Symptoms of discomfort during sex
Discomfort during sex in women can manifest itself in two ways:
- Burning and pain occur on the surface of the mucosa. In this case, a woman may suffer from discomfort in the labia, urethra, clitoris, and vagina. The sensations can vary from itching to pain (like touching damaged skin).
- The pain is deep, proximity makes you experience discomfort in the area of the internal genital organs or lower back, sides, abdomen. The sensations are aching, shooting, pressing, bursting, cramping.
Gynecological factors
"First time"
Discomfort, cutting, acute pain during the first sexual intercourse are normal and should not be a cause for concern. Discomfort may occur the next few times, but if it does not go away later, the girl is advised to visit a gynecologist.
STI
Among the diseases that provoke discomfort during sex there may be infections: chlamydia, candidiasis, trichomoniasis, ureaplasmosis, syphilis, etc. Moreover, in this case, you are endangering your partner, so you should under no circumstances delay contacting a gynecologist.
Inflammatory processes
Also, discomfort and pain during sex are provoked by inflammatory diseases: vaginitis, vulvitis. As a rule, these pathologies manifest themselves not only by itching, but also by a change in the nature of the discharge: its color, smell, and consistency change. Extramenstrual bleeding and menstrual irregularities are possible. Inflammatory diseases require thorough treatment under the supervision of a gynecologist.
Polyps
If a woman has polyps on the cervix, when the penis penetrates deeply into the vagina, they can be injured, which leads to pain and bleeding after coitus.
Lack of local immunity
When the vaginal microflora changes due to diseases, antibiotics, malnutrition, stress and other factors, diseases such as bacterial vaginosis and cervicitis can develop against this background. In this case, the unpleasant sensations will be concentrated both inside the vagina and outside it.
HPV (condylomas)
If a woman has condylomas, they are mechanically damaged due to friction of the penis. Violation of their integrity leads not only to painful sensations during and after intimacy, but to local bleeding.

Endometriosis
Pathological growth of the endometrium can also cause pain after coitus. Patients with this pathology report sharp, rolling pains in the lower third of the abdomen.
Inflammation of the ovaries, cysts
In this case, the pain is localized on the right or left, less often on both sides. Discomfort can be felt both during sex and postcoital.
Myomas, uterine fibroids
If you have fibroids or fibroids, the patient may experience nagging, aching pain after sex.
Recovery after childbirth
Doctors usually do not recommend having sex after childbirth for 1.5 months. This period is important for the full restoration of the body, including damaged cervix, vagina, and the entrance to the vagina. If after a longer period, when you resume sexual activity, the pain persists, you should see a gynecologist.
Mucosal atrophy
Age-related changes thin the mucous tissue, it becomes drier. As a result, coitus without the use of lubricant can be uncomfortable.
Insufficient discharge
An insufficient volume of natural vaginal secretions to ensure comfortable penetration of the penis inside can cause a sensation of friction and pain - and the pain can continue several days after sexual intercourse. The solution to this problem is the use of water-based lubricants. From the point of view of gynecological possibilities, the doctor may suggest that you eliminate the cause of dryness by restoring the moisture of the mucous tissue using biorevitalization.
Causes of “orgasmic” spasms
Sharply contracting muscles, shaking legs, trembling fingertips... Do you feel familiar? Many women experience cramps immediately after orgasm, and although there are no official statistics on this issue, the phenomenon is far from uncommon. Why is this happening?
- Your heart is beating so fast that your body begins to tremble.
Surely you have encountered a similar reaction of the body at least once in your life. Your heart rate quickens and you begin to tremble uncontrollably, as if you were frozen to death or...very scared. In a stressful situation, the heart begins to work with such force that blood runs through the veins several times faster, allowing you to better respond to the threat.
Of course, orgasm has nothing to do with danger. Except for the threat of terrible pleasure. However, the body's reaction turns out to be ridiculously similar to that described above - natural chemicals are released into the blood, the heart speeds up, and as a result, the female body is seized with convulsions.
- Your muscles simply could not withstand the prolonged tension.
There is a category of women who need to strongly strain their muscles to achieve orgasm. From the outside it looks very passionate: they crush the sheets in their fists, grab their partner’s hair, sexually squeeze their own breasts... Although, as practice shows, the muscles of the thighs contract more often than others. They are easier to control and are located very close to the main erogenous zone. However, tense muscles are not always a voluntary reaction. Some may not even notice it until they relax.
Actually, it is the latter that causes convulsions. You tighten your thigh muscles, which leads to increased blood flow and, accordingly, increased sensitivity. In other words, to orgasm. And then the tension suddenly goes away, and your body begins to twitch, like after that first workout in the gym when you overdid it “a little.”
- Do you think orgasm only affects your bikini area? Whatever the case.
It often happens that orgasm spreads to the whole body. What happens during orgasm? That's right, the muscles around your genitals tense and relax non-stop, resulting in sharp contractions. Now imagine that the affected area becomes wider and your entire body, or at least the muscles of its lower part, begins to contract in a similar way. So much for cramps.
- Your brain may have experienced a system failure.
How is this possible? In fact, it is not so difficult to disable the brain, and the amount of pleasant sensations that befall a person during sex and approaching orgasm often becomes so impressive that the nervous system, accustomed to reacting in a certain way, simply cannot stand it.
For example, if you are in danger, your body's first reaction will be to move you away from the threat, be it a pack of wild dogs or a hot curling iron that you accidentally grabbed at the wrong end. The signals that the body gives to our brain during orgasm are not very different from danger signals, but in this case there are much more of them. What can you do if you are overwhelmed with work? That's right, just contract convulsively and tremble, simultaneously hoping to cope with the overload.
Anatomically determined causes of discomfort during sex
Physiologically, partners may not be suitable for each other. Discomfort occurs when the sizes of the penis and vagina do not match: their length, diameter. If the difference is critical, during coitus the mucous membrane is injured and microtears appear. If the mucous membrane is injured regularly, chronic inflammation will occur. Injuries in the genital area increase the risk of infection entering the body and negatively affect the state of local immunity.
