Due to the low level of estrogen secreted by the ovaries, insufficient vaginal secretion has become an indelible shadow in the hearts of many women. Vaginal lubrication is an important physiological manifestation at the beginning of sexual life. Insufficient vaginal lubrication is medically known as sexual arousal disorder, which is equivalent to male impotence (ED for short).
