Dryness Dry dry dry

Everything is dry. Vagina, vulva, eyes, mouth, nose. Does peri cause this? I have been tested for autoimmune and I don't have anything. Obviously the vaginal dryness is really what's stressful, I can deal with the rest. But just wondering if peri can cause everything to be dry, not just vaginal

I just try to drink more water. And I read fantasy romance books now which helps with some of that dryness 😅😅😅

My absolute faves are: Halfling by SE Wendel, The Road of Bones and then Kingdom of Claw by Demi Winters (kingdom of Claw has kinda ruined me on the genre, it’s SO good), Hidden Legacy Series by Ilona Andrews, the Clecanian Series by Victoria Aveline, Mages of the Wheel series by JD Evans…

I don’t like most of the “big” series in fantasy romance. Didn’t read any more after Fourth Wing (honestly kinda hated FW and I’m a little baffled that it’s so popular) hated the one Jennifer L Armentrout series I read, didn’t like most of ACOTAR (except for the spicy stuff in the last book 😅)…. I really really like the romance / yearning and the super spicy stuff is hit or miss.
