You would like to know why you are not getting wet during intercourse.

Getting wet is a natural process during intercourse. Women may experience difficulties with this process due to infections, atrophic changes on the vaginal lining, decreased production of mucus from the vaginal and cervical glands, stress etc.

You may try to reduce the stress you are dealing with in your everyday life. You may also consider seeing a gynecologist to rule out any infection or atrophic changes on the vaginal lining.

Please keep in mind that I am trying to provide you with medical information here. I am not able to give you medical advice online. Please contact your doctor or a qualified healthcare provider such as a gynecologist to learn more about treatment options.
