Dry Vagina during Sexual Intercourse - Question, Answers, Sex Advice

Sexual Intercourse Advice

I am pretty aroused all the time, but I find that during sex no matter how turned on I feel, my vagina is pretty dry. It causes my boyfriend to think that I'm not attracted to him, but I couldn't feel more turned on! ... and I'm really dry ... I went off the birth control pill for this reason and was fine for a few months, but it has become a problem again.

Is there anything I can do to correct this dry vagina?

- Want It

The two most common causes for vaginal dryness are lack of foreplay/arousal and decreased hormone levels.

Even if you feel really turned on, it can sometimes take a while for you to get properly lubricated. If you attempt penetration too soon, then it will be uncomfortable which will decrease your arousal level which in turn will slow down your ability to lubricate yourself.

If the arousal is not the problem then hormones could be the key. Speak with the person who prescribes your birth control and experiment with different ones. Some can dramatically increase your hormone levels to right where they should be. Don't stop until you find a solution that works the way you want it to.

One thing you might consider is a product like Valentra. It will increase blood flow to your genitals which will typically increase lubrication in your vagina.

Until you find a solution, try using a good, water-based sex lubricant such as Wet Light and ID Personal Lubricant.

—Abby

There are many different aphrodisiacs on the market that have popular followings among both men and women. Experiment and you will likely find a few that work for you. Nothing will automatically turn you on, but some heighten sensitivity to your genitals by increasing blood flow which will have a positive effect.
