Hi, thanks for writing..
During the premenopausal period it is quite normal to have vaginal dryness. So get a vaginal swab test to confirm that you dont have any infection.. If there is infection,get it treated.. If no infection, include food rich in phytoestrogen like oats, grapes, beans, leafy veg etc.. Application of estrogen creams enhance lubrication.. Prior to intercourse KY jelly can be applied.. Hope i have answered your query.. good day..
