ok lately I have been experiencing a lot of pain during intercourse, I haven't really thought much about it until recently though. Im currently on birth control and have not missed any pills. I usually start on either the last or first wednesday of the month, but I started today (tuesday) which is really strange for me. I guess my question is..does this sound like anything or is it just my period being a little off this month?? Id appriciate any and all feedback! thanks =]

There are many causes of painful sex including vaginal or urinary infection, lack of lubrication, tumors, irritants (like spermicide), sexual disease, physical abnormalities, previous surgery, sexual trauma, repair of episiotomy or tear, vaginismus, vulvar vestibulitis, endometriosis, tipped uterus, and skin thickenings that can divide the female opening or injury to the vulva or vagina, such as childbirth, rape or sexual abuse. Chronic pain during sex may be caused by adhesions following episiotomy or plastic repair of the vagina. Endometriosis, vaginitis, pelvic inflammatory disease and radiation therapy sometimes result in chronic painful intercourse due to adhesion formation at the round or broad ligaments, uterus or other structures. Please see your doctor for an exam and testing to determine what the cause may be. You can read more about it here

If you haven't been taking your pill very long your body still may be adjusting to the pill. There have been a few times where I have started a day or two early and even a day or two late with the pill...not very often, but it has happened. Stress can be a major cause in this as well. If you are having pain during sex you may want to try using KY for lubricant, that usually does the trick. If it continues I would talk to your primary doctor to see what else may be the problem.

It sounds like you are just a little bit dry, try a water-based lubricant (do not use petroleum jelly it ruins condoms) like KY and you should be very comfortable.

You should go to the doctor for a checkup. Pain is not normal.

Whenver you are on the pill, you will have hormonal changes.
