Vaginal dryness is a nuisance, it is annoying and it is infinitely difficult for us to talk about it, as if it were a defect or something that occurs because of us.
The vaginal dryness is the decrease or absence of lubrication in the female genital area, something quite uncomfortable and very frequent during menopause, although it can really occur in any vital moment of the woman.
It is closely linked to imbalances hormonal, specifically to a decrease in estrogen levels that prevents keeping the vagina properly lubricated. The estrogens in the ovaries they begin to be created at puberty and decrease as the end of a woman's fertile life approaches.
Vaginal dryness is not only caused by physical changes, it is also influenced by psychological aspects.
A high level of stress, being depressed and the fear of having sex due to, for example, fear of pregnancy, are also factors that hinder an optimal level of intimate lubrication.
The Vaginal dryness is a condition that makes normal life difficult and limits a woman's daily activities. It causes discomfort and even pain, which also negatively interferes with the woman's mood.
In it sexual field, affects self-esteem because it produces insecurity, makes us feel less attractive, “defective and that has consequences in relationships. Most of the patients state that they have not told their partners about this ailment, for fear of not being understood, for fear of being considered less of a woman. The couple is damaged not only by the lack of intimacy but, above all, by the lack of communication.ón.
