When the entrance to the vagina becomes uncomfortable during penetrating sexual activity. It occurs with lack of sexual activity in women of any age and particularly in perimenopausal and menopausal women. It is usually treated by non-hormonal jellies, arousing foreplay and gentle intercourse. If estrogen therapy is needed, Estriol is the safest. Stronger estrogens if necessary should only be used in half a cm on the index finger rubbed into the vaginal opening once a week. Don’t use an applicator!
