Sex: What to do if penetration is painful?

Many sexual partners do not like penetration because it gives them pain instead of pleasure. It is a very recurrent evil. But what can you do about it? What should I do if I have painful penetration?

See a doctor 

Experiencing pain during sex is not normal. But it is a very recurrent pain that affects many people, especially women. According to a study of sexually active women aged 18 to 69, more than 16% of women admit to having experienced pain during penetration. This pain is called dyspareunia. 

And when you suffer from this pain, when you feel pain during sexual play, the first thing to do is to consult a doctor. You need to see a doctor and more specifically a gynecologist because he is the only specialist who can help you. He or she will be able to examine you to find out what is causing the problem and prescribe the right treatment.

Note that dyspareunia can have several causes. It can be related to vaginal dryness, a gynecological disease or an abnormality. In addition, dyspareunia can be primary or secondary. It is said to be primary if penetration has always been painful. It is said to be secondary if penetration was not painful but then became so. 

Use lubricants

To have less painful sexual intercourse, it is recommended to use lubricants. Lubricants wet the vagina to facilitate penetration. The wetter the vagina, the easier and more painless the penetration. If you suffer from dyspareunia, do not hesitate to use lubricants.

Note that there are several types of lubricants. Some are water-based and others are silicone or oil-based. For a better feeling, it is recommended to combine the water-based lubricant with a silicone or oil-based lubricant. However, do not hesitate to ask your gynecologist for advice on the type of lubricant to choose.
