    Try some premeno duo ovules from stress no more uk and not as messy as gels and creams to lubricate, moisturise etc

    they are the best in my opinion 

    maybe you should see a doctor as your very young and you may have a hormone imbalance

    Oh dear You are so young to experience this.

    Perhaps you need to see the doctor to find out if this is a side affect of the jaundice or another cause.

    Did you see the doctor re the jaundice? Presumably you have and were treated. As it has different causes maybe there is a connection between the jaundice or the medication given to you to treat it and the vag dryness. If you did not see the doctor I would definitely go. Health is too important.

      Hi 

      i am concerned for her too, she hasnt been on here since posting ..

      she needs to see the doctor ..

      Jaundice is caused by a build-up of a substance called bilirubin in the blood and tissues of the body, yellowing of the skin, 

      She hasnt said if she was diagnosed this or even seen a doctor..

      she needs to go back asap .. Shes so young ...

      i wasnt sure what she meant at first .. had to read it again.. 

      Hope she gets to the GP

      Jayx

    i also stressed alot about my health  after the jaundice because i am feeling extremely week and i am mentally disturbed and scared whether this is going to be ok ishouldnt be worried or is it going to affect my liver forever i am so scared disturbed and some times i cry(silently) i have 2 kids aged 1 and 2& a half years and i cant do all of their by  myself,without help.

    i read somewhere that jaundice  also in some way connects to liver cancer(this word scares me ALOT), although i hav had all tests and reports are normal ,but still..

    can you guys please suggest any forum where i can get psychological support for that.please.

    thanks

    In my experience it does not go away, however, I am 40 years older and am not producing hormones.  The lack of estrogen is what causes vaginal atrophy.  Start using a lubricant ASAP, like Replens or something of that nature.  You will dry up if you do not!!!  Seriously!!!  It's awful.  I think, however, that you are far too young for this condition and it would be well worth it to seek a physician's assistance to make sure there isn't something else causing this for you.
