Why is my vagina dry and painful?

For normal women, their vagina should be kept in a humid environment for a long time, because the female vagina needs to maintain an absolute acid-base balance. When the acid-base imbalance occurs, it will cause some gynecological diseases. Therefore, many women will experience dry and painful genitals. At this time, the female genitals are no longer in a humid environment, but the secretions in the genitals have decreased. So what causes dryness and pain in the female genitals?

Vaginal dryness refers to a gynecological disease in which women's vaginal secretions decrease significantly, also known as vaginal dryness. Traditional Chinese medicine belongs to the category of "vaginal dampness and heat".
