Vulvar dryness. What is it and how is it treated?

If you’ve suffered from it, you will have certainly asked yourself these questions.

Vulvar dryness is primarily due to a decrease in oestrogen, which is why it is usually associated with the menopause, although in actual fact, more than half of all women who suffer from vulvar dryness are under 50.

This condition is very common in women of all ages.

Oestrogen production is influenced by several factors:

• Taking certain medications (especially hormonal ones).
• Stages in women’s lives when oestrogen levels change (after childbirth, during breastfeeding, menopause, etc.).
• Smoking and alcohol.
• High stress levels.
• Use of non-specific intimate hygiene products.

Vulvar dryness causes a decrease in the thickness of the vulvar epithelium due to a decrease in fat and a thinning of the mucous membranes.
The symptoms of vulvar dryness (pain, burning or irritation, among other factors) are very uncomfortable and have a negative impact on the quality of life of women who suffer from it.

In these cases, it is essential to start treatment with moisturising active ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, which is widely recommended by vulvar health experts.
