ABOUT VAGINAL DRYNESS IN WOMEN
As women’s sexual hormones naturally decline with age, we start to see:
- A reduction in the elasticity of the vagina and thinning of the skin
- An increase in vaginal pH and a decrease in healthy vaginal flora
- Diminished natural lubrication
- Things may start to just “hurt” down there!
Dryness and discomfort often become the “accepted” norm. Researchers have also found that women experience many emotional, mood, and confidence issues as vaginal dryness symptoms take over.
IF A WOMAN HAS A PARTNER, SHE MAY FIND:
- A sex life that needs life-support (Because it hurts!)
- A reduced sense of self-confidence as a woman or partner
- A feeling of disconnectedness or loneliness

DR. ANNA’S HOMEMADE PERSONAL LUBRICANT
A natural lubricant can help by reducing the irritation and painful intercourse caused by vaginal dryness. DIY lubricants can be created using many ingredients found in your kitchen cabinets and can offer temporary relief. Natural solutions such as organic coconut oil, aloe vera gel, and essential oils for sex do not contain the chemicals in some commercial lubricants and vaginal moisturizing solutions.
