However, the level of estrogen in the body decreases after the removal of the ovaries and the vaginal secretions decrease, resulting in dryness and pain during intercourse. If a woman has such symptoms, she can use topical estrogen medication in the vagina under the guidance of her doctor to improve the painful symptoms. If the decrease in estrogen level is serious and the patient’s condition allows it, oral estrogen medication can be taken under the guidance of a doctor to help improve the lack of estrogen level in the whole body.
