Are you lubricated enough before penetration?

Hi ophoven. The wife & I completely agree with Tish. Just wanted to add the reminder of sufficient as well. Make sure your hubby knows as much as possible when and how it hurts and openly discuss ideas/options on what you two could do differently that help avoid further pain. Oftentimes we read posts about women who keep quiet and try their best to tolerate the pain to prevent ruining the mood.

Also, please be encouraged to ask your doctor questions as well. Many report saving a simple question for the doctor as "a last resort" and don't use such a valuable option until something REALLY goes wrong.

Yes, pain can occur even when there's nothing wrong, as it can when there IS something wrong. For example, many women report the pain of having the penetration hit the cervix, but that is often a simple case of adjusting the thrusting style and not always an indication that there may be a physical "problem" at all.

Let us know if this helps. :)

above all else


Mr. Para

Another possibility for your pain is endometriosis. A symptom of this problem is painful intercourse.

Endometrial tissue migrates outside the uterus, attaching itself to other organs and areas in the pelvis and reacting to hormonal changes each month...bleeding and becoming very tender. If none of the other suggestions seem to apply, then ask your dr. to check you for that condition as well.
