A friend has said that baby oil is a good lubricant - Women health Question

Question:

   When I make love I find that I am rather dry and this is uncomfortable. A friend has said that baby oil is a good lubricant and I was wondering whether to try it?

Answer:

     Baby oils and some petroleum jelly preparations can be  bit messy on the bedclothes. Also, if you use a sheath or diaphragm for contraception, these substances can weaken the latex rubber. Use KY jelly instead, It has a water - soluble base and does not seem to have the same damaging effect on the cap or sheath.

I am about be married again that I will find sex difficult and painful

Question:
   I have not had a sexual partner since my husband died 15 years ago. I am about to be married again, but am worried that I will find sex difficult and painful?

Answer: 
  For the older woman, and those who have not had intercourse for some years, the vagina may be lacking and this could cause some problems during intercourse. Additional lubrication can be given with the use of KY jelly, and you can buy this over the counter at a pharmacy. Using an oestrogen vaginal cream, under your doctor's instructions, can help the tissues relax and become more supple.
