Since having my ovaries removed menopause has hit me hard, I have hot flushes a lot and sex has become very painful even with lubricants, because I had breast cancer and two cancer causing genes my ovaries were removed and I am not to use any sort of hrt. therefor my vagina have become dry and uncomfortable. and sex is something to dread I also have intching most likley because of the dryness in what is suppose to be a moist, warm place. I have looked these symtoms up and they are part of menopause and or vaginitus.
Are you taking HRT? Talk to your OBGYN and estrogen cream may be all you need.
