Anybody else experiencing dryness down there, even when extremely turned on?

Drink Water and use a lube

I was wondering if it was an issue of not drinking enough

It can be, think about it... my dr told me that when you a are consuming enough fluids it effect that part of your body also. So there you have it. DRINK

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for posting this topic! I didn't know how I was going to bring this subject up. But it all makes sense now. I can't believe I couldn't figure that one out myself. I'm always saying "I have to drink more fluids"! At least I know it's something that I can take care of easily. Thanks again ladies!

maybe Im drinking too much fluids lmao

Just keeping it real.

I have answer for you because I went to a gyn.

Back when I was obese, even post menopause I had lots of moisture down there. That is because all that fat generates estrogen - which is probably why obese women have higher breast cancer rates.

Once I got close to my goal weight, it became dry and no amount of drinking Water helped....

The only solution is to use lubricant, or to root cause fix it is to take hormone suppositories. My problem became bad enough i noticed it when riding bike, horseback riding etc... just more delicate when it gets dried out.

If you are having this problem and are not menopausal, I wonder if you are moving toward perimenoupausal (ie pre menopause). If that isn't the case, well, then I don't know the answer, but bottom line is...

fat girls make more wet then skinny girls.

Cowgirljane has it exactly right! Lube is a small price to pay for being confident enough to get it on without being self conscious!

There are creams but I would start with your Obgyn and encourage your partner to just spend a little more time with four play! HAha

One word: Astroglide!!

Drive by posting from the Man Room. Lol.

On theDr.s show the GYN that is on there said to use organic coconut oil. She said it doesn't break down like regular lubes do.
