Patient's question:
Because I wanted to have sex with my husband on the second day after my period, during the process, my vagina felt a bit painful, but it went away after a while. The past two days, my vagina has been a bit painful and uncomfortable, with slightly increased discharge that is transparent and without any abnormalities. I have some lower back pain. It's the 10th day after my period. I have mild cervical erosion. Are these symptoms normal? Is it possible that I have a vaginal infection?Can I get pregnant? Can I get pregnant?
First follow-up question: I also occasionally have symptoms like dysuria. Can these symptoms heal on their own without treatment?
Doctor's answer:
There are many causes of sexual intercourse pain, including various diseases of the reproductive and urinary systems, congenital deformities, and more. In the absence of organic lesions, sexual intercourse pain is primarily caused by insufficient vaginal lubrication. The reasons for inadequate sexual arousal mainly include two aspects: first, insufficient preparation for intercourse, such as inadequate foreplay actions like hugging, kissing, and caressing; second, sexual anxiety, fear, lack of concentration, and depression or unhappiness brought by work and life. Sexual intercourse pain is usually accompanied by clear gynecological diseases, so a detailed gynecological examination is necessary, including speculum examination, vaginal examination, and, if necessary, a three-point examination. Only after ruling out gynecological and systemic organic-related diseases can a diagnosis be confirmed and treatment proceed.
