If the vagina is dry during intercourse, it is mostly due to low ovarian function, lower estrogen secretion in the body and reduced cervical discharge as well as vaginal discharge. In this case, it is recommended to use Ovitin ointment and apply it to the vagina 20 minutes before intercourse to effectively relieve vaginal dryness. Since Ovitene Ointment is estrogenic, an ultrasound examination of the breast and a screening test for cervical cancer are required before use. In addition, an ultrasound is needed to mainly find out if there is any abnormal thickening of the endometrium and to rule out the possibility of endometrial cancer before using this medication to relieve vaginal dryness.
