Here Are Several Causes And Cures For Dryness ‘Down There’
Perimenopause or menopause
While many associate menopause with middle age (or older), the truth is perimenopause can kick in in a woman’s 40s, and sometimes even in her 30s, says Mayo Clinic. Declining estrogen levels are a normal part of perimenopause and menopause. So already during perimenopause, a woman might find that the tissue of her vaginal walls becomes thinner and dryer. This can cause itching and discomfort during sex. The symptom can and often does get worse after menopause. The truth is that, most healthy women really only have a few decades of a naturally well-lubricated vagina before perimenopause ruins that.
