Painful Intercourse

Posted by myjourney1979 @myjourney1979, Aug 20, 2012

I started having the pain before I started having kids. The pain is when my husband inserts his penis. I feel a lot of pressure and it is very painful when he does deep penetration. Now mind you this use to not bother me. I enjoy having rough intercourse. Well as time went on, after having 2 children, I found out that I had endometerosis. So at the age of 29, I decided to have a full hyst, thinkng that would solve my problem but unfortunately it didn't. I am gettting very flustrated because I am not able to enjoy my sex life. I have been to the gyn to see if they could help me and all they want to do is send me to a pain clinic (not). I am hoping someone out there has experience and can relate to what I am going through. Please Help!!

No surgeries other than after my second child was born. The area between the vagina and anus was pretty torn up and had to go back for surgery. I was told my area was very short between the two. However, it is not until the past year that I have been experiencing pain and burning with intercourse.

Aging also reduces our femaie hormones which lubricate the vagina. Often referred to as 'dry vagina'. This can make intercourse 'painful' . Your doctor or health professiona; can prescribe a 'hormone' cream/ointment that can be inserted into the vagina on a weekly (or more) interval which will improve the natural moisture and lubrication in the vagina

@myjourney1979 I hear you! Post menopause hasn't helped and hormone replacement not an option for family issues with breast cancer. So lubricant can be helpful if no allergic reaction and I take a pill called Fem Flora from Swanson's Vitamins which helps some but not cure all. Keep us posted on any updated information on this topic.
