Do Sugar Substitutes Reduce Dryness In Vagina?
Hi, I am a female in my mid- thirties, and only recently observed that I am dry during intercourse. Today I took a lot of sugar, drinks, snacks and even ice cream. I later observed dat I was wet, and had some sticky discharges. Is it possible that the sugar has something to do with this?

Hi,
I do not think so, as there is no scientific proof or explanation for the same. The amount of secretions and moisture varies among individuals, but can be well improved by ensuring enough foreplay and full arousal. For those who fails to achieve this, there are water based lubricants available in the market for the same.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
