OTC vs. Prescription Vaginal Dryness Treatments

Over-the-Counter (OTC)

  • What it is: Lubricants (used during sex) and vaginal moisturizers (used regularly).

  • Purpose: Relieves dryness and discomfort, makes sex more comfortable.

  • Limitation: Does not treat vaginal atrophy or strengthen vaginal tissue. It only addresses symptoms temporarily.

Prescription

  • What it is: Usually vaginal estrogen (creams, tablets, or rings).

  • Purpose: Treats the underlying cause by rebuilding and strengthening vaginal tissue, not just relieving symptoms.

  • Benefit: Can improve elasticity, thickness, and moisture of vaginal tissue over time.

About Vaginal Dryness

Vaginal dryness—also known as vaginal atrophy or genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM)—occurs when the vaginal walls become thin, dry, and less elastic, often due to a drop in estrogen levels. This can lead to discomfort during sex, itching, or a general feeling of dryness or irritation.

The most common cause is a decline in estrogen, especially during:

  • Menopause

  • Perimenopause

  • Postpartum recovery

  • Breastfeeding

  • Certain cancer treatments (e.g., chemotherapy, radiation)
    Other causes include certain medications, smoking, autoimmune conditions, or lack of sexual activity.

You might experience:

  • Dryness, burning, or itching in the vaginal area

  • Discomfort or pain during sex

  • Mild spotting after intercourse

  • More frequent urinary tract infections (UTIs) or urgency

  • Decreased natural lubrication

Yes. Vaginal dryness can affect anyone, not just those going through menopause. Hormonal changes, stress, medications, or medical treatments can all lead to symptoms, even in your 20s or 30s.

Your provider may recommend:

  • Regular use of vaginal moisturizers or lubricants (water- or silicone-based)

  • Staying hydrated and maintaining sexual activity to increase blood flow

  • Prescription treatments, such as topical estrogen or non-hormonal medications, if dryness is persistent or severe
    An iVisitDoc provider can help you choose the best option based on your health history and symptoms.
