So, what causes it?

Kate Taylor, Sexual Wellness Expert gives us the 411:

“Vaginal Dryness is a silent nightmare for many women. It’s most often caused by hormonal changes – a drop in oestrogen affects the amount of natural lubrication in the vagina, making it dry, irritated and sore. As well as the physical discomfort, vaginal dryness can cause emotional distress too, with women unable to have sex which can cause feelings of guilt or isolation. While the causes of vaginal dryness are often a natural part of life, the symptoms don’t have to be. There are many ways to ease the discomfort quickly and easily.”

How Does it Work?

The bio-adherent formula in the Vagisil Pro-Hydrate Internal Hydrating Gel contains a substance called ProHydrate Complex, a unique blend of moisturisers including Hyaluronic Acid, which feels like your own natural moisture. This coats the vaginal wall and slowly releases moisture over time to relieve dryness so you can feel comfortable and ready whenever the moment is right. Another popular product in the range, the Vagisil ProHydrate Intimate Wash is so gentle it can be used daily and has a unique blend of moisturisers; as well as the aforementioned Hyaluronic Acid it also contains Jojoba and Shea Butter that will nourish intimate skin. Then there is the Vagisil ProHydrate External Hydrating Gel, which relieves and replenishes dry, uncomfortable vaginal skin to make intimacy way more comfortable and it can also make your intimate skin feel much healthier too. And just in case you are wondering, each of the products are formulated without added estrogens or parabens. Which makes us very happy indeed.
