Why does it hurt when you have sex for the first time after a cesarean section?

Women who have had a cesarean section can generally resume sexual life after 42 days. At this time, as long as they pay attention to hygiene during sexual life, it will not cause adverse effects. However, many women experience vaginal pain when they resume intercourse for the first time, which will affect women's sexual desire and the quality of their sexual life. So, why will it hurt during the first intercourse after a cesarean section?

Often, there will be a feeling of pain during the first intercourse after a cesarean section. This is because the estrogen level in the woman's body has not been restored after giving birth, resulting in the symptom of insufficient female secretion, which will cause vaginal dryness. During intercourse, the direct friction between the vagina and the penis will cause pain. Therefore, in order to improve this symptom, men must have enough foreplay time with their wives. If it is not good, they can prepare some lubricants in advance and apply them to the private parts and the glans of the penis before intercourse to promote lubrication, so there will be no obvious discomfort.

Women feel pain during their first intercourse after a cesarean section, which is also related to sexual apathy. After giving birth, women will focus more on taking care of and feeding their children, and because they have no sex life for a long time from pregnancy to delivery, they are prone to sexual apathy and have no desire for sex. Therefore, women's secretions during intercourse will be relatively less, and in this case, sexual intercourse again will feel pain. At this time, men should have more confidence in women and have sex at the right time and in the right place, which will relatively have a better effect.

The man should spend some time caressing the woman when having sex for the first time after a cesarean section. This will increase the woman's vaginal secretions, which will make it less likely to feel dry and painful, and will affect the woman's feelings and expectations for sexual life. It is very important to clean the genitals of both parties before having sex to prevent adverse conditions such as intrauterine infection.
