Why does it hurt the stomach after having sex, and there's a feeling like needing to have a bowel movement?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Hello, most cases of abdominal pain after sexual intercourse in women are physiological. During intercourse, the male penis's thrusting can cause intense stimulation to the female vagina, abdominal cavity, and pelvic organs. At orgasm, the vagina and pelvic organs become congested, and tissues contract or spasm, leading to abdominal pain. Sexual arousal may mask the pain, making it more noticeable after intercourse. This is a common occurrence, usually tolerable, and the pain typically resolves on its own over time.
