Aunt Vadge: my vagina doesn’t get wet
Dear Aunt Vadge,
My vagina doesn’t secrete liquid at all. Like I get wet a bit but then it dries up in two mins and gets sticky even when I’m fingering myself.
Even during sex I get horny and feel like peeing all the time but the entire vaginal area doesn’t get wet. Very low amounts of liquid is released.
What do I do about it? Do I change my diet?
Yours,

Hi there S,
Vaginal dryness during sex that you are into is a real problem for many women, and the answer for you may require some experimentation. But, here’s a few ideas for you that you can do at home.
We’ve written about vaginal dryness, but specifically vaginal dryness that occurs during good sex, where you are properly turned on and having a horny old time. Read the article for a better understanding of vaginal dryness.
You’ve brought up an interesting point regarding a change in diet. I don’t know what you normally eat, but there are a few things listed in the vaginal dryness article that may be helpful, including upping your calcium and L-arginine-containing foods.
Vaginal lubrication relies very heavily on blood flow to the area during arousal, and if the processes that get blood and moisture to the area aren’t working properly, you can stay dry. L-arginine is what a substance called nitric oxide is built from. Nitric oxide relaxes your smooth muscle (such as in your clitoris) and dilates blood vessels. Nitric oxide is important in our sexual response, helping to lubricate the vagina via the increased blood flow.
You could try an L-arginine supplement or something clinically proven to enhance female sexual function, such as ArginMax.
ArginMax is a herbal formula that also contains vitamins, minerals, and L-arginine, combined to improve blood flow and nitric oxide production. The product has passed muster in terms of clinical trials and may be an easy, balanced option to see if you can kickstart your juices that way.
Please ensure you read any warnings regarding the herbal formula – interactions and unexpected adverse outcomes can occur when we take herbal medicine without taking our personal health into consideration, so do your homework.
Let me know how you go!
Best,
Aunt Vadge
