Women are highly sensitive in the genital area. They react even to the slightest touch. Although most of us do not feel pain while having sex, there is still a problem. It happens that pain occurs in close proximity to intimate organs and complicates life not only during sex, but also after it, causing unpleasant sensations when urinating. What are the causes of pain, how to deal with it? Discuss?
Too much stress
Very often the cause of the problem is vaginismus. This disease has a psychoneurotic nature, is directly related to the inner mood and psychological state of a woman. Nervous environment associated with the presence of constant tension, anxiety and fear can completely deprive the woman of the ability to enjoy sex. A woman suffering from vaginismus is usually so tense that the walls of her vagina narrow as much as possible. This makes it impossible for a normal sexual intercourse or even a gynecological examination with a doctor. A constant problem is a complete lack of lubrication, which causes pain. And this despite the fact that a woman can herself want intimacy, wait for her, but not be able to get rid of the pain. During sex, there is always discomfort.
What to do? Before sex, try to relax and rest. If the internal tension is too high, then drink tea with melissa or take a sedative. Try to breathe deeply, focusing on breathing. It is known that the body and mind are interrelated. When you are nervous, your breathing speeds up.
Activate internal reserves. Breathe slowly and deeply, resulting in a general relaxation. It is also important in intimate situations to provide pleasure and relaxation for yourself and for a partner. Take part in caresses, do an erotic massage to each other, react to embraces.
Not enough estrogen
Pain during sex can be associated with vaginal dryness. Women suffer from it especially acute during menopause. Lack of lubrication makes it difficult and sometimes impossible to have a sexual intercourse, which causes pain and discomfort during sex. You do not need to think that a woman only during the menopause suffers from the dryness of the vagina. It happens also with a chronic infection and when a woman has a hormonal background, regardless of age. Dryness of the vagina can occur if you are very tired, or when unconsciously you have no desire to have sex.
What to do? Moisten the vagina additionally. There are moisturizers in the form of jelly or gel pH-neutral for the genitals. If you have a constant problem of vaginal dryness, you should have lubricants, moisturizing creams that will gently and safely ease your intimate life. If the reason for the lack of estrogen, you can resort to hormone therapy.
Inadequate hygiene
Pain and discomfort during sex can also indicate vaginal infections - bacterial or viral. They make the walls of the vagina or vulva more delicate and more vulnerable to any injuries. It is for this reason that a woman can experience pain. If the pain persists during the whole sexual intercourse, be sure to make an appointment with a gynecologist.
What to do? Be sure to go to the gynecologist and make sure that there are no signs of disease. Do not start sexual infections! They can flow into a chronic form, and then the cure will not take weeks, but years.
If you are not sick, learn how to properly implement the hygiene of the genitals. Use special detergents with the addition of lactic acid bacteria, which is natural for the flora of the vagina. The use of lactic acid bacteria is important and necessary, especially after antibiotic treatment.
