A member asked:
I am 37 and lately i've been having vaginal dryness that makes me feel sore. it's ok during sex, i'm not dry at all then. what are possible causes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Soaps, douches, etc.: Harsh soaps, frequent douching, dehydration and the use of talcum powders all contribute to this problem so stop. Dove, Caress, and Ivory are recommended soaps, and drinking appropriate amounts of water daily. (not sodas).
