What to do if vaginal opening hurts during intercourse

Some women have problems with their genitals during intercourse, so they need to pay attention to timely diagnosis and treatment to avoid problems caused by some gynecological diseases. In particular, some women have pain in the vaginal opening during intercourse, so they need to stop intercourse immediately and receive timely treatment to avoid problems caused by worsening of the disease. So what should I do if my vaginal opening hurts during intercourse?

Causes of painful intercourse include:

1. Psychological factors: fear, tension, etc.;

2. Vaginal lubrication dysfunction: Atrophic vaginitis, diabetes, use of antihistamines, etc., reduce vaginal secretion;

3. Endometriosis, vulvitis, vaginitis, cervicitis, vaginal swelling, adhesion, vaginospasm, urethral caruncle, pelvic tissue lesions, etc. It is recommended to go to the hospital for examination. If it is pathological, active symptomatic treatment is required.

Pain at the vaginal opening after intercourse may be related to gynecological inflammations such as candidal vaginitis and vulvitis. In this case, it is recommended to flush the vulva and vagina with alkaline liquid to change the acidity and alkalinity of the vagina, which is not conducive to the growth of fungi.

After flushing, insert nystatin tablets or suppositories into the vagina, 100,000 to 200,000 units each time, once every night, for 10 to 14 days as a course of treatment. Apply 3% clotrimazole ointment on the vulva for better results. In stubborn cases, oral ketoconazole or clotrimazole can be used to eliminate intestinal Candida, or topical miconazole can be used.

During treatment, sexual intercourse is prohibited, and underwear should be changed and disinfected every day. Check again after the menstrual period, and three consecutive negative results are considered cured.

If women experience the above problems, they should be aware that it is likely caused by vaginal infection, so they need to pay attention to timely treatment to ensure safety and avoid worsening of the disease, especially if this problem is likely caused by gynecological diseases. Finally, I wish the patients a speedy recovery.
