Brand ambassador, Robyn Malcolm, and inventor, Dr Iona Weir, answer questions women frequently ask about post menopause issues and new Myregyna®, the Kiwi science breakthrough.
Q: Where’s the bathroom?
Robyn: Since menopause, I’m constantly needing the loo. Why?
Iona: You lose elasticity and muscle tone around the urethra so it widens and is more prone to leakage.
Irritants get in, the bladder is easily triggered, and activities like running or jumping put pressure on the pelvic floor, making you feel like you need to go.
Robyn: So you end up planning your life around toilets.
Iona: Exactly – and sometimes avoiding events altogether.
Q: Why is everything so dry?
Robyn: And then there’s the dryness down there – it’s like the Sahara!
Iona: That’s vaginal atrophy – thinning, dryness, pH changes and less blood flow. The tissue can also crack, making sex uncomfortable.
Q: How does Myregyna® work?
Robyn: So how does Myregyna work?
Iona: It supports elasticity and plumpness in the skin, similar to anti-ageing skincare but for the vaginal area, using science from my Atopis® skincare range. It’s a two-part system: a dietary supplement to work from the inside (with Myrecil® and probiotics for vaginal health) and a hydrating cream for the outside. Together, they support your natural lubrication and resilience, urinary health and comfort, and genital skin.
Q: How long does Myregyna take to work?
Robyn: How fast will I see results?
Iona: Many women notice support in 2-4 weeks, with ongoing improvement over time. We even have women in their 90s using it.
Q: Does Myregyna contain hormones?
Iona: Myregyna uses no hormones at all. That’s why it’s suitable to be used alongside HRT, or for women avoiding hormones entirely.
Q: Where is Myregyna made, and what’s in it?
Robyn: Are Myregyna’s ingredients natural?
Iona: 100% natural and made in New Zealand. The key ingredient is Myrecil®, made from fermented pollen, coconut water, coconut oil, and honey, delivered with medical-grade hyaluronic acid. The fermentation makes plant compounds bioactive for human skin – powerful, but without using any synthetic chemicals.
Robyn: So nature can be powerful and effective as lab-made?
Iona: Yes – by using nature’s own biochemical pathways, you don’t need to use artificial ingredients.
