Suggest Treatment For Pain During Intercourse

default
Posted on Mon, 1 Sep 2014
Question: Hello, a week ago I began experiencing excruciating pain during insertion when I have intercourse. It's so severe we can't have sex.
We were able to have sex while I was on the birth control pill, although I had no sex drive. I was on the pill for 2 years, 7 months.
When he tries to insert his penis I get a very sharp pain, not in my vaginal walls but it feels as though my urethral opening is being pulled in and stretched into my vagina. I do have a low sitting urethra and it sits right above my vaginal opening.
I stopped taking my pill on the 19th of July. At the end of my period I contracted a yeast infection in which I properly treated.
I am not swollen or inflamed, but it feels as though his penis is pushing my urethral opening into my vagina, causing a very sharp pain.
My mother had endometriosis if that information may lead you to a better informed diagnosis.
I did not suffer any pain while on my birth control but am now unable to have sex because of the pain I experience upon insertion.

Hello, I have been thinking the same for a couple days now.
What are my chances of being able to conceive if I am diagnosed with endometriosis, as well as treatment for pain during intercourse in order to be able to conceive?

Hi,

If you are diagnosed with endometriosis, laparoscopic surgery can be performed to remove endometriosis.
