Many women experience dryness, discomfort, or even pain during intimacy at some point — especially during or after menopause, high-stress periods, or due to hormonal imbalance. Yet most suffer silently, thinking it’s unavoidable or temporary.
🔹 What Ayurveda Says:
These symptoms reflect an imbalance in Vata dosha (air element), which governs movement, dryness, and nerve sensitivity. When Vata becomes aggravated — through erratic lifestyle, excessive multitasking, or emotional fatigue — it causes internal dryness, irritation, and tension in the vaginal tissues.
Instead of applying topical solutions that offer temporary relief, Ayurveda focuses on nourishing and softening the body from within, using cooling, moistening, and grounding herbs and oils.
🔹 Contributing Factors:
- Menopausal hormone shifts
- Lack of nourishing fats in diet
- Overexertion or emotional withdrawal
- Chronic stress or low estrogen response
Takeaway:
Comfort during intimacy is not a luxury — it’s your body’s right. And healing it begins with gentle, inner nourishment, not quick cover-ups.
