What is the cause of vaginal dryness during intercourse?

Sex should be a happy and sweet moment for us, everything becomes natural and wonderful. However, since giving birth to my baby, every sex is not as wonderful as before giving birth. Moreover, my vagina is sometimes very dry, and it is very painful every time my husband enters. I don’t know what’s wrong. Sometimes we use lubricants, but we still hope to solve this problem fundamentally, so we went to see a doctor.

Experts say that many women after childbirth will experience vaginal dryness, which causes pain during intercourse and leads to a dislike of sex. If this condition is not improved, symptoms such as postpartum sexual apathy will occur. If you force sexual intercourse when the vagina is dry, it will cause vaginal congestion and even swelling, and damage the vaginal wall mucosa, leading to infection and even inducing a variety of diseases. The main cause of postpartum vaginal dryness is the increase of prolactin in lactating women, which inhibits the secretion of sex hormones, reduces libido, reduces vaginal secretions, and causes vaginal dryness. So what to do about vaginal dryness after childbirth?

Experts say that first of all, couples should communicate well with each other, and the husband should be considerate and caring towards his wife. During sexual intercourse, you can add more foreplay such as touching and kissing to stimulate your wife's passion, relax her vaginal opening, and moisten it fully before entering. Don't rush. If your wife feels unwell, it is best to stop immediately to avoid causing injury or psychological fear.

Secondly, dryness is sometimes just a feeling during sexual intercourse, not a real reduction in secretions. There are some acute and chronic inflammations, such as candidal vaginitis, which cause thicker secretions and dryness and pain during sexual intercourse. Therefore, female friends should pay attention to gynecological examinations and conduct tests on leucorrhea and secretions when necessary.

My female friends, if you have the same problem as me, I suggest you go to the hospital for a check-up to see if it is an inflammation problem or an endocrine disorder problem. Only symptomatic treatment can fundamentally solve the problem and let our lives return to the time before we had children. Only in this way can couples go a long way, because 80% of divorces are due to sexual disharmony.
