The skin on your labia (vagina lips) could be this way because they are chafed. If it is moist (from urine, discharge) and nothing is there to soak it up, like a pad, then it on right on the skin and this moisture causes break down. Wear a pad and use some powder to help keep this area dry. Make sure when you use the powder that you are not getting a whole lot of it in the air because powder is horrible for your respitory system.

∙ 14y agoSince this is not normal you should consult your doctor. Peeling and dryness of the skin can occur due to bacterial infection, dry atmosphere, wearing thongs for prolonged period of time, chaffing or could be due to using certain bathing products. Your doctor will be able to give you the most professional opinion.

Lack of stimulation will also cause dryness. If you find times that you are very lubricated but others when you are not, it is likely the lack of having "your head" into the sexual activity before your body is engaged,,,
