Why is sex painful in one spot of my vagina?

I was having the exact same problem. My boyfriend and I seemed to have found a way around it.

get on the edge of your bed, in a doggy style position. make sure you’re arching your back. spread your legs quite a bit, so that you’re low on the bed, and not with your knees and legs straight (because that will make it hurt). lean your body back a bit while he stands behind. the key part to this now hurting is your partner spreading your butt cheeks apart. not too much to where it’s hurting you. make sure you and him are plenty lubricated. with spit at least. it might be a dull pain for a split second but once you start going it disappears completely.
stay safe!

My husband and I have been married 23years which we have had great sex but in the last 5 yrs I have had horrible pain. With lidocaine I can have sex without hurting to much. My doctor wants to do surgery but my lung doctor won't allow it. I really need another solution . Any help appreciated.

Ladies please check for cysts as well.

I have the same problem and I don't know what to do. My doctor is making me try creams and antibiotics but nothing works. We are trying to abstain but after two weeks we tried again and the pain came back. Its like this spot towards the bottom of the vagina just inside a little bit.

I have the exact same situation and I know it's not a lack of lubrication or even a "mental" thing. I'm very comfortable with my partner, have had 2 healthy exams, switched my birth control several times and it only gets worse but the doctor says I'm fine. Please let me know if you had any luck finding a solution!

Dyspareunia is the medical term for painful intercourse. New pain after previously pain-free intercourse is one symptom.

Insufficient lubrication is a common cause. Other causes are injury or irritation, reaction to birth control products, like latex condoms or two conditions, vaginismus and vestibulitis.

Deep pain usually occurs with deep penetration. Uterine fibroids, cystitis and ovarian cysts can cause pain.

Your pelvic floor muscles are very sensitive to stress. Stress can lead to painful intercourse.

I understand the limitations of getting proper medical treatment when you do not have health insurance. (A sad commentary of life in America).

Ideally, a thorough medical history, pelvic examination, pelvic ultrasound or laparoscopy are done to make a diagnosis.

Treatment option begin with changing positions (trying being on top of your husband), try longer foreplay to help stimulate your natural lubrication and delay penetration until you feel fully aroused.

Medical intervention include testing to find the underlying condition (is the cause an infection), desensitization therapy ( Kegel or pelvic floor exercises to decrease pain with intercourse) and sex therapy.

I hope this helps,
