Sex

Is it normal being unable to continue one whole session of intercourse without screaming from pain and bleeding, just upon touching the vaginal opening ?! Some doctors said it's vaginismus but that doesn't cause bleeding

Ok I'll start with my story. Married exactly a year ago and coming from a conservative religion & country I never tried sex before. All our trials failed not because am a middle eastern green and afraid girl, but simply bleeding stops everything. Let alone the unbearable pain. It's like passing over open wound with stitches. My vagina is killing me. Ironically, only the left side of the vaginal entrance. When I speak about it, female friends go like "how can u even tell ur right from left side of vagina?!" I say "coz the right feels so right and the left is truly abnormal"

Been to at least 10 gynos. They all prescribe tranquilizers and local anesthetic! Ignoring the fact that I freaking bleed! Isn't that a sufficient proof of sth that's broken inside? No alarms whatsoever? I need to be further checked for God's sake..

Finally one of these doctors discovered fibroids along the vagina. I underwent a minor surgery with stitches down there and believed to have this end at that point.

First trial after 2 months of recovery, result: same pain and bleeding. Only my opening seems less tighter from operating (yay)

It's been months and I have bleeding disorders. At last discovered Endo by Jan 2016; chocolate cysts and interstitial fibroids all over abdomen and Douglas pouch. Scheduled for lap in May 2016.

Apart from my sickness, I don't mind any bad diagnosis, I just wish to more forward with my life! It's really affecting my marriage and we lost hope. Plus i grew a complex. I'd need a mental therapy to accept opening my legs with no fear of blood shed and rape like pain.

All I wish for, that this vaginal pain is just a scar that could be removed or treated. That am a normal woman with sound anatomy. That this shall pass and my confidence would be regained and retained again. That my husband's love and support and understanding won't fade out .. That I live a pain free life even for just a while and then come what may.
