What causes vaginal pain during intercourse?

In daily life, sex can greatly relieve the stress in our lives, but many people often feel pain in the vagina during intercourse and cannot complete sexual intercourse normally. When this happens, women become very worried, fearing that they may have a serious illness. So, what causes vaginal pain during intercourse? Let’s take a closer look below.

Cervicitis is an inflammation of the cervix caused by bacterial infection. It often occurs after frequent sexual intercourse, childbirth, miscarriage or surgical injury, when bacteria invade the wound. Cervicitis can be divided into acute and chronic types. Acute cervicitis is often accompanied by acute endometritis and acute vaginitis, which manifests as increased vaginal discharge and lower abdominal pain. In severe cases, symptoms such as low back pain and fatigue may also occur. Chronic cervicitis is characterized by increased vaginal discharge, which is milky white mucus or light yellow purulent fluid, and worsens during sexual intercourse. Gynecological examination may reveal cervical erosion, hypertrophy, or cervical polyps, lacerations, etc.

Everyone should be prepared for their first sexual intercourse, especially mentally. Women should eliminate their worries and take things easy. As for men, they must be loving, considerate and caring towards women, and be as gentle as possible. Don't just care about yourself and ignore the other party and do it recklessly. Because for couples with no or little sexual experience, gentleness and consideration are the best start.

Vaginal dryness is also known as insufficient vaginal secretion. Any factors that can reduce estrogen levels and increase progesterone levels can cause vaginal dryness. For example, when some women lack sexual interest due to fatigue or health reasons, and have no passion and have to deal with it reluctantly, their sexual response is relatively slow and vaginal dryness will occur. This is called psychological vaginal dryness. Most vaginal dryness is a physiological problem. The reason is that estrogen levels will affect the blood flow to the vaginal tissue and the pH value in the vagina, which in turn affects the normal secretion of secretions.

The above is an introduction to what causes vaginal pain during intercourse. I hope it will be helpful for women to understand. There are many factors that cause vaginal pain in women during sexual intercourse. The key is to find the cause, then take effective measures to treat it, and take routine care measures. If possible, go to a regular hospital for diagnosis and treatment in time, and strive to recover as soon as possible.
