JAKARTA – During sex, miss V naturally produces lubricants that are useful for facilitating penetration and minimizing injury. But when it is difficult to 'wet', on the one hand, it is the natural character of each woman's vagina.

Quoted from CNN Indonesia, Monday, August 30, difficulty getting wet can be experienced due to a fungal infection. According to gynecologist Raquel Dardik, fungal infections around the vagina cause the area to tend to dry out.

According to Dardik, some women have had yeast infections. This can increase irritation if penetration is continued without treating or stopping the growth of the infection.

2. During breastfeeding

Women who are breastfeeding, said Mary Jane Minkin, who works as a gynecologist, have low estrogen levels. In effect, the humidity around the vagina decreases.

This phase is not impossible to make love, you and your partner need to know that there is a strategy to be able to stay in love. For example, by wearing a lubricant purchased at a pharmacy and based on water or oil.

4. Stress

The mental state of a person also affects the reproductive area. Including making the vagina dry and the production of natural lubricants is not as much as usual. According to Barbara Winter, this can be experienced by women because the mind is divided, starting from imagining work, anxiety about the body, home problems, and other disturbing things.
