Customer question - itchy vagina, home remedy
How to help with a dry vagina? What products should be part of the home pharmacy to solve such issues? Which home remedies are most often used?
Pharmacist's answer:
Let's give some quick and easy self-help tips and hints for vaginal dryness:
1. Vaginal moisturizers, lubricants, and prescription medications are some options for dealing with vaginal/vaginal dryness. Vaginal moisturizers should be water-based.
2. Do not use oil-based lubricants - natural coconut oil, olive oil, and almond oil should not be part of the vaginal routine but only the dermal routine. Do not apply this type of oil to the area of the vaginal mucosa.
3. Medicines prescribed by a doctor, such as estrogen-based creams, pills, and DHEA creams, and in some countries, Ospemifene is also available, relieving vaginal atrophy.
Recently, specific procedures for rejuvenating the vagina/vagina have also appeared, but they are not procedures that have been officially verified and approved.
