Vaginal dryness

Vaginal dryness is common, and it can be eased

Many women notice dryness, itching or discomfort at some point in their lives. It can come with hormonal changes, with some contraceptives or allergy tablets, or with no clear cause. Simple daily care often helps.

What it is

The vaginal tissue normally stays moist. When it holds less moisture, it can feel dry, itchy or sore, and ordinary activities can become uncomfortable.

Dryness is not a sign of poor hygiene, and there is nothing to be embarrassed about. Pharmacists and doctors are asked about it every day.

Common signs

  • A dry, uncomfortable feeling
  • Itching or burning
  • Soreness or irritation
  • Discomfort when sitting, walking or exercising

What can cause it

  • Lower oestrogen levels around and after menopause
  • The months after childbirth, and breastfeeding
  • Some contraceptives and allergy tablets
  • Scented soaps, wipes or douching

Everyday care that helps

  • Wash with plain water or a mild, unscented cleanser, and avoid douching.
  • Choose breathable cotton underwear.
  • Use a vaginal moisturiser regularly, not only when symptoms flare.
  • Ask your pharmacist if it does not improve.

See your doctor if

Dryness on its own is common, but these need a doctor's advice:

  • Unusual discharge or a strong odour
  • Bleeding between periods or after menopause
  • Itching or burning that does not settle
  • Pain, sores or swelling
