining the mechanism.
“So what do I do?” I asked.
========
She leaned back.
“I could give you estrogen cream. Might help with moisture, but it won’t rebuild your collagen or restore your bacterial protection.
Plus, with your family history, hormone therapy is risky.
I could keep prescribing antibiotics.
But you’ve had six rounds this year alone.
Your gut microbiome is wrecked.
Your immune system is compromised.
And you’re one more round away from developing antibiotic resistance.
Here’s what I tell my patients who actually want to stop the cycle…”
She paused.
“The women who break free from chronic UTIs do something different.
They rebuild all three systems simultaneously: the structural support, the moisture barrier, and the bacterial defense.
Not with prescriptions...
With targeted nutrition that gives your body what it needs to heal itself.”
========
She wrote on her prescription pad:
- Multi-collagen complex (must include Type V for vaginal tissue)
- Hyaluronic acid (minimum 30mg for tissue hydration)
- L. acidophilus, L. gasseri, L. fermentum (for bacterial protection)
“Find something with all three. Together. Not separately.
When your tissues are strong, moist, and protected by good bacteria, the UTIs stop.
Not because you’re killing bacteria with antibiotics.
But because your body is strong enough to prevent them in the first place.”
========
I went home and started searching.
Most supplements had one ingredient. Maybe two.
Nothing had all three.
I was about to give up when I found a Reddit thread buried deep in a women’s health forum.
The kind of thread where women use throwaway accounts and tell the truth.
Dozens of comments.
All about the same thing: Radiancy.
“Had 8 UTIs in one year. Haven’t had one in 6 months since starting this.”
“The dryness made sex impossible. Now we don’t even need lube.”
“My doctor couldn’t figure out why I kept getting infections. This fixed it in 3 weeks.”
========
I pulled up the ingredients and checked them against Dr. Chen’s list:
✓ Five types of medical-grade collagen - including Type V for vaginal tissue
✓ 30mg hyaluronic acid — the exact dose she recommended
✓ All three Lactobacillus strains - L. acidophilus, L. gasseri, L. fermentum
Holy crap.
It was all there.
Every single thing she told me to find.
In one formula.
========
Then I read the reviews.
The raw, TMI, desperate ones.
“I was getting UTIs after every time we had sex. Doctor had no answers. This changed everything.”
“Six months without a UTI. I forgot what it felt like to not be afraid of sex.”
“My marriage was falling apart because I kept rejecting my husband. Now we’re closer than we’ve been in years.”
I started crying reading them.
Because they were describing my life.
========
I’d already spent a fortune trying to fix this:
$300 on prescription creams
$400 on probiotics that did nothing
$600 on antibiotics and doctor visits
$200 on cranberry supplements, D-mannose, every “natural UTI remedy” on Amazon
$500 on specialty lubes
Over $2,000 spent.
Six UTIs.
Zero solutions.
$49 for something that could actually break the cycle?
I thought: what do I have to lose besides another $49 and another UTI?
I ordered it.
========
It arrived in a plain brown box.
Two capsules in the morning. Two at night.
I didn’t tell my husband.
I’d gotten his hopes up too many times.
Promised him “this will work” with every new treatment.
And disappointed him every single time.
========
Day 3: The constant urge to pee stopped.
I realized I’d been holding my bladder tensed for months... waiting for the burn.
It didn’t come.
Day 5: We had sex.
I held my breath afterward, waiting for the familiar sting.
Nothing.
Day 8: Still no UTI.
I kept checking. Kept waiting for the burn to start.
It never did.
Day 12: We had sex again.
Still no UTI.
I actually cried in the shower after.
Not from pain.
From disbelief that my body wasn’t punishing me.
Day 21: I felt moisture when I wiped.
Real moisture.
Not lube sitting on top.
My body was producing its own lubrication again.
Day 28: I initiated sex.
For the first time in over 20 years.
And I didn’t spend the next three days terrified of peeing.
========
Three months later, I went back to Dr. Chen.
“How many UTIs?” she asked.
“Zero,” I said.
She examined me.
“Your vaginal walls have regained thickness and elasticity.
You’re producing natural lubrication.
pH is 4.2 - perfect.
Your protective bacteria are thriving.”
She smiled.
“What did you find?”
I pulled out the Radiancy bottle.
“That’s exactly the type of solution I hoped you’d find.”
========
Six months later, I haven’t had a single UTI.
Not one.
No antibiotics.
No cranberry juice rituals.
No crying on the toilet.
No choosing between my marriage and my body.
I can have sex without fear.
I can sit through my grandson’s soccer games without planning my escape route to the bathroom.
I can go on vacation without packing antibiotics “just in case.”
I got my life back.
Not just my sex life.
My entire life.
========
Why Nobody Talks About This:
Here’s what makes me furious:
Chronic UTIs affect 20–30% of women who’ve had one UTI.
That’s MILLIONS of women.
And what’s the standard medical protocol?
More antibiotics.
More cranberry juice.
More “maybe you’re not wiping correctly.”
If this happened to men - if sex caused them painful, recurring infections - there would be national campaigns.
Research funding.
Prevention protocols.
But for women?
We get antibiotics until we develop resistance.
And then we get told to “avoid sex.”
FORGET THAT.
========
Because here’s what they don’t tell you:
The UTIs aren’t the problem.
The UTIs are the symptom.
The problem is that your vaginal tissue is too dry, too thin, and too unprotected.
Fix those three things, and the UTIs stop.
Your vagina needs:
- Collagen - to rebuild thick, resilient tissue that doesn’t tear
- Hyaluronic acid - to retain moisture and eliminate friction
- Lactobacillus bacteria - to create a protective barrier against bad bacteria
Menopause destroys all three.
Radiancy replaces all three.
Not with hormones.
Not with endless antibiotics.
With the exact nutrients your body needs to protect itself.

Jan 16, 2026 - Present
I'd seen five doctors for the dryness, the smell after sex, and zero desire.
Every single one said "try more foreplay."
Then Dr. Chen picked up a marker and drew something on the exam table paper.
"This," she said, "is the hormone nobody talks about.
And the one all women lose 50% of by 45.
========
At 35, I thought occasional dryness was annoying.
At 45?
My vagina felt like someone had replaced my natural moisture with broken glass.
Sex wasn't just uncomfortable... it was a special kind of torture that made me understand why some women just give up.
========
It was the smell after sex that hit me first.
Not the usual smell.
Something… wrong.
Like onions mixed with copper pennies.
I'd rush to the bathroom immediately after, desperate to shower.
My husband never said anything, but I knew he noticed.
How could he not?
The smell would linger for hours.
I started avoiding sex just to avoid that smell.
========
Then came the infections...
UTI in January. Yeast in February. BV in March.
My pharmacy knew me by name.
The pharmacist started giving me that sympathy look reserved for people with chronic conditions.
"Another round of antibiotics, hon?"
Another round.
Another failure.
Another month of my vagina declaring war on my body.
========
And the dryness?
One woman online described it perfectly:
"It's like my vagina is the Sahara and no amount of lube can make it an oasis."
That's exactly it.
Lube would sit on top like oil on water.
Nothing absorbed.
Nothing helped.
Just… dry.
========
My breaking point came at my daughter's college graduation.
Sitting in that auditorium, surrounded by other proud parents.
I felt the burning start.
That familiar raw, scraping sensation that meant another UTI was brewing.
I shifted in my seat.
Crossed my legs.
Uncrossed them.
My husband whispered, "You okay?"
No.
I wasn't okay.
I was 47 years old, watching my daughter graduate magna cum laude, and all I could think about was the fire between my legs.
========
The next morning, I called my sixth gynecologist...
"I can squeeze you in Thursday at 3:45."
Keep in mind, I'd already seen:
Dr. Martin ("Just use more lube")
Dr. Phillips ("Try coconut oil")
Dr. Ramirez ("It's stress-related")
Dr. Kim ("Part of natural aging")
Dr. Foster ("Have you considered antidepressants?")
But Lauren from book club had insisted:
"You HAVE to see Dr. Chen. She's different."
========
Dr. Chen didn't even look at her computer for the first ten minutes.
She just listened.
When I finished my whole pathetic story, she pulled out a marker and started drawing on the exam table paper.
"Your vagina isn't broken. It's being sabotaged by a hormone no one talks about."
She wrote one word in big letters: TESTOSTERONE
"Everyone obsesses over estrogen during menopause. But you know what they don't tell you? Women lose 50% of their testosterone by menopause. FIFTY PERCENT."
She drew what looked like a plant wilting...
"Think of testosterone like WD-40 for your vagina. It keeps everything moving, flowing, responding. Without it? Everything seizes up and starts breaking down.
You know what testosterone actually does down there?
It's like plant food for arousal — Your clitoris has more testosterone receptors than almost any other part of your body. No wonder orgasms become extinct after 45.
It controls blood flow — Without it, your tissues literally starve for oxygen. They become thin, fragile, easy to tear.
It triggers arousal lubrication — That natural wetness when you're turned on? Testosterone makes that happen. Without it, even when your mind wants sex, your body can't respond."
========
She drew three overlapping circles.
"But here's the thing — it's not just testosterone. You're losing estrogen too. Together, they create a triple disaster:
DISASTER #1: The Collagen Collapse:
Both hormones signal collagen production. Without them, your vaginal walls go from thick rubber band to wet tissue paper. That's why you tear and bleed. Testosterone specifically maintains tissue strength and elasticity.
DISASTER #2: The Moisture Apocalypse:
Testosterone controls arousal moisture - that slippery wetness when you're turned on. Estrogen controls baseline moisture and the hyaluronic acid that holds water in your tissues. Lose both? You literally cannot get wet OR stay moist. It's like your vagina forgot how to vagina.
DISASTER #3: The Bacterial Genocide:
This one's mainly estrogen's fault. When estrogen drops, your pH goes from a healthy acidic 4.5 to alkaline. Your good bacteria die off. What thrives instead? The bacteria that cause infections and that onion-in-a-gym-sock smell."
She circled where all three overlapped...
"THIS is where you live now. Your testosterone can't trigger arousal. Your estrogen can't maintain moisture or pH. Everything's falling apart at once."
========
"So give me both hormones," I begged.
She sighed.
"I could prescribe testosterone cream. But insurance won't cover it. That's $550 per pellet, out of pocket. They'll pay for men's testosterone in seven different forms, but for women? Nothing.
I could add estrogen cream. Might help with baseline moisture and pH but won't restore arousal response or rebuild collagen. Plus your family history makes it risky.
The truth is…"
She paused, choosing her words carefully...
"The women who get better are the ones who bypass the hormone replacement altogether...
They're using targeted nutrition to restore what BOTH hormones used to protect: the collagen that testosterone and estrogen maintained, the moisture systems, and the bacterial balance.
Not with prescriptions, but with the exact nutrients your tissues need."
========
"Like what? Another probiotic?"
"No, you need all three systems rebuilt simultaneously. Medical-grade collagen - especially Type V that both hormones used to stimulate. Hyaluronic acid in clinical doses to replace what estrogen maintained.
And specific probiotic strains that restore the pH that estrogen used to control."
She wrote on her prescription pad:
Multi-collagen complex (must include Type V)
Hyaluronic acid (30mg minimum)
L. acidophilus, L. gasseri, L. fermentum
"Find something with all three. Together. That's how you restore what testosterone AND estrogen used to do."
========
I went home and fell down the Google rabbit hole.
Found a Reddit comment that stopped me cold:
"Without testosterone, women have osteoporosis, heart disease, zero energy, plus we can't get aroused even when we want sex desperately. Insurance STILL won't pay. But they pay for testosterone for men in 10 different ways, plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... Meanwhile I can't even get wet for my husband who I'm still crazy about."
She was right. And it broke my heart.
But then, in that same thread, dozens of women were raving about something called Radiancy.
"Felt like sandpaper even with lube. Now I actually get WET when aroused - like my body remembered how to respond again."
"The onion smell after sex? GONE in 2 weeks. pH is finally normal."
"First time I've had an orgasm in 3 years. Thought that part of me was dead."
========
I checked the ingredients against Dr. Chen's list.
Holy sh*t. It had everything:
Five types of medical-grade collagen (including Type V)
30mg hyaluronic acid (exactly what she said)
All three probiotic strains she mentioned
Plus reviews from women describing MY EXACT LIFE:
"Lost my testosterone and couldn't get aroused even watching Magic Mike" (literally me)
"Insurance won't cover hormone therapy but they'll cover my husband's ED meds" (RAGE)
"Radiancy gave me back what menopause stole — I can actually FEEL things again" (please God let this be me)
========
$49 seemed insultingly cheap for something that could restore what both hormones used to protect.
Considering I'd already spent:
$300 on prescription creams
$500 on specialty lubes
$400 on probiotics that did nothing
$200 on coconut oil and "natural" remedies
$1,600 on doctor visits
What's another $49?
It arrived in a plain brown box.
(Thank God, because explaining "vaginal restoration pills" to my teenager would've ended me)
Two capsules.
Every morning.
That's it.
========
The Transformation Timeline:
Day 3: The burning during urination stopped.
Day 5: That post-sex onion smell… gone. pH normalizing.
Day 8: I wiped after peeing and felt… slippery? Natural moisture. Holy crap.
Day 12: Had sex without lube for the first time in two years. Didn't bleed. Didn't cry. Actually FELT arousal building.
Day 15: Got randomly turned on folding laundry. Haven't felt spontaneous arousal since Obama's first term.
Day 18: Wore a thong. (Had been in granny panties since 2019)
Day 21: My husband grabbed my ass while I was cooking and I didn't flinch. I pushed back. I WANTED him.
Day 28: I initiated sex. Me. At 10:30 PM. On a Tuesday. And I came.
========
Day 35: Went back to Dr. Chen for a follow-up.
She examined me and actually smiled...
"Your vaginal walls have regained elasticity. Moisture levels are normal. pH is 4.2 — perfect.
This is what I see in women on dual hormone therapy, but you did it nutritionally. You've supported the systems those hormones once protected."
I showed her the Radiancy bottle.
She nodded. "That's exactly what I hoped you'd find. You're rebuilding all three systems naturally."
========
Three months later, I'm a different person.
No, that's wrong.
I'm ME again.
The me who could get aroused from a look.
The me who got wet without a bottle of lube.
The me who could sit through a movie without burning.
The me who didn't smell like a Subway sandwich after sex.
The me who actually WANTED sex instead of enduring it.
The me whose clitoris remembered how to work.
========
Because here's what still makes me absolutely RAGE:
Women lose 50% of their testosterone by menopause.
FIFTY PERCENT.
This hormone controls:
Sexual arousal and response
Vaginal blood flow and tissue health
Clitoral sensitivity (fun fact: more testosterone receptors there than almost anywhere)
Energy, muscle, bone density
And insurance won't cover it for women.
A testosterone pellet costs $550 out of pocket.
That's $6,600 a year just to feel human again.
Meanwhile, men get testosterone covered in:
Injections
Gels
Patches
Pellets
Creams
Pills
Nasal sprays
Plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... ALL covered.
But a woman who can't get aroused because she lost her testosterone?
A woman whose vagina tears because the tissues are starving?
A woman who wants her husband but her body won't respond?
"Here's some lube, sweetie."
I'M DONE WITH THIS CRAP. Seriously.
========
Listen, I spent two years and probably $3,000 trying to fix what hormone loss destroyed:
Prescription creams that gave me hot flashes
Antibiotics that destroyed my gut
Probiotics that did nothing
Coconut oil that caused infections
$200 "medical-grade" lube that felt like pouring Elmer's glue in my vagina
Therapy because maybe it was "all in my head"
Acupuncture (desperation makes you try anything)
Then I found Radiancy which costs $49.
FORTY-NINE DOLLARS.
Less than a decent bra.
Less than one co-pay to another useless doctor.
Less than 1/10th of ONE testosterone pellet.
Less than what I spend on coffee in a month.
$6,600 a year for testosterone pellets? Or $49 for Radiancy?
Even my husband's MBA brain couldn't argue with that math.
========
The science is stupidly simple:
Testosterone and estrogen used to protect three things:
Collagen production (testosterone for strength, estrogen for thickness)
Moisture systems (testosterone for arousal wetness, estrogen for baseline moisture)
Bacterial balance (estrogen for pH, which keeps good bacteria thriving)
Menopause kills your hormones.
Your hormones stop protecting these systems.
Everything falls apart.
Radiancy bypasses the hormones and feeds the systems directly.
Not with synthetic hormones...
Not with chemicals....
With the exact nutrients your tissues need to rebuild.
It's not magic. It's just biochemistry.
========
Because here’s the thing.
Dr. Chen didn’t “diagnose” me in 30 seconds and shove a tube of lube across the table.
She asked specific questions that actually mattered:
Is the dryness constant… or only during sex?
Is there burning after peeing?
Is odor showing up after sex?
Do infections keep cycling no matter what you take?
Does your body want sex but can’t physically respond?
Those answers told her exactly which of the 3 systems were failing first — collagen, moisture, or bacterial balance.
And that’s why this works…
This 60-second quiz asks the same questions Dr. Chen asked me.
Not “are you stressed?”
Not “have you tried foreplay?”
Real questions about what’s actually happening inside your tissue.
Answer honestly, and it’ll tell you if Radiancy’s three-system approach (collagen + moisture + bacteria) is built for YOUR specific symptoms.

Both hormones signal collagen production. Without them, your vaginal walls go from thick rubber band to wet tissue paper. That's why you tear and bleed. Testosterone specifically maintains tissue strength and elasticity.
DISASTER #2: The Moisture Apocalypse:
Testosterone controls arousal moisture - that slippery wetness when you're turned on. Estrogen controls baseline moisture and the hyaluronic acid that holds water in your tissues. Lose both? You literally cannot get wet OR stay moist. It's like your vagina forgot how to vagina.
DISASTER #3: The Bacterial Genocide:
This one's mainly estrogen's fault. When estrogen drops, your pH goes from a healthy acidic 4.5 to alkaline. Your good bacteria die off. What thrives instead? The bacteria that cause infections and that onion-in-a-gym-sock smell."
She circled where all three overlapped...
"THIS is where you live now. Your testosterone can't trigger arousal. Your estrogen can't maintain moisture or pH. Everything's falling apart at once."
========
"So give me both hormones," I begged.
She sighed.
"I could prescribe testosterone cream. But insurance won't cover it. That's $550 per pellet, out of pocket. They'll pay for men's testosterone in seven different forms, but for women? Nothing.
I could add estrogen cream. Might help with baseline moisture and pH but won't restore arousal response or rebuild collagen. Plus your family history makes it risky.
The truth is…"
She paused, choosing her words carefully...
"The women who get better are the ones who bypass the hormone replacement altogether...
They're using targeted nutrition to restore what BOTH hormones used to protect: the collagen that testosterone and estrogen maintained, the moisture systems, and the bacterial balance.
Not with prescriptions, but with the exact nutrients your tissues need."
========
"Like what? Another probiotic?"
"No, you need all three systems rebuilt simultaneously. Medical-grade collagen - especially Type V that both hormones used to stimulate. Hyaluronic acid in clinical doses to replace what estrogen maintained.
And specific probiotic strains that restore the pH that estrogen used to control."
She wrote on her prescription pad:
Multi-collagen complex (must include Type V)
Hyaluronic acid (30mg minimum)
L. acidophilus, L. gasseri, L. fermentum
"Find something with all three. Together. That's how you restore what testosterone AND estrogen used to do."
========
I went home and fell down the Google rabbit hole.
Found a Reddit comment that stopped me cold:
"Without testosterone, women have osteoporosis, heart disease, zero energy, plus we can't get aroused even when we want sex desperately. Insurance STILL won't pay. But they pay for testosterone for men in 10 different ways, plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... Meanwhile I can't even get wet for my husband who I'm still crazy about."
She was right. And it broke my heart.
But then, in that same thread, dozens of women were raving about something called Radiancy.
"Felt like sandpaper even with lube. Now I actually get WET when aroused - like my body remembered how to respond again."
"The onion smell after sex? GONE in 2 weeks. pH is finally normal."
"First time I've had an orgasm in 3 years. Thought that part of me was dead."
========
I checked the ingredients against Dr. Chen's list.
Holy sh*t. It had everything:
Five types of medical-grade collagen (including Type V)
30mg hyaluronic acid (exactly what she said)
All three probiotic strains she mentioned
Plus reviews from women describing MY EXACT LIFE:
"Lost my testosterone and couldn't get aroused even watching Magic Mike" (literally me)
"Insurance won't cover hormone therapy but they'll cover my husband's ED meds" (RAGE)
"Radiancy gave me back what menopause stole — I can actually FEEL things again" (please God let this be me)
========
$49 seemed insultingly cheap for something that could restore what both hormones used to protect.
Considering I'd already spent:
$300 on prescription creams
$500 on specialty lubes
$400 on probiotics that did nothing
$200 on coconut oil and "natural" remedies
$1,600 on doctor visits
What's another $49?
It arrived in a plain brown box.
(Thank God, because explaining "vaginal restoration pills" to my teenager would've ended me)
Two capsules.
Every morning.
That's it.
========
The Transformation Timeline:
Day 3: The burning during urination stopped.
Day 5: That post-sex onion smell… gone. pH normalizing.
Day 8: I wiped after peeing and felt… slippery? Natural moisture. Holy crap.
Day 12: Had sex without lube for the first time in two years. Didn't bleed. Didn't cry. Actually FELT arousal building.
Day 15: Got randomly turned on folding laundry. Haven't felt spontaneous arousal since Obama's first term.
Day 18: Wore a thong. (Had been in granny panties since 2019)
Day 21: My husband grabbed my ass while I was cooking and I didn't flinch. I pushed back. I WANTED him.
Day 28: I initiated sex. Me. At 10:30 PM. On a Tuesday. And I came.
========
Day 35: Went back to Dr. Chen for a follow-up.
She examined me and actually smiled...
"Your vaginal walls have regained elasticity. Moisture levels are normal. pH is 4.2 — perfect.
This is what I see in women on dual hormone therapy, but you did it nutritionally. You've supported the systems those hormones once protected."
I showed her the Radiancy bottle.
She nodded. "That's exactly what I hoped you'd find. You're rebuilding all three systems naturally."
========
Three months later, I'm a different person.
No, that's wrong.
I'm ME again.
The me who could get aroused from a look.
The me who got wet without a bottle of lube.
The me who could sit through a movie without burning.
The me who didn't smell like a Subway sandwich after sex.
The me who actually WANTED sex instead of enduring it.
The me whose clitoris remembered how to work.
========
Because here's what still makes me absolutely RAGE:
Women lose 50% of their testosterone by menopause.
FIFTY PERCENT.
This hormone controls:
Sexual arousal and response
Vaginal blood flow and tissue health
Clitoral sensitivity (fun fact: more testosterone receptors there than almost anywhere)
Energy, muscle, bone density
And insurance won't cover it for women.
A testosterone pellet costs $550 out of pocket.
That's $6,600 a year just to feel human again.
Meanwhile, men get testosterone covered in:
Injections
Gels
Patches
Pellets
Creams
Pills
Nasal sprays
Plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... ALL covered.
But a woman who can't get aroused because she lost her testosterone?
A woman whose vagina tears because the tissues are starving?
A woman who wants her husband but her body won't respond?
"Here's some lube, sweetie."
I'M DONE WITH THIS CRAP. Seriously.
========
Listen, I spent two years and probably $3,000 trying to fix what hormone loss destroyed:
Prescription creams that gave me hot flashes
Antibiotics that destroyed my gut
Probiotics that did nothing
Coconut oil that caused infections
$200 "medical-grade" lube that felt like pouring Elmer's glue in my vagina
Therapy because maybe it was "all in my head"
Acupuncture (desperation makes you try anything)
Then I found Radiancy which costs $49.
FORTY-NINE DOLLARS.
Less than a decent bra.
Less than one co-pay to another useless doctor.
Less than 1/10th of ONE testosterone pellet.
Less than what I spend on coffee in a month.
$6,600 a year for testosterone pellets? Or $49 for Radiancy?
Even my husband's MBA brain couldn't argue with that math.
========
The science is stupidly simple:
Testosterone and estrogen used to protect three things:
Collagen production (testosterone for strength, estrogen for thickness)
Moisture systems (testosterone for arousal wetness, estrogen for baseline moisture)
Bacterial balance (estrogen for pH, which keeps good bacteria thriving)
Menopause kills your hormones.
Your hormones stop protecting these systems.
Everything falls apart.
Radiancy bypasses the hormones and feeds the systems directly.
Not with synthetic hormones...
Not with chemicals....
With the exact nutrients your tissues need to rebuild.
It's not magic. It's just biochemistry.
========
Because here’s the thing.
Dr. Chen didn’t “diagnose” me in 30 seconds and shove a tube of lube across the table.
She asked specific questions that actually mattered:
Is the dryness constant… or only during sex?
Is there burning after peeing?
Is odor showing up after sex?
Do infections keep cycling no matter what you take?
Does your body want sex but can’t physically respond?
Those answers told her exactly which of the 3 systems were failing first — collagen, moisture, or bacterial balance.
And that’s why this works…
This 60-second quiz asks the same questions Dr. Chen asked me.
Not “are you stressed?”
Not “have you tried foreplay?”
Real questions about what’s actually happening inside your tissue.
Answer honestly, and it’ll tell you if Radiancy’s three-system approach (collagen + moisture + bacteria) is built for YOUR specific symptoms.

Every single one said "try more foreplay."
Then Dr. Chen picked up a marker and drew something on the exam table paper.
"This," she said, "is the hormone nobody talks about.
And the one all women lose 50% of by 45.
========
At 35, I thought occasional dryness was annoying.
At 45?
My vagina felt like someone had replaced my natural moisture with broken glass.
Sex wasn't just uncomfortable... it was a special kind of torture that made me understand why some women just give up.
========
It was the smell after sex that hit me first.
Not the usual smell.
Something… wrong.
Like onions mixed with copper pennies.
I'd rush to the bathroom immediately after, desperate to shower.
My husband never said anything, but I knew he noticed.
How could he not?
The smell would linger for hours.
I started avoiding sex just to avoid that smell.
========
Then came the infections...
UTI in January. Yeast in February. BV in March.
My pharmacy knew me by name.
The pharmacist started giving me that sympathy look reserved for people with chronic conditions.
"Another round of antibiotics, hon?"
Another round.
Another failure.
Another month of my vagina declaring war on my body.
========
And the dryness?
One woman online described it perfectly:
"It's like my vagina is the Sahara and no amount of lube can make it an oasis."
That's exactly it.
Lube would sit on top like oil on water.
Nothing absorbed.
Nothing helped.
Just… dry.
========
My breaking point came at my daughter's college graduation.
Sitting in that auditorium, surrounded by other proud parents.
I felt the burning start.
That familiar raw, scraping sensation that meant another UTI was brewing.
I shifted in my seat.
Crossed my legs.
Uncrossed them.
My husband whispered, "You okay?"
No.
I wasn't okay.
I was 47 years old, watching my daughter graduate magna cum laude, and all I could think about was the fire between my legs.
========
The next morning, I called my sixth gynecologist...
"I can squeeze you in Thursday at 3:45."
Keep in mind, I'd already seen:
Dr. Martin ("Just use more lube")
Dr. Phillips ("Try coconut oil")
Dr. Ramirez ("It's stress-related")
Dr. Kim ("Part of natural aging")
Dr. Foster ("Have you considered antidepressants?")
But Lauren from book club had insisted:
"You HAVE to see Dr. Chen. She's different."
========
Dr. Chen didn't even look at her computer for the first ten minutes.
She just listened.
When I finished my whole pathetic story, she pulled out a marker and started drawing on the exam table paper.
"Your vagina isn't broken. It's being sabotaged by a hormone no one talks about."
She wrote one word in big letters: TESTOSTERONE
"Everyone obsesses over estrogen during menopause. But you know what they don't tell you? Women lose 50% of their testosterone by menopause. FIFTY PERCENT."
She drew what looked like a plant wilting...
"Think of testosterone like WD-40 for your vagina. It keeps everything moving, flowing, responding. Without it? Everything seizes up and starts breaking down.
You know what testosterone actually does down there?
It's like plant food for arousal — Your clitoris has more testosterone receptors than almost any other part of your body. No wonder orgasms become extinct after 45.
It controls blood flow — Without it, your tissues literally starve for oxygen. They become thin, fragile, easy to tear.
It triggers arousal lubrication — That natural wetness when you're turned on? Testosterone makes that happen. Without it, even when your mind wants sex, your body can't respond."
========
She drew three overlapping circles.
"But here's the thing — it's not just testosterone. You're losing estrogen too. Together, they create a triple disaster:

What's another $49?
It arrived in a plain brown box.
(Thank God, because explaining "vaginal restoration pills" to my teenager would've ended me)
Two capsules.
Every morning.
That's it.
========
The Transformation Timeline:
Day 3: The burning during urination stopped.
Day 5: That post-sex onion smell… gone. pH normalizing.
Day 8: I wiped after peeing and felt… slippery? Natural moisture. Holy crap.
Day 12: Had sex without lube for the first time in two years. Didn't bleed. Didn't cry. Actually FELT arousal building.
Day 15: Got randomly turned on folding laundry. Haven't felt spontaneous arousal since Obama's first term.
Day 18: Wore a thong. (Had been in granny panties since 2019)
Day 21: My husband grabbed my ass while I was cooking and I didn't flinch. I pushed back. I WANTED him.
Day 28: I initiated sex. Me. At 10:30 PM. On a Tuesday. And I came.
========
Day 35: Went back to Dr. Chen for a follow-up.
She examined me and actually smiled...
"Your vaginal walls have regained elasticity. Moisture levels are normal. pH is 4.2 — perfect.
This is what I see in women on dual hormone therapy, but you did it nutritionally. You've supported the systems those hormones once protected."
I showed her the Radiancy bottle.
She nodded. "That's exactly what I hoped you'd find. You're rebuilding all three systems naturally."
========
Three months later, I'm a different person.
No, that's wrong.
I'm ME again.
The me who could get aroused from a look.
The me who got wet without a bottle of lube.
The me who could sit through a movie without burning.
The me who didn't smell like a Subway sandwich after sex.
The me who actually WANTED sex instead of enduring it.
The me whose clitoris remembered how to work.
========
Because here's what still makes me absolutely RAGE:
Women lose 50% of their testosterone by menopause.
FIFTY PERCENT.
This hormone controls:
- Sexual arousal and response
- Vaginal blood flow and tissue health
- Clitoral sensitivity (fun fact: more testosterone receptors there than almost anywhere)
- Energy, muscle, bone density
And insurance won't cover it for women.
A testosterone pellet costs $550 out of pocket.
That's $6,600 a year just to feel human again.
Meanwhile, men get testosterone covered in:
- Injections
- Gels
- Patches
- Pellets
- Creams
- Pills
- Nasal sprays
Plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... ALL covered.
But a woman who can't get aroused because she lost her testosterone?
A woman whose vagina tears because the tissues are starving?
A woman who wants her husband but her body won't respond?
"Here's some lube, sweetie."
I'M DONE WITH THIS CRAP. Seriously.
========
Listen, I spent two years and probably $3,000 trying to fix what hormone loss destroyed:
- Prescription creams that gave me hot flashes
- Antibiotics that destroyed my gut
- Probiotics that did nothing
- Coconut oil that caused infections
- $200 "medical-grade" lube that felt like pouring Elmer's glue in my vagina
- Therapy because maybe it was "all in my head"
- Acupuncture (desperation makes you try anything)
Then I found Radiancy which costs $49.
FORTY-NINE DOLLARS.
Less than a decent bra.
Less than one co-pay to another useless doctor.
Less than 1/10th of ONE testosterone pellet.
Less than what I spend on coffee in a month.
$6,600 a year for testosterone pellets? Or $49 for Radiancy?
Even my husband's MBA brain couldn't argue with that math.
========
The science is stupidly simple:
Testosterone and estrogen used to protect three things:
- Collagen production (testosterone for strength, estrogen for thickness)
- Moisture systems (testosterone for arousal wetness, estrogen for baseline moisture)
- Bacterial balance (estrogen for pH, which keeps good bacteria thriving)
Menopause kills your hormones.
Your hormones stop protecting these systems.
Everything falls apart.
Radiancy bypasses the hormones and feeds the systems directly.
Not with synthetic hormones...
Not with chemicals....
With the exact nutrients your tissues need to rebuild.
It's not magic. It's just biochemistry.

Every single one said "try more foreplay."
Then Dr. Chen picked up a marker and drew something on the exam table paper.
"This," she said, "is the hormone nobody talks about.
And the one all women lose 50% of by 45.
========
At 35, I thought occasional dryness was annoying.
At 45?
My vagina felt like someone had replaced my natural moisture with broken glass.
Sex wasn't just uncomfortable... it was a special kind of torture that made me understand why some women just give up.
========
It was the smell after sex that hit me first.
Not the usual smell.
Something… wrong.
Like onions mixed with copper pennies.
I'd rush to the bathroom immediately after, desperate to shower.
My husband never said anything, but I knew he noticed.
How could he not?
The smell would linger for hours.
I started avoiding sex just to avoid that smell.
========
Then came the infections...
UTI in January. Yeast in February. BV in March.
My pharmacy knew me by name.
The pharmacist started giving me that sympathy look reserved for people with chronic conditions.
"Another round of antibiotics, hon?"
Another round.
Another failure.
Another month of my vagina declaring war on my body.
========
And the dryness?
One woman online described it perfectly:
"It's like my vagina is the Sahara and no amount of lube can make it an oasis."
That's exactly it.
Lube would sit on top like oil on water.
Nothing absorbed.
Nothing helped.
Just… dry.
========
My breaking point came at my daughter's college graduation.
Sitting in that auditorium, surrounded by other proud parents.
I felt the burning start.
That familiar raw, scraping sensation that meant another UTI was brewing.
I shifted in my seat.
Crossed my legs.
Uncrossed them.
My husband whispered, "You okay?"
No.
I wasn't okay.
I was 47 years old, watching my daughter graduate magna cum laude, and all I could think about was the fire between my legs.
========
The next morning, I called my sixth gynecologist...
"I can squeeze you in Thursday at 3:45."
Keep in mind, I'd already seen:
Dr. Martin ("Just use more lube")
Dr. Phillips ("Try coconut oil")
Dr. Ramirez ("It's stress-related")
Dr. Kim ("Part of natural aging")
Dr. Foster ("Have you considered antidepressants?")
But Lauren from book club had insisted:
"You HAVE to see Dr. Chen. She's different."
========
Dr. Chen didn't even look at her computer for the first ten minutes.
She just listened.
When I finished my whole pathetic story, she pulled out a marker and started drawing on the exam table paper.
"Your vagina isn't broken. It's being sabotaged by a hormone no one talks about."
She wrote one word in big letters: TESTOSTERONE
"Everyone obsesses over estrogen during menopause. But you know what they don't tell you? Women lose 50% of their testosterone by menopause. FIFTY PERCENT."
She drew what looked like a plant wilting...
"Think of testosterone like WD-40 for your vagina. It keeps everything moving, flowing, responding. Without it? Everything seizes up and starts breaking down.
You know what testosterone actually does down there?
It's like plant food for arousal — Your clitoris has more testosterone receptors than almost any other part of your body. No wonder orgasms become extinct after 45.
It controls blood flow — Without it, your tissues literally starve for oxygen. They become thin, fragile, easy to tear.
It triggers arousal lubrication — That natural wetness when you're turned on? Testosterone makes that happen. Without it, even when your mind wants sex, your body can't respond."
========
She drew three overlapping circles.
"But here's the thing — it's not just testosterone. You're losing estrogen too. Together, they create a triple disaster:
DISASTER #1: The Collagen Collapse:
Both hormones signal collagen production. Without them, your vaginal walls go from thick rubber band to wet tissue paper. That's why you tear and bleed. Testosterone specifically maintains tissue strength and elasticity.
DISASTER #2: The Moisture Apocalypse:
Testosterone controls arousal moisture - that slippery wetness when you're turned on. Estrogen controls baseline moisture and the hyaluronic acid that holds water in your tissues. Lose both? You literally cannot get wet OR stay moist. It's like your vagina forgot how to vagina.
DISASTER #3: The Bacterial Genocide:
This one's mainly estrogen's fault. When estrogen drops, your pH goes from a healthy acidic 4.5 to alkaline. Your good bacteria die off. What thrives instead? The bacteria that cause infections and that onion-in-a-gym-sock smell."
She circled where all three overlapped...
"THIS is where you live now. Your testosterone can't trigger arousal. Your estrogen can't maintain moisture or pH. Everything's falling apart at once."
========
"So give me both hormones," I begged.
She sighed.
"I could prescribe testosterone cream. But insurance won't cover it. That's $550 per pellet, out of pocket. They'll pay for men's testosterone in seven different forms, but for women? Nothing.
I could add estrogen cream. Might help with baseline moisture and pH but won't restore arousal response or rebuild collagen. Plus your family history makes it risky.
The truth is…"
She paused, choosing her words carefully...
"The women who get better are the ones who bypass the hormone replacement altogether...
They're using targeted nutrition to restore what BOTH hormones used to protect: the collagen that testosterone and estrogen maintained, the moisture systems, and the bacterial balance.
Not with prescriptions, but with the exact nutrients your tissues need."
========
"Like what? Another probiotic?"
"No, you need all three systems rebuilt simultaneously. Medical-grade collagen - especially Type V that both hormones used to stimulate. Hyaluronic acid in clinical doses to replace what estrogen maintained.
And specific probiotic strains that restore the pH that estrogen used to control."
She wrote on her prescription pad:
- Multi-collagen complex (must include Type V)
- Hyaluronic acid (30mg minimum)
- L. acidophilus, L. gasseri, L. fermentum
"Find something with all three. Together. That's how you restore what testosterone AND estrogen used to do."
========
I went home and fell down the Google rabbit hole.
Found a Reddit comment that stopped me cold:
"Without testosterone, women have osteoporosis, heart disease, zero energy, plus we can't get aroused even when we want sex desperately. Insurance STILL won't pay. But they pay for testosterone for men in 10 different ways, plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... Meanwhile I can't even get wet for my husband who I'm still crazy about."
She was right. And it broke my heart.
But then, in that same thread, dozens of women were raving about something called Radiancy.
"Felt like sandpaper even with lube. Now I actually get WET when aroused - like my body remembered how to respond again."
"The onion smell after sex? GONE in 2 weeks. pH is finally normal."
"First time I've had an orgasm in 3 years. Thought that part of me was dead."
========
I checked the ingredients against Dr. Chen's list.
Holy sh*t. It had everything:
- Five types of medical-grade collagen (including Type V)
- 30mg hyaluronic acid (exactly what she said)
- All three probiotic strains she mentioned
Plus reviews from women describing MY EXACT LIFE:
"Lost my testosterone and couldn't get aroused even watching Magic Mike" (literally me)
"Insurance won't cover hormone therapy but they'll cover my husband's ED meds" (RAGE)
"Radiancy gave me back what menopause stole — I can actually FEEL things again" (please God let this be me)
========
$49 seemed insultingly cheap for something that could restore what both hormones used to protect.
Considering I'd already spent:
$300 on prescription creams
$500 on specialty lubes
$400 on probiotics that did nothing
$200 on coconut oil and "natural" remedies
$1,600 on doctor visits
What's another $49?

Jan 16, 2026 - Present
I'd seen five doctors for the dryness, the smell after sex, and zero desire.

Then Dr. Chen picked up a marker and drew something on the exam table paper.
"This," she said, "is the hormone nobody talks about.
And the one all women lose 50% of by 45.
========
At 35, I thought occasional dryness was annoying.
At 45?
My vagina felt like someone had replaced my natural moisture with broken glass.
Sex wasn't just uncomfortable... it was a special kind of torture that made me understand why some women just give up.
========
It was the smell after sex that hit me first.
Not the usual smell.
Something… wrong.
Like onions mixed with copper pennies.
I'd rush to the bathroom immediately after, desperate to shower.
My husband never said anything, but I knew he noticed.
How could he not?
The smell would linger for hours.
I started avoiding sex just to avoid that smell.
========
Then came the infections...
UTI in January. Yeast in February. BV in March.
My pharmacy knew me by name.
The pharmacist started giving me that sympathy look reserved for people with chronic conditions.
"Another round of antibiotics, hon?"
Another round.
Another failure.
Another month of my vagina declaring war on my body.
========
And the dryness?
One woman online described it perfectly:
"It's like my vagina is the Sahara and no amount of lube can make it an oasis."
That's exactly it.
Lube would sit on top like oil on water.
Nothing absorbed.
Nothing helped.
Just… dry.
========
My breaking point came at my daughter's college graduation.
Sitting in that auditorium, surrounded by other proud parents.
I felt the burning start.
That familiar raw, scraping sensation that meant another UTI was brewing.
I shifted in my seat.
Crossed my legs.
Uncrossed them.
My husband whispered, "You okay?"
No.
I wasn't okay.
I was 47 years old, watching my daughter graduate magna cum laude, and all I could think about was the fire between my legs.
========
The next morning, I called my sixth gynecologist...
"I can squeeze you in Thursday at 3:45."
Keep in mind, I'd already seen:
Dr. Martin ("Just use more lube")
Dr. Phillips ("Try coconut oil")
Dr. Ramirez ("It's stress-related")
Dr. Kim ("Part of natural aging")
Dr. Foster ("Have you considered antidepressants?")
But Lauren from book club had insisted:
"You HAVE to see Dr. Chen. She's different."
========
Dr. Chen didn't even look at her computer for the first ten minutes.
She just listened.
When I finished my whole pathetic story, she pulled out a marker and started drawing on the exam table paper.
"Your vagina isn't broken. It's being sabotaged by a hormone no one talks about."
She wrote one word in big letters: TESTOSTERONE
"Everyone obsesses over estrogen during menopause. But you know what they don't tell you? Women lose 50% of their testosterone by menopause. FIFTY PERCENT."
She drew what looked like a plant wilting...
"Think of testosterone like WD-40 for your vagina. It keeps everything moving, flowing, responding. Without it? Everything seizes up and starts breaking down.
You know what testosterone actually does down there?
It's like plant food for arousal — Your clitoris has more testosterone receptors than almost any other part of your body. No wonder orgasms become extinct after 45.
It controls blood flow — Without it, your tissues literally starve for oxygen. They become thin, fragile, easy to tear.
It triggers arousal lubrication — That natural wetness when you're turned on? Testosterone makes that happen. Without it, even when your mind wants sex, your body can't respond."
========
She drew three overlapping circles.
"But here's the thing — it's not just testosterone. You're losing estrogen too. Together, they create a triple disaster:
DISASTER #1: The Collagen Collapse:
Both hormones signal collagen production. Without them, your vaginal walls go from thick rubber band to wet tissue paper. That's why you tear and bleed. Testosterone specifically maintains tissue strength and elasticity.
DISASTER #2: The Moisture Apocalypse:
Testosterone controls arousal moisture - that slippery wetness when you're turned on. Estrogen controls baseline moisture and the hyaluronic acid that holds water in your tissues. Lose both? You literally cannot get wet OR stay moist. It's like your vagina forgot how to vagina.
DISASTER #3: The Bacterial Genocide:
This one's mainly estrogen's fault. When estrogen drops, your pH goes from a healthy acidic 4.5 to alkaline. Your good bacteria die off. What thrives instead? The bacteria that cause infections and that onion-in-a-gym-sock smell."
She circled where all three overlapped...
"THIS is where you live now. Your testosterone can't trigger arousal. Your estrogen can't maintain moisture or pH. Everything's falling apart at once."
========
"So give me both hormones," I begged.
She sighed.
"I could prescribe testosterone cream. But insurance won't cover it. That's $550 per pellet, out of pocket. They'll pay for men's testosterone in seven different forms, but for women? Nothing.
I could add estrogen cream. Might help with baseline moisture and pH but won't restore arousal response or rebuild collagen. Plus your family history makes it risky.
The truth is…"
She paused, choosing her words carefully...
"The women who get better are the ones who bypass the hormone replacement altogether...
They're using targeted nutrition to restore what BOTH hormones used to protect: the collagen that testosterone and estrogen maintained, the moisture systems, and the bacterial balance.
Not with prescriptions, but with the exact nutrients your tissues need."
========
"Like what? Another probiotic?"
"No, you need all three systems rebuilt simultaneously. Medical-grade collagen - especially Type V that both hormones used to stimulate. Hyaluronic acid in clinical doses to replace what estrogen maintained.
And specific probiotic strains that restore the pH that estrogen used to control."
She wrote on her prescription pad:
- Multi-collagen complex (must include Type V)
- Hyaluronic acid (30mg minimum)
- L. acidophilus, L. gasseri, L. fermentum
"Find something with all three. Together. That's how you restore what testosterone AND estrogen used to do."
========
I went home and fell down the Google rabbit hole.
Found a Reddit comment that stopped me cold:
"Without testosterone, women have osteoporosis, heart disease, zero energy, plus we can't get aroused even when we want sex desperately. Insurance STILL won't pay. But they pay for testosterone for men in 10 different ways, plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... Meanwhile I can't even get wet for my husband who I'm still crazy about."
She was right. And it broke my heart.
But then, in that same thread, dozens of women were raving about something called Radiancy.
"Felt like sandpaper even with lube. Now I actually get WET when aroused - like my body remembered how to respond again."
"The onion smell after sex? GONE in 2 weeks. pH is finally normal."
"First time I've had an orgasm in 3 years. Thought that part of me was dead."
========
I checked the ingredients against Dr. Chen's list.
Holy sh*t. It had everything:
- Five types of medical-grade collagen (including Type V)
- 30mg hyaluronic acid (exactly what she said)
- All three probiotic strains she mentioned
Plus reviews from women describing MY EXACT LIFE:
"Lost my testosterone and couldn't get aroused even watching Magic Mike" (literally me)
"Insurance won't cover hormone therapy but they'll cover my husband's ED meds" (RAGE)
"Radiancy gave me back what menopause stole — I can actually FEEL things again" (please God let this be me)
========
$49 seemed insultingly cheap for something that could restore what both hormones used to protect.
Considering I'd already spent:
$300 on prescription creams
$500 on specialty lubes
$400 on probiotics that did nothing
$200 on coconut oil and "natural" remedies
$1,600 on doctor visits
What's another $49?
It arrived in a plain brown box.
(Thank God, because explaining "vaginal restoration pills" to my teenager would've ended me)
Two capsules.
Every morning.
That's it.
========
The Transformation Timeline:
Day 3: The burning during urination stopped.
Day 5: That post-sex onion smell… gone. pH normalizing.
Day 8: I wiped after peeing and felt… slippery? Natural moisture. Holy crap.
Day 12: Had sex without lube for the first time in two years. Didn't bleed. Didn't cry. Actually FELT arousal building.
Day 15: Got randomly turned on folding laundry. Haven't felt spontaneous arousal since Obama's first term.
Day 18: Wore a thong. (Had been in granny panties since 2019)
Day 21: My husband grabbed my ass while I was cooking and I didn't flinch. I pushed back. I WANTED him.
Day 28: I initiated sex. Me. At 10:30 PM. On a Tuesday. And I came.
========
Day 35: Went back to Dr. Chen for a follow-up.
She examined me and actually smiled...
"Your vaginal walls have regained elasticity. Moisture levels are normal. pH is 4.2 — perfect.
This is what I see in women on dual hormone therapy, but you did it nutritionally. You've supported the systems those hormones once protected."
I showed her the Radiancy bottle.
She nodded. "That's exactly what I hoped you'd find. You're rebuilding all three systems naturally."
========
Three months later, I'm a different person.
No, that's wrong.
I'm ME again.
The me who could get aroused from a look.
The me who got wet without a bottle of lube.
The me who could sit through a movie without burning.
The me who didn't smell like a Subway sandwich after sex.
The me who actually WANTED sex instead of enduring it.
The me whose clitoris remembered how to work.
========
Because here's what still makes me absolutely RAGE:
Women lose 50% of their testosterone by menopause.
FIFTY PERCENT.
This hormone controls:
- Sexual arousal and response
- Vaginal blood flow and tissue health
- Clitoral sensitivity (fun fact: more testosterone receptors there than almost anywhere)
- Energy, muscle, bone density
And insurance won't cover it for women.
A testosterone pellet costs $550 out of pocket.
That's $6,600 a year just to feel human again.
Meanwhile, men get testosterone covered in:
- Injections
- Gels
- Patches
- Pellets
- Creams
- Pills
- Nasal sprays
Plus Viagra, Cialis, penis pumps... ALL covered.
But a woman who can't get aroused because she lost her testosterone?
A woman whose vagina tears because the tissues are starving?
A woman who wants her husband but her body won't respond?
"Here's some lube, sweetie."
I'M DONE WITH THIS CRAP. Seriously.
========
Listen, I spent two years and probably $3,000 trying to fix what hormone loss destroyed:
- Prescription creams that gave me hot flashes
- Antibiotics that destroyed my gut
- Probiotics that did nothing
- Coconut oil that caused infections
- $200 "medical-grade" lube that felt like pouring Elmer's glue in my vagina
- Therapy because maybe it was "all in my head"
- Acupuncture (desperation makes you try anything)
Then I found Radiancy which costs $49.
FORTY-NINE DOLLARS.
Less than a decent bra.
Less than one co-pay to another useless doctor.
Less than 1/10th of ONE testosterone pellet.
Less than what I spend on coffee in a month.
$6,600 a year for testosterone pellets? Or $49 for Radiancy?
Even my husband's MBA brain couldn't argue with that math.
========
The science is stupidly simple:
Testosterone and estrogen used to protect three things:
- Collagen production (testosterone for strength, estrogen for thickness)
- Moisture systems (testosterone for arousal wetness, estrogen for baseline moisture)
- Bacterial balance (estrogen for pH, which keeps good bacteria thriving)
Menopause kills your hormones.
Your hormones stop protecting these systems.
Everything falls apart.
Radiancy bypasses the hormones and feeds the systems directly.
Not with synthetic hormones...
Not with chemicals....
With the exact nutrients your tissues need to rebuild.
It's not magic. It's just biochemistry.
