Anyone experiences Dryness?!

Had surgery 2/17/14. Since then I have experienced multiple days of vaginal dryness and I've never dealt with this before. I will be 30 next week...not sure if it's cause I'm getting old and hormones are changing or if it's related to my surgery and weight loss? I lost 30lbs on my own before surgery and i have lost about 20 since then, for a total of 50lbs. I have to see my gyno for an annual so I plan on discussing with her then but I was just curious if anyone else experienced this and what was the reason. Thanks :)

It's probably a dehydration symptom. Getting enough water is nearly impossible in the early post-op phase cuz you can't drink it fast like before. Always have a bottle of water with you and keep sipping all day. Also the surgery is a shock to your body so yes, talk to you Dr but give your body some time to recover too.

I have to agree with Chelenka. It may improve with more hydration.

I'm glad I am not alone, almost 1 month post op and i've been having the same issue. keep us posted as to what your Dr. says . I think i'm doing good with drinking. I was thinking that its probably hormones changing.
