A member asked:

Can vaginal dryness cause slight burning and uncomfortable sex? i dont have any discharge or itch or smell cus have noticed vaginal dryness and wondering about what could be causing it.what could help with this?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

The dryness could be due to hormonal changes. Using a water based lubricant like KY Jelly may reduce the discomfort during sex. If that does not alleviate your symptoms, it would be prudent to see a gynecologist. Wish you good health!
