Question 1

what is a good medicine for dry vagina and painful intercourse of women after menopause?

Accepted Answer

Vaginal estrogen: Vaginal dryness is common after menopause due the lack of hormones.  Using vaginal Estrace (estradiol) or vagifem can help with localized dryness.

Question 2

what is the best way to treat dry vagina and painful sex?

Accepted Answer

Need to examine: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. You may use a water based lubricant like K-Y jelly. If that does not help it would be prudent to see a doctor. 
Get HPV and Covid vaccines.
Wish you good health!

Question 5

Accepted Answer

GYN exam/STD screen: You will need a full GYN exam and vaginal cultures for STD exposure: this certainly sounds like an infection. I would also suggest that your current sexual partner be checked for STDs.

: Hormonal imbalance can do that. check with your Gyn

Question 7

sore and painful nipples, hot flushes, dry vagina, pain after sex, frequent spotting esp. after sex but on pill (progestogen only pill,usually very rare bleeds), sweaty hair after waking up. pregnancy test was negative. 33 years old. what could it be?

Accepted Answer

: You are too young for premenopausal syndrome but your symptoms are similar. Thyroid dysfunction also needs to be ruled out. You should see your family doctor or a GYN doctor for hormone tests. Good luck.

Question 8

what causes dry vagina ?

Accepted Answer

Lack of estrogen: As women age, for example after menopause, their bodies make less estrogen. This can lead to vaginal dryness. A doctor can evaluate if a topical vaginal estrogen cream could be right for you.

Question 9

i have a dry vagina , what do i do?

Accepted Answer

Moisturizers: There are lotions or gels or oils that can be used. You have to know though that it is not a hormonal problem. Talk to your doctor to find out and get the advise. In terms of things to use there are many, just know and treat the cause first.

Question 10

what causes dry vagina and how can you get it to stay wet?

Accepted Answer

Big topic: In older people, or those without ovaries, it can b from lack of esrogon.  If its a sexual issue it could be due to lack of arousal, some drugs such as antidepressants can cause this.  An oil based lubricant ( astroglide) can help during intercourse but there may be a better answer out there; some Progesterone only contraceptives may contribute( implanon, depo-provera.  Good luck.
