Sorry to be blunt!
I find my sex life not as enjoyable, and painful.
Does any body have any suggestions with dealing with this?
I actually dread sex these days it's so painful. I've wanted to ask this question for a while. I took pain killers, we've tried different positions and lubricant. I'm not sure if anyone else gets this, it feels like my insides are so tight that it's very difficult to manage penetration and I get very dry the pain is so bad I cry almost every time. My sex drive in the last few years has become almost none exist but as we're still trying for a baby, I have noticed that during ovulation it's worse than usual.
I understand your frustration. Loads and loads of foreplay sometimes helps me, I really need to be in the mood for it these days. Don't force it.
I have maid what i am calling an endo pack i have tylenol in it( ibuprofen would most likely help more since it is an nsaid) to take before sex. I am also starting to map out the pain every day to see if there is maybe a better time of month to have sex over others. Ovulation week tends to be the worse time for me to have it so far. Being able to discuss what is happening with my sexual partner helps me relax during sex as well. I also have menstrual pain therapy heat packs i think there by thermacare to help re leave some of the pain. It can be so hard to relax during sex knowing there can be pain and so many other things from having sex. Communication and your partner understanding can help alot with the anxiety of having sex.
