At your age, persistent soreness and tenderness on the outer vaginal skin is very commonly related to post-menopausal thinning and dryness of tissues. After menopause, estrogen levels reduce, which makes the vaginal and vulval skin thinner, less elastic, and more sensitive. This alone can make intercourse painful, especially if lubrication is low. When topical creams have not helped much, it usually means the tissue needs deeper nourishment and repair, not just surface moisture. What generally helps: • Use a good quality, water-based or natural lubricant every time during intercourse • Avoid soaps, perfumed washes, or harsh products in that area • Keep the area well moisturized regularly, not only during intimacy • Gentle local oil application (only suitable types) can help improve tissue softness • Pelvic floor relaxation exercises may also reduce discomfort However, since this has been ongoing for months, it is important to rule out conditions like vaginal atrophy, chronic inflammation, lichen sclerosus, or mild infections — all of which require specific treatment. This situation is very manageable with the right approach, but it needs individual assessment rather than trial and error. A proper consultation will help identify whether this is purely dryness-related or if there is underlying tissue thinning or inflammation, and then guide you with a safe, targeted treatment plan so intimacy can become comfortable again.

Hello, After menopause body undergoes s lot of hormonal deficiencies and this may cause the complaints like this. I hope you are not experiencing feeling like something coming down the vagina, bleeding,or burning sensation etc. The ideal choice of medicine in your case is *sukumara ghrta 10 gms every day morning empty stomach. *Shatavari choorna 5gm mixed with warm milk twice daily before food will help manage hormonal deficiencies Along with these the best treatment would be yoni pichu. Role a ball of cotton into a medium grape size , wrap it with clean white cotton cloth . Tie it like a pouch with a long tail. This should be made and kept very clean, better if you can steam these. Dip these clean cotton pouches in sumara ghrta and insert it into your vagina gently after lubricating with sukumara ghrta itself keeping the long tail hanging outside. Let it stay there as long as possible and take it out gently pulling on the tail of the pouch when you feel the need to pee.these will strengthen the pelvic floor muscles also reduce the dosha kopa and vaginal mucosa absorbs medicine faster and also provides lubrication. Do these and reach back out
