Vaginal Dryness

The Bartholin glands located on each side of the posterior half of the vaginal orifice are responsible for vaginal lubrication at the time of sexual intercourse.

Possible causes: cessation of ovarian activity? frigidity? sterility? anaphrodisia? hyperexcitement? calculous cystitis?  bartholinitis? STDs? postpartum? post-surgical stress? ligation? hysterectomy? vaginal infection (mycosis, chlamydia, herpes)? endometriosis? repeated vaginal toilets with aggressive products?  or even scleroderma?

Dyspareumia: pain in women during sexual intercourse with vaginal penetration. This syndrome can appear during vaginal dryness, chronic cystitis, vaginal herpes, lack of estrogen, tearing of a ligament supporting the uterus.
