Okay so I have a problem. I tend to get
really dry very quickly while having sex.
Ill be all wet and aroused during foreplay
and then five minutes into sex ill be dry.
This is frustrating for my man because it
feels better for him when im wet and its
frustrating for me because it hurts when
im dry and he continues to thrust. 1. Is
this normal to get dry so quickly? And
what does it mean? 2. Besides lubricant
is there anything else I can do?
first you
need to take a look at what has changed in
your life recently- medications? Stress
levels? Illness? Birth control methods?
Changes in any of the above could cause
vaginal dryness for a normally healthy
woman. Other reasons as to why you may be
dry down there include pregnancy,
menopause, or simply not getting enough
foreplay before penetration.
is there a reason why you don't want to
use lubricant?
If you're still not satisfied, i'd see a
doctor. It could be hormonal imbalance
too.
Good luck!

No theres no reason. I just feel like I
shouldnt need to use lube, I should be wet
enough on my own ya know. I am in my
third month of the pill so that could be
it. Im not sure. Ill have to look into
it. And also I found that the more
foreplay the drier I am. Its like im
wasting what I have on foreplay and by the
time we get to sex, my supply has run out.
I dont know if that helps.

There is nothing wrong with using
lubrication. Many women use it.

does it increase the risk of infection?
Me and my bf have been wanting to
experiment with lube, but im too paranoid
because I tend to get infections quite
easily:-\

there are two main types of lubrication,
water-based and petroleum-based. Make
sure you read the label and get
water-based. Petroleum-based lubricants
can increase your chances of getting an
infection, and they also break down latex
in condoms making them more likely to
break. I am not aware of any down sides
to water-based lubrication, however.
They are available over the counter, but
be aware that vaginal dryness can be a
symptom of a problem. So before buying,
women should see their doctor just to make
sure their dryness isn't a sign of
something larger. If the doctor gives
the ok, then go for the water-based
lubricants all you want.
