Yep. Read our Vaginal Atrophy threads. As oestrogen levels drop the muscles may become lax = aches and pains, at the same time, the body may become dry - inside and out including nostrils, vagina, anus, skin ......... I have in the past applied LIVE yoghurt or KY Jelly or Vaseline into the vagina to keep the whole area moist which eases itching, my GP has since prescribed treatment for VA.
