Vaginal dryness's reason can't be explained clearly in a few words, but it involves a wide range, including psychological, physiological, sexual or other factors. Sometimes these factors are intertwined.

A normal vagina keeps a certain degree of wetness. In the process of sexual arousal and orgasm, due to the accumulation of sexual excitement, vaginal secretions appear from less to more, which makes vaginal lubrication reach a quite high level. These lubricating fluids mainly come from the secretion of cervix, the exudate formed by hyperemia of vaginal wall and the secretion of vestibular gland located at vaginal opening.

During sexual life, only when sexual excitement reaches a certain level can these liquids be secreted and gradually increase. If sexual excitement is insufficient, these lubricants will secrete little or no, and of course vaginal dryness will occur.

Some women may not have vaginal dryness phenomenon, but only appear after some special reasons, which are often caused by psychological or physiological factors.

1, psychological factors:

Psychological reasons are often related to changes in environment, mood and emotional life. For example, work stress, financial constraints, changes in the relationship between husband and wife, interpersonal tension, etc., all these psychological pressures will cause low sexual desire, delayed sexual arousal and slow sexual response.

When sexual excitement is obviously insufficient, the cervical glands and vestibular glands are not secreted, and the vaginal wall is not congested, so there is no exudate, so the vagina is not moist and becomes dry. Some infertile couples should complete "homework" sex according to the doctor's advice every time the woman ovulates. At this time, both parties should do it regardless of sexual desire or not. The woman is more afraid of the consequences of failure and has great psychological pressure. There is no romance or passion at this time, which will also lead to vaginal dryness.

Men should not blindly blame their wives on this issue, sometimes the lack of lubricant for women is caused by their husbands. There is nothing to explain, because it is caused by men's sexual selfishness or impotence and premature ejaculation. Some men only care about satisfying themselves or women can't get basic sexual satisfaction because of sexual dysfunction. After each sexual activity, there is often a feeling of being exploited or used, which will lead to long-term boredom or disgust with sexual life and can not inspire passion. Without sexual excitement, there will be no secretions, and dryness is inevitable.

2. Physiological factors:

After excluding psychological factors, young women should look for reasons physiologically. Common endocrine disorders include, for example, insufficient gonadotropin secretion by pituitary gland or insufficient estrogen production by ovary. The diagnosis in this respect is not difficult. You can know it by taking a few milliliters of venous blood for hormone test. Some women will have vaginal dryness phenomenon after giving birth, which may be due to two reasons: first, because of fatigue, sexual interest declines; The second is the change of endocrine. Because of postpartum lactation, the content of prolactin in the body increases and the secretion of estrogen is inhibited. Some menopausal women will have vaginal dryness, which is caused by the decline of ovarian function due to the increase of age.

3. Sexual skill factors:

This refers to the lack of foreplay, the woman's psychological preparation, the man's lack of sexual induction to her or the use of unpopular methods during sex. It is also one of the reasons why vaginal dryness can't arouse the woman's sexual arousal or the man's poor sexual function in sexual life.

4. Human factors:

Some women blindly pursue "cleanliness", and when leucorrhea is dirty, they repeatedly wash the vagina for a long time, which makes the vagina unable to retain the beneficial secretions that should exist, resulting in the vagina not being truly clean. Unfortunately, this "dryness" brings "astringency" that affects feelings. Once the cause is found, adjustment or treatment can often work.

After finding the cause of vaginal dryness, the next step is to "suit the remedy to the case".

If it is endocrine disorder, we can start with the test data of hormone items, usually the level of estradiol is low or there may be an increase in prolactin and androgen, and the latter two have other clinical symptoms (the cause is sometimes complicated, such as a large increase in prolactin, and pituitary adenoma needs to be ruled out). If estradiol is simply decreased, estrogen can be supplemented appropriately. Diethylstilbestrol used to be the first choice, but it has been found to have a certain relationship with breast cancer, so it should be used under the guidance of a doctor, paying attention to small dose and short time. Some people also use sheep placenta extract and placenta preparation containing animal hormones, combined with vitamin E and Chinese patent medicines (such as Taitai oral liquid, Meiyuanchun and other health care drugs), and the effect is very good; The new natural phytoestrogen (soybean isoflavone) is a health nutrition, but it has obvious effect on improving vaginal dryness.

For whatever reason, it is essential to improve sexual life skills, and sometimes it even plays a major role.

The coordination of sex requires the joint efforts of both husband and wife.

The woman should correct the idea that sex is dominated by men and actively cooperate with them, including the stage information of active suggestion, the position and intensity of sexual stimulation, and appropriate sexual fantasies. And don't mix irrelevant distractions during sex, so as not to reduce the excitement due to distractions;

The man should be considerate, caring and patient, and know the tricks and methods of induction.

If the original sexual dysfunction, it should be treated in time and strive for improvement.

There are many reasons for vaginal dryness, so it's best to consult a gynecologist or reproductive health expert in time. Except for some health care drugs, don't throw drugs blindly, especially hormone drugs.
