Your typical wicked fantasy definitely doesn’t contain pain when it comes to having amazing intercourse. And we don’t mean a minor moan, but rather something that is clearly painful. Because, while intercourse can be a variety of things, it should never be painful. Something is clearly wrong if it is becoming painful....CONTINUE READING
According to a post on the Healthline website, the following are some reasons why your vagina may be painful after getting intimate with your partner.
1. It could be due to stress.
Many physiological systems, including hormones, can be affected by stress. This can lead to low lubrication of the private parts. This dryness can cause the skin of your vagina to burn and feel painful when you have intercourse without the correct lubrication. To make the experience as delightful as possible, lube up and add extra foreplay to the mix.
2. It might be because of your sex toys.
Even though these toys are now getting popular, they may be the cause of a burning sensation after having intercourse. Since they are made from different materials, the materials may cause irritation.
To be safe, make sure you read the information on the toy before purchasing it. You may be able to solve the problem of pain after intercourse if you choose the right toy.
3. It could be the result of grooming.
If you use something to eliminate pubic hair, be aware that it can irritate your skin. Although you are technically removing hair from your vulva rather than your real vagina, burning in the surrounding area is highly uncomfortable, especially during intercourse.
Razor burn causes skin irritation, which can be uncomfortable during intimate friction. If you’re having trouble with this, try shaving with the path of the hair rather than against it. You should also wash your razor frequently to avoid clogging it with shaving gel and hair, which will dull the blades.
4. It could be due to the underwear you are wearing.
Thongs from your underwear can also be the cause of irritation and inflammation of the opening of the vagina. Not only is this inconvenient and unpleasant in and of itself, but prolonged inflammation can also lead to bacterial overgrowth, which can result in a vaginal or urinary infection.
In fact, this is one of the most common causes of vaginal burning after sex. Furthermore, fecal microorganisms could be transferred to your vaginal area via the thong. This increases the chances of infection.
5. It could be due to the detergent you use.
The ingredients used in some laundry detergents can also be the cause of painful vaginal after intercourse. Some of the ingredients that can directly cause skin irritation or an allergic reaction include the solvents, emulsifiers, dyes, surfactants, enzymes, fragrances, preservatives, parabens, and other chemicals used in making detergent.
To eliminate the burning sensation on your vagina from the detergent, you can rub your skin with shea butter or aloe gel, or see a doctor.
