Vaginal dryness
Intimacy issues? Seek moisture and comfort.
Vaginal dryness is a common issue that can affect women at any age, often resulting in discomfort, itching, and pain during intercourse. It's frequently associated with hormonal changes, such as those occurring during menopause, breastfeeding, or as a side effect of certain medications. Other factors can include stress, dehydration, and the use of certain hygiene products. Addressing vaginal dryness involves using lubricants and moisturizers, hormone therapy for those who are menopausal, and lifestyle changes to enhance natural lubrication.

Through virtual consultations, you can discuss your symptoms and explore a range of treatment options tailored to your needs, including recommendations for over-the-counter products or prescription treatments.

Precautions
- Use over-the-counter vaginal moisturizers or lubricants to relieve dryness and discomfort during intercourse. Look for products that are water-based and free of irritants.
- Avoid using perfumed soaps, douches, or products with harsh chemicals in the genital area, as these can further dry out the vagina and cause irritation.
- Increase your water intake to stay hydrated, as proper hydration can help maintain vaginal moisture levels.
Common Medications
- Antifungal medications such as Fluconazole (Diflucan) - oral tablet, Clotrimazole (Gyne-Lotrimin) - topical cream or suppository or Miconazole (Monistat) - topical cream or suppository
- Boric acid suppositories - an alternative treatment option
- Prescription-strength antifungal creams or ointments such as: Terconazole (Terazol), Butoconazole (Gynazole)
