Disclaimer: We are not seeking medical advice...rather practical solutions to our current situation.
We are a mid-fifties couple and currently inactive with others in the lifestyle which will become clear as you read. Three years ago, Mrs. sailed through menopause without a single hotflash, night sweat or any other of the typical indicators. Recently, however, she is experiencing dryness and outright discomfort during PIV sex. Something that was once lengthy with repeat events during a takeover/house party or solo has been reduced to less than 10 minutes due to discomfort--and then no more. This has been followed by a few days of true discomfort for her. At present she is using estradiol (which so far what seems to be of questionable efficacy as lengthy PIV sex remains uncomfortable). On the advice of her OBGYN we are working our way through (and incorporating) a broad range of lubricants-water based, silicone, CBD (we are researching the Foria brand of products), something else? Our question to the ladies who have been in this boat is "What has worked for you?". Is there something specific we should ask the OBGYN at her next appointment? In your experience, does this situation improve with time/continued treatment? TIA

Menopause brings on change in a woman’s life and sexual being. Menopause has allowed us to have fun without the fear of pregnancy fully aware that pregnancy isn’t the only fear we have. A personal note, I have always been well lubricated naturally during sex. Rocky has made comments how wet I would get. Oral sex would leave him with a shining wet face, a thing we would laugh about. Never thought about any pain on insertion. I never had problems alone or with a toy except a wet spot on the bed.
My body is changing, not my desires. I noticed my own lubrication has changed. It hasn’t been a major problem just a change I figure goes along with hot flashes.
I recently experienced some pain from the dryness on penetration that alleviated during sex which caused concern.
I am thinking about lubricants and gels. Any advice? I know about KY but being honest how do you use it?

We've been using Pink Silicone for quite a while after some playmates turned us onto it, but lately it seems to be irritating her and causing UTI. We don't always use lube, and maybe it was coincidence and the lube has nothing to do with the UTI's, but every time she has gotten one, lube was used when we last had sex before the UTI. We liked the Pink because even though had silicone, it didn't feel quite as "chemical" as some of the others we've tried.
Any suggestions?

OK, so JoAnn saw this stuff, K-Y yours+mine, on a television advertisement. Then she sees it in the pharmaceutical aisle of the supermarket and buys a box. During our next-week's trip to the supermarket, the cash register spits out a coupon which promises a discount if we buy more. I wonder. At what rate does this computerized coupon-producing system think we are going to be using this stuff? Are we supposed to be drinking it? I though it was supposed to be for smearing on our private parts, in which case the supply should last more than three months (the expiration date on the coupon).

Something suitable for anal or vaginal, condom safe and long-lasting. If I can use it with my Fleshlight that would be great too. My wife and I really like the Climax Bursts line, but it looks like it’s been taken off the market, possibly because of the micro beads.
