Absolutely! Especially Elavil, it is an anti-depressant, one of the side effects of taking anti-depressants is the vaginal dryness. If sex is painful because of the dryness, use a lubricant such as KY or Astroglide.

Yes, certain medications can alter the level of arousal, causing her to be less "wet".
