The word ‘vagina’ is somewhat taboo. So it’s no wonder no one talks about vagina dryness. Regardless, many women will experience vaginal dryness in their lifetime. According to statics, up to 75% of menopausal women may very well experience vaginal dryness. Despite the high number of women experiencing problems related to vaginal dryness it is still a silent problem that many people feel embarrassed to talk about. And yet a little bit of openness about the condition, its symptoms and treatment can go a long way toward improving ones quality of life.
Cause of Vagina dryness
As our estrogen levels decline our vaginal walls become thinner, dry and less elastic. As a result vaginal dryness, also known as vaginal atrophy (VA), a chronic progressive condition contributes to painful intercourse. Physical conditions such as stress, diabetes, recent childbirth and hysterectomy can also contribute to vaginal dryness, irritation and discomfort. Overall, vagina dryness can impact a woman’s quality of life and relationship with her partner.
Treatments for vaginal dryness
Treat Vaginal dryness during menopause by using a regimen of moisturizer and occasional use of a lubricant during sexual intercourse.
Try Private RX personal water-based vaginal lubricant to decrease friction during intercourse. Private RX personal lubricant is a blend of silicone and water and is similar to our own body’s natural moisture. The lubricant is generally used as an aid to smooth sexual intercourse and works short-term to help one lubricate the region.
