Even when using gel for dryness, I have pain when having intercourse. Do other people have this problem and has anyone got any advise?

Yes I was. I have was finding that I was sometimes sore even at anytime. I have found a lot reflief by inserting a Vitamin E capsule inside my vagina after I shower and always use lubricant during sex. I use SYLK because it was recommended as it is all natural and I find it is good, but it is expensive.

Vitamin E a great clue. Thanks

I forgot that I also found that a petroleum free paw paw ointment cream, Woolworth has a cheap good one that is in a pink tube, can be a really good external relief. I haven't found that I have needed it for ages since I have been using the Vitamin E but at first I was using them both and it offered me great relief during the day.
