According to the Journal of Urgent Care, vulvovaginitis is the cause of approximately 10 million office visits in the United States annually. Vulvovaginitis can be characterized by symptoms of itching, irritation, burning, redness, discharge and discomfort.

"These uncomfortable and sometimes painful symptoms affect women of all ages and are common gynecological concerns," said Jeanne Collins, Sr. Brand Manager of Marketing, Feminine Hygiene. "We are thrilled about the launch of Vagisil Satin(TM) as we continually strive to meet the needs of women by offering them a solution that immediately helps them feel more comfortable."

Vagisil Satin's non-greasy, light formula relieves itch on contact and has powerful odor block protection that keeps odor from happening.

"Whether at work, home or on the go, external vaginal discomfort not only causes physical stress but also puts a damper on a woman's mood and confidence level," said Adelaide Nardone, board certified OB/GYN. "Vagisil Satin can really help women start to feel like themselves again."
