Lube and the menopause

I have a friend who is going through the menopause and is struggling with lube drying out quickly. It is making sex painful for her as her partner doesn't seem to notice.

I am sure there are ladies on Fab who suffer from the same ..any advice on what she can try. KY is proving fruitless...

A trip to the doctor may get better results as they may have more alternatives.

But its more likley to work than KY which you say already is infective?

If cost is an issue try lard it is natural, doesn't smell of antiseptic and is cheap.

maybe a silicon based lube would be better...the water based ones do disappear very quickly

Try a Silicone based lubricant as opposed to a water based lubricant as it will not dry out, Silicone is a more effective alternative to water based lubricants because silicone lube stays slippery for longer without having to add water, but it doesn't come with many of the negative consequences that oil based lube does. Unlike oil, silicone lubricants are safe to use with latex condoms because they don’t break down the material. They are also ideal for anyone with sensitive skin because silicone lube is less likely to cause skin irritation than even water based lube. Water based lube dries out if water is not reapplied and it has a sticky, tacky feeling when left dry on the skin.
