Vaginal Dryness

Every woman at some stage of her life experiences vaginal dryness and up to 70% of post-menopausal women have symptoms of atrophic vaginitis. Despite the prevalence of symptoms, most sufferers are too embarrassed to seek medical advice and so, sadly, struggle on with a condition that is easily corrected by the use of the right natural remedies.

The most common cause of vaginal dryness is declining oestrogen production which leads to thinning and drying of the vaginal wall often coupled with a lack of essential fatty acids uptake by the cells of the vaginal mucosa. Any treatment should therefore incorporate not simply lubricants but also hormonal balancing herbal supplements.
