Natural Relief for Vaginal Dryness

Natural Relief

• Make sure you are getting eight glasses of water a day.  Don't count juice or other beverages.  Water is Water!
• Ensure your hormones are in balance by avoiding environmental pollutants as much as possible and consuming a diet rich in phytoestrogens.  Certain environmental toxins disrupt hormonal balance, intensifying the symptoms of menopause.  Eat organic as much as possible or follow the Environmental Working Groups Shoppers Guide for the cleanest food.
• If you're on a low-fat, high carbohydrate diet then you may not be getting enough of the hormone building amino acids found in protein.  Perhaps it's time to see a professional health care practitioner for a diet that is right for you.
• Are you getting the right nutrients?  The quality of our food today is not the same as it was 100 years ago.  It may have travelled thousands of miles, or have been grown on artificial fertilizers, or in depleted soil.  We aren't guaranteed a nutrient rich diet.  Consuming a high quality, professionally formulated multi vitamin/mineral ensures your body is getting exactly what it needs.
• Try using a personal lubricant.  Without proper lubrication, small tears in the vaginal wall may allow bacteria to grow.  A lubricant can ease the pain of intercourse and reduce the risk of infection and damage.
• Up your intake of endocrine supporting foods like soy and flaxseed.  these foods are rich in plant estrogens to help balance your hormones.

    Vaginal Dryness does not have to be a life altering product of menopause.  Try the suggested natural solutions and you will find your overall health will improve!
