What should I do if the vaginal opening hurts after sex?

Patient's question:

Please ask the expert:
I and my husband both feel vaginal pain after sex, but it improves after a while. It only gets a bit better for a few days in the middle of the menstrual period.

Doctor's answer:

Hello: Pain after sexual activity is often caused by inflammation. Based on your symptoms, it is closely related to cervical erosion. The main symptoms of cervical erosion include increased vaginal discharge, viscous discharge, bloody discharge, lower back pain, abdominal pain, and post-coital bleeding. The risk of cancer transformation is high. It is recommended that you be diagnosed with the severity of the condition and receive symptomatic treatment. Mild cases can be treated with medication under the guidance of a doctor, while moderate to severe cases require physical or surgical treatment. Options include LEEP or coagulation minimally invasive treatment. Both LEEP and coagulation minimally invasive treatments offer the advantage of not damaging the cervix during a single treatment, thus not affecting future fertility. However, compared to LEEP, coagulation technology has lower power. Although the treatment time is slightly longer (around half an hour), it allows for more precise cervical repair, making it particularly suitable for women who have not given birth. It is currently the safest and most effective ideal treatment method.
