Vaginal dryness Report

Vaginal dryness (atrophic vaginitis) is a common problem for women during and after menopause, although inadequate vaginal lubrication can occur at any age. It is a hallmark sign of vaginal atrophy, thinning and inflammation of the vaginal walls due to a decline in estrogen.
