What Causes Prolonged Dark Menstrual Bleeding And Painful Intercourse?
Hi , I think I may be having an ectopic pregnancy. My last menstral cycle was June 27th first day of my last. I was then about two and a half weeks late on getting it when August came around. When I did get it for two days it was very light spotting, then turned into a full menstral cycle. Now its still lasting longer than normal with dark brown blood. I feel so dizzy out of nowhere all of the time. Prior to this I was in so much pain during intercourse. When missing my period I was having all the symptoms of pregnancy. What do you think? I currently do not have health insurance because I can t afford it in my state I m only 23 with not a lot of help. Please help I m very concerned!

Hello,
Your wife might have a rigid hymen or vaginismus. This can also be due to anxiety. Proper relaxation exercise is important. Never hurry. There are certain things you can try.
1. Breathing exercise and yoga should be practised. Breath in and out while penetration.
2. Counselling with a sexologist will help. First insert a lubricated finger of the wife intop vagina and continue for a week. Then repeat it with 2 lubricated fingers of wife. When she is comfortable repeat it with your husband's finger, first with 1 finger and repeat with 2 fingers. Each process should take atleast 5 days gap.
3. When she is comfortable,after foreplay and apply lubricant and intercourse can be tried.. During the process, proper relaxation is required.
4. Avoid stress. Don't be in hurry..
The lubricants would be K-Y jelly, Vagisil Intimate Moisturizer, or Replens Vaginal Mosturizer or plain vaseline jelly.
If unsuccessful get a vaginal examination with your doctor to rule out any infection or problems.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
