A member asked:

Does mild to moderate prolapse (no uterus) cause vaginal dryness or is it caused from lack of hormones during menopause?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Ron Eaker answered

Hormones: The most common cause of dryness at this stage of life is menopause related. If the tissues are so prolapsed that they are exposed to the outside this may contribute to dryness also. Often estrogen cream is very effective for the dryness.
