What causes vaginal cracking?

There are many reasons for vaginal dryness or cracking, such as childbirth, breastfeeding or menopause, which can cause vaginal dryness or cracking, and can also affect sexual life, so pay attention to these reasons and solve them correctly.

1. Vaginal dryness has many reasons, including childbirth, breastfeeding, emotional stress, menopause, environmental changes, insufficient foreplay, vaginal inflammation, etc. During sexual intercourse, when a woman's sexual desire is aroused, the glands in the vagina will secrete a liquid as a lubricant. If this process is disrupted and the vagina is not adequately lubricated, sexual intercourse will cause pain and discomfort.

2. If female hormones decrease, it will cause autonomic nervous system dysfunction. Clinical symptoms such as hot flashes, sweating, palpitations and insomnia are reflections of this dysfunction. At this time, the sexual organs also change, the most prominent of which is the atrophy of the labia majora and minora, thinning of the vaginal mucosa, vaginal atrophy, and a decrease in vaginal secretions. In addition, the pH value of the vagina tends to be alkaline, which is conducive to the reproduction of pathogenic bacteria and causes vaginitis, periurethritis, etc. Therefore, during sexual intercourse, you feel dry and painful and cannot have a normal sexual life. Vaginal dryness is the most common symptom among women. If you have a decrease in secretions, you can observe it first and then do further examination.

3. You can check whether the vagina is infected or inflamed. If there is vaginitis, the brain will produce resistance during sexual intercourse, resulting in a decrease in vaginal secretions. You can do more foreplay before having sex.
