Why is sex painful all of a sudden?

Dear Bunmi,
For a couple of years, my boyfriend and I have always had a great sex life. Recently, though it’s become really painful for me.
Now I’m seldom in the mood for sex as I know that when he enters me it will hurt. I’ve been very stressed lately because of some emotional issues I have to deal with. Could this be causing my problem?

Dear Adaora,
If intercourse suddenly starts to hurt, it’s likely to be from physical causes though psychology can also play an important part. You need to see your doctor for a check-up to rule out any physical problems. It’s quite possible you have a vaginal infection. If your doctor discovers this then your partner might also have to get checked out by his doctor.

Dryness can also cause painful sex, so concentrate on plenty of fore-play and use a lubricant, such as KY. As you rightly suspected, sex may be making you tense. If so, take time to relax before sex. Lastly, you need to sort out any relationship issues that could be causing you to resist love-making, so sort any problems now.
