Patient's question:
What is the reason for the pain during intimacy with my husband? My menstrual cycle has been irregular since October 2011, with periods occurring infrequently and lasting two or three months apart. This time, after five months without a period, I noticed pain during intimacy.Doctor's answer:
Pain during sexual activity is first considered to be due to improper sexual practices, followed by gynecological inflammation. Chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, endometritis, pelvic congestion syndrome, cervicitis, adnexitis, and other conditions may all cause these symptoms. If the first reason is ruled out, it is recommended to visit a hospital for a gynecological examination. Once the specific cause is determined, appropriate medications should be selected based on the type of pathogen infection. Additionally, drink more water, get adequate rest, avoid spicy and hard foods, and refrain from sexual activity during the treatment period.
