Vaginal dryness during sex
Posted: 01-13-07 19:30pm

I have been experiencing vaginal dryness for some time now but especially after having my second child and a tubal ligation. I've tried astroglide and ky jelly, but still dry out during intercourse and my partner is very frustrated, not understanding that I'm more frustrated than he is. what can we do?

Delivery and tubal ligation are probably not associated with the vaginal dryness you are experiencing. Foreplay is very important for wetting the vulva and vagina. Lubricants are also very useful. The final option for treating vaginal dryness is to consult your gynecologist.
