How to Manage Vaginal Dryness

The vagina naturally secretes a clear and relatively odorless fluid that serves as lubrication, specifically for penetration during sexual intercourse. The production of such bodily fluid can be influenced by a lot of factors which can be different from one woman to another.

Although a lot of women are ashamed to admit it, they experience vaginal dryness at some point in their lives. It could be due to normal aging or menopause. But more than just normal occurrences, vaginal dryness can also manifest on people suffering from diabetes. But for most reported cases, vaginal dryness was caused by chemical allergy to certain soaps, hygiene products, perfume, and dyes.

Women must learn to take care of their genitals if ever such a condition manifests. This is to ensure that no further irritation or complications come up from the initial dryness. Here are some helpful tips on how to manage vaginal dryness:

Use mild materials when washing
As what has been mentioned above, the most commonly reported cause of vaginal dryness is the use of harsh vaginal wash. If this is the exact reason for your genital dryness, changing to a milder wash can help relieve the dryness. Using plain, warm water can also help restore moisture.

Use water-based lubricants
If vaginal dryness is interfering with your sex life, using water-based lubricants can increase vaginal comfort. It is important to note that you need to make sure that the lubricant is water-based, water-soluble, and contains just the right pH balance that is equal to that of normal body fluid. Note that the pH balance helps prevent the growth of harmful microorganisms such as yeast.

Use moisturizing creams
Although mild vaginal wash helps keep the vagina clean and lubricants help during intercourse, using a mild, formulated vaginal moisturizing cream will help improve the health of vaginal tissues and moisturize the vagina for a longer time. Some formulas help replenish declining estrogen levels in menopausal women. These creams are applied two to three times a week at equally spaced intervals.

These are only some simple ways to help relieve women of the discomfort vaginal dryness brings. To know more about this condition and to find a more suitable treatment for such a condition, it is best to consult a trusted gynecologist.
