Vaginal Dryness
Q: I have been suffering with vaginal dryness. Can you tell me what causes this to happen and how I can improve it?
A: Reduced vaginal lubrication is a common problem
caused by hormone imbalances. Changes in hormones
during times of stress, when pregnant or breastfeeding,
when using the birth control pill or at menopause
can cause a decrease in vaginal secretions. Both
over-the-counter and prescription medications can
also contribute to this concern. Reduced lubrication
increases the likelihood of infections and irritations—and it can be downright uncomfortable. A personal
lubricant is the answer. Most women think lubricants
are used only during intercourse but a lubricant
should be used throughout the day if you have vaginal
dryness to prevent infections, itching, burning, heat
and pain from the dryness. I recommend you use
LOVE Personal Lubricant because it is water-based,
non-staining to clothing or bedding and it does
not contain parabens or other toxic preservatives.
LOVE also maintains normal vaginal balance and is
soothing. Never use a lubricant that contains mineral
oils or petroleum derived ingredients. If you are using
bioidentical vaginal estrogen then you will also want
to add LOVE Personal Lubricant to support healthy
vaginal tissues.
Balancing hormones is also important when su.ering
with vaginal dryness. If you are having hot flashes,
night sweats or other menopausal symptoms include
MenoSense to improve overall hormone balance. Take
two MenoSense with breakfast and two MenoSense
at bedtime to provide 24 hour a day support for your
hormones. If birth control pills are the reason for your
vaginal dryness then use EstroSense, two capsules
with breakfast. EstroSense also protects you against
the negative side effects of the pill. Eat a diet rich in
vegetables, protein and healthy fats. De-stress your life
and get at least 8 hours of sleep at night. If your desire
for sex is diminished due to vaginal dryness include
Sex Essentials along with daily use of LOVE Personal
Lubricant to bring excitement back into your love life.
Do not suffer with vaginal dryness—LOVE is the
answer.
