Introduction

Many women might feel vaginal dryness at some point in their lifetime. Vaginal dryness is a common problem that women may feel shy about communicating with their doctors. Still, if it affects their daily lives, medical help is necessary. A gland present in the womb (cervical gland) is responsible for producing natural lubrication in the vagina. It helps keep the vagina moist and clean. Factors like some medications, a decrease in hormone levels, or breastfeeding can lead to the symptoms of vaginal dryness. It can cause pain, burning sensation, and irritation when women engage in intercourse. Vaginal dryness can affect all women, but it is more common in menopausal women in their 50s.

If you are someone experiencing vaginal dryness, you are not alone. So don’t shy away from getting medical help. It’ll help you lead a comfortable life.
