Can eating excessive amounts of corn starch during pregnancy cause vaginal dryness?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
NO: There is no direct correlation between corn starch and dryness; however, the bigger question is why you are ingesting corn starch: this condition may be pica and requires immediate medical and psychological evaluation.
