Treatment for Painful Sex | Santa Fe
Pregnancy and delivery, weight fluctuations, and the hormonal decline of menopause – as well as certain medical procedures such as hysterectomy or chemotherapy – can cause the vagina to become loose, dry, thin, and/or lacking in sensation. The labia can also become saggy, enlarged, wrinkled and/or distended, as well, over time. These changes can cause itching and burning, pain during sex, decreased sex drive, bladder leaks, and lack of sexual pleasure for a woman and her partner.
As many as 75% of women will experience pain during sex at some point in their lifetime. Drs.
