Sometimes dryness, lack of natural lubrication or even loss of elasticity in the female intimate area appears without warning, at any age.
It is estimated that one in three women will experience symptoms of vaginal dryness at some stage of their life. However, this symptom is more frequent after menopause, due to the absence of estrogen release.
In this article, learn more about which situations can cause vaginal dryness and what types of products should be used to treat this problem.
What is vaginal dryness?
Vaginal dryness is the lack of natural lubrication in the female external and / or internal intimate area that can occur due to various factors and in all ages and stages of a woman's life.
Why does vaginal dryness occur?
Vaginal dryness can have several causes:
• Menopause and postpartum;
• Some diseases such as diabetes, cancer (mainly in women undergoing radiation and chemotherapy treatments) and depression;
• Treatments with some medications (ex: Anti-depressants, oral contraceptives and retinoids);
• Reduced sexual activity;
• Stress;
• Use of aggressive hygiene and intimate care products
How to Treat Vaginal Dryness?
For an effective treatment of vaginal dryness, whatever its origin, it is recommended to apply lubricating cosmetic products locally in the external intimate area, with Hyaluronic Acid.
In cases of vaginal dryness and menopause there is a loss of elasticity in the genital area. Hyaluronic acid acts by increasing tissue elasticity in the genital area, preventing its aging and vaginal atrophy, due to its anti-aging and elasticizing action. Additionally, it ensures correct hydration and maintains the integrity of the intimate area.
