Vaginal Dryness is a very real and uncomfortable problem. Some patients feel like there is a rock inside their vaginas!!!
You can choose Ostaderm V and Estriol Vaginal Suppositories as well as using Vital Vulva. I have been having great success with my new product called "SYLK" . This is a natural water based vaginal lubricant made from New Zealand Kiwi Vine Extract without any hormones in it. This product is great for use during intercourse and in most cases eliminates the disomfort that comes with thinning vaginal tissues.

!!! If you suffer from VULVA & VAGINAL DRYNESS YOU MUST EAT A LOW OXALATE DIET.
A diet low in oxalate salts has been suggested as treatment for women who experience unexplained vulval pain. The Association of Oxalates and Vulval Pain was highlighted in an article in an American
Medical Journal in 1991 where a woman with vulvodynia was found to have abnormally high levels of oxalate in her urine. She was treated with a combination of a low-oxalate diet and given calcium citrate which removes the oxalate from the body.
Vulvodynia is defined as long-standing vulval discomfort or pain, particularly that characterized by burning, stinging, irritation or rawness of the vulval area. Vaginal dryness is characterized by irritation, painful intercourse, and burning with urination.
