Hello,
Dryness of the vagina is commonly due to
hormonal imbalance. Poor circulation of the vagina,
dehydration, auto immune disorder like Sjogren's syndrome, reduced estrogen levels, douching. You are suggested to get clinically examined by a Gynae, get required tests and investigations done and get the underlying medical condition treated at the earliest.
You are suggested to stop douching, get
hormone replacement therapy done if needed. You can go for other
contraceptive methods that will not affect the pH or lubrication of the vagina. Take
vitamin E rich food or vitamin E supplements to help better lubrication.
Use water based vaginal lubricants. You are advised to go for a longer foreplay so that your vagina remains moist/ wet for a better intercourse experience. Topical estrogen therapy is also helpful. Avoid the use of sex toys. Do not use strong perfumed soaps and lotions.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Nupur K., General & Family Physician
