Hi all, I found this forum because I was searching for info for these symptoms. I have the irritation and the tears after sex and I thought it was yeast for a while, then I thought it was just dryness . . . now I'm not really sure. BUT, I have been able to make it more manageable, by doing sitz baths with lavendar and flower waters. I read in a book about aromatherapy for lovers that dryness is cured by using jojoba oil for short term relief, and sitz baths with 10 drops each of clary sage and geranium. So, I found floral waters of clary sage and geranium, and I add in some drops of lavendar to heal and soothe, and this makes the pain bearable. Also heals the cuts pretty quickly. I also use a salve made of olive oil, comfrey and wild yam at night because that also helps w/dryness and cuts.

I'm glad I was able to find this site because it is nice to know I'm not the only person dealing with this and that there is hope. If you want to try those remedies, I recommend looking at moon maid botanicals for the salve and mountain rose herbs for the floral waters.

Good luck!
