What are the reasons for vaginal pain during sexual intercourse?

Patient's question:

Medical Description: Over the past two months, sexual intercourse has caused pain inside the vagina. Sometimes it's very painful, and sometimes it's a bit better, but it always feels uncomfortable.
History of Treatment and Effect: I have had vaginitis and cervical cysts, but they were not completely cured.
Help Needed: What could be the cause of this? What tests should be done when seeking medical attention?

Doctor's answer:

The causes of female sexual pain are many and can be categorized as psychological or organic. Psychological causes are due to a lack of sexual knowledge or mental tension during intercourse; organic causes are generally caused by infections or inflammation in the reproductive system, such as vaginitis, cervicitis, or pelvic inflammatory disease. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for relevant examinations to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. It may be caused by gynecological inflammation, primarily due to bacterial infections, which can lead to symptoms of sexual pain. Symptomatic treatment can be administered, and it is advised to first visit a formal hospital for examination to confirm the cause and receive treatment under the guidance of a doctor. Attention should be paid to local hygiene, and underwear should be washed and changed frequently to avoid cross-infection.
