Vaginal dryness caused by menopause

Vaginal dryness during the menopause is usually caused by falling oestrogen levels. A lack of vitamin E can contribute to this.

Some medications, such as antihistamines, can also dry out your mucous membranes, including those in the vaginal wall.

Try taking 200-400i.u of vitamin E daily and using a good water based lubricant when needed.
