A good solution to relieve vaginal dryness
Silicone-based personal lubricants are a good solution to relieve vaginal dryness
There are many different ways to help if you’re suffering from vaginal dryness. One of the easiest and most comfortable ways is to use a high quality lubricant. However, the market is full of lubricants: based on oil, on water, on silicone or on a mixture of water and silicone.
So, which lubricant might be the best one if you search for good and reliable help? Maggie Walsh, Breast Care Nurse gives you a short overview. She has been giving advice to women with vaginal dryness for many years and is keen to improve the lives of women following cancer treatment and the menopause.
Vaginal dryness and discomfort is a common problem and women can suffer from it and at various times in their lives. Menopause, stress, pregnancy, medication or wrong intimate hygiene can all lead to increased dryness. Wrong or bad ingredients of cheap lubricants may even increase pain in this area and make the problem worse.
It is important to find a lubricant that consists of high quality ingredients. Lubricants that are based on oil or paraffin are not safe to use with condoms and are best avoided. They can create an environment in which bacteria can enter the body and grow. This may cause problems such as urinary tract infections.
One solution is to use high quality water-based lubricants. They are safe to use with latex condoms and provide gentle and even lubrication. Apart from that, they can be enriched with various plant extracts. Water-based lubricants are absorbed by the upper layers of the skin and leave it soft feeling. However they may dry out faster than silicone-based lubricants.
Silicone particles are larger than the pores of the human skin. This means that the skin or the mucous membrane cannot absorb the silicone. Because the product is prevented from entering the body, it stays on the surface of the skin. The breathability of the skin or mucous membrane is unchanged and the pores remain unblocked. Silicone lubricants are extremely long lasting, preservative free and can be used with latex condoms. A few drops of a silicone lubricant will give you long lasting, smooth lubrication. This is the reason I recommend a silicone-based lubricant as the best solution for the relief of vaginal dryness.
