hey there, i had the same problem when i changed from ortho-tricyclen
to ortho-evra. the only thing the doctor could tell me was to try KY
jelly or another lubricant to help with intercourse. for some
reason though the problem seemed to go away after a few weeks after
being on the new birth control. my boyfriend didn't want to stop using
the KY though - he said it felt really good, even better than normal
lubrication... :wink: did you just start on this pill? Or have you
been on it for more than a few weeks now? tara.

Tara is right, try using K-Y Jelly. It works great. Your dryness
problems have nothing to do with lack of foreplay (as mentioned here)
if you in fact feel that you don't have a problem with your boyfriend.
There's nothing abnormal about you.

Hey shortyluvsjimbo5, how are you doing?

If you feel you are sufficiently aroused and stimulated before sex but, for any of the other reasons we've listed, you still experience vaginal dryness, feel free and relaxed about using lubricating gels and creams. If you experience pain during intercourse, or if your vagina appears to be continually dry during sex, consult your medical practitioner.

In the majority of cases, vaginal dryness is perfectly normal - the vagina's ability to be moist and ready to accept an ever-erect penis at any hour is a sexual myth. "First night nerves," anxiety,
moodiness, tiredness, guilt, an unwillingness to have sex at a particular moment or tension tend to suppress vaginal lubrication in just the same way they can reduce a man's capacity to have an erection - worries and fears should be discussed with your partner before sex; try to iron-out differences and irritations before you go to bed together; are you in fact in the mood for sex?

Best wishes,
