Q: 

Recently, before my boyfriend and I have sex I have trouble getting wet even though I'm aroused. What could cause this?

We're both 19, have been together for 7 months and barring this difficulty, have a great sex life.

Anon,

I'm wondering if your difficulty with lubrication has anything to do with the time of month in your cycle. Is is all the time now, or just sometimes? How recently did this begin?

Have you stopped or started any new medications recently?

Many women have trouble with lubrication, even when aroused. We are all different. Here's an article from Discovery Health that talks a little about it:

And here's a Women's Health magazine article on lubricants:

And a MedicineNet article you may be interested in:

Does this help a little?
