Sexual intercourse
Skin irritation in the vulvovaginal area is not uncommon after sexual intercourse. If you are sensitive you should apply a skin cream to the area beforehand and possibly afterwards as well. If the vulvar area and the vagina itself are too dry, a gel or cream can help
Also, if the vaginal entrance and vagina are too dry, it helps to apply a gel or cream (e.g. Dr. Wolff's V-san Moisturising Cream) before sexual intercourse.
Avoid
Appropriate Intimate Hygiene
