A few nights ago the inner labia of my vagina tore during sex. It didn't bleed at the time but I've noticed pain and itching and the occassional blood when I use the restroom. I finally checked today and I noticed a tear. I'm fairly certain that it was not there before I had sex. I've been researching this to find out what I should do and noticed that the causes of tearing could be low estrogen levels (which I know I have due to a medical problem addressed a few months ago). Apparently low estrogen levels can cause the vaginal walls to thin and for the vagina to be dry. I have noticed dryness but thought nothing of it. Now I'm worried though. Does anyone have any thoughts on this or have experienced this as well? It's a small tear, no more than a centimeter, but it does hurt quite a bit. Any suggestions on how to fix the tear and the dryness?
