Don't really know if I am in the right place but here goes: I am a 57 year old woman, very sexual active and am having trouble with a dry vagina. This is causing much discomfort during intercourse. does anyone have any helpful advice for this problem. ?

Welcome to the board loveitalot.


Vaginal dryness is a common problem for mature women who are going (or have gone) through menopause.

Thank you for your advice. I already have tried lubricants and am not crazy about them as they can be messy. I have seen my dr and am using a pill which you insert in your vagina called VagiFem. It works pretty good, but sometimes I forget to use it.

He tells me that it is due to lack of estrogen after going through menopause.
