Pain During Any Type Of Sexual Arousal
A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭

This post is gonna have tmi but when I was around 16 (?) I found that when I masturbated and reached climax I would end up crippling stabbing like pain. This still happens now. Now that I have a boyfriend, the same thing happens when I reach climax or even when I'm just turned on. It's worsening with time. I've never been diagnosed with endo, but after an ultrasound nothing was found.

I've definitely had this, and experienced bleeding too. I always knew I had endo from the time I heard about it at about age 12. I tried researching this symptom when it popped up in the past few years and there's not a lot of people talking about it. I discussed it with my gyno and it's super common with endo, orgasm triggers the same muscles used during our period so the cramps are kind of like aftershocks.

Yes I have had this experience!!! It took years to get diagnosed, I paid to see a fertility specialist privately and during investigations I was diagnosed. This seems to have cleared up for me, only since having a baby though, which I know isn't possible for everyone, and isn't a cure for everyone. It was absolutely a symptom for me, don't worry about advocating for yourself and getting other opinions. Good luck.

I don't have sex because the last time I tried I felt sick with pains in my stomach within seconds... I am also trying to figure out if I have endo so I understand...

You should look into Vaginimus. I have a lot of pain as well as it turns out Endo wasn't the only culprit. The specialist I saw suggested botox injection to the vaginal muscles.
