Sex hurts : (

All of a sudden sex has been hurting me so bad. It feels like a burning sensation when my boyfriend pushes in. I had a uti and finished all the medicine on Tuesday of this week, and I started my period on Monday of this week (late for me, I'm still having small spotting now and some cramping). I am also on Yasmin and was on anti-biotics earlier in the month for a cold. We tried vaginal sex last week and it was really dry so thats why i thought it hurt. We tried it again last night, and I know I was really wet because I still had some bleeding and still it hurt so bad that my boyfriend felt so guilty about it and had to stop. Why is sex hurting so much??? We have been doing anal lately because vaginal sex is too painful. I love anal, but I do want vaginal again. What could be the problem?? HELP!

Thanks

hey guys thanks for all the help. i went to my gyn yesterday, and he checked me out and i have a yeast infection. he said it is a very bad yeast infection, and that is what is causing the pain. he gave me 1 pill to take and i have cream for three nights. i have to go back to see him in 3 weeks to make sure it all cleared up.

It's the uti and the fact that you aren't quite over that yet.  UTI's are pretty serious so you have to take care of that first before having sex again or else you're just going to keep getting UTI's.  Remember to drink cranberry juice and lots of water to keep flushing out your system.

Hope you feel better soon.

Yeah im positive that im not with the relationship. Our sex life has always been amazing, up to the point where I got my uti on Jan 12, now ever since that it burns during sex. Im going to my GYN today, I think I may have a bladder infection because I keep going to the bathroom alot.

No, i have no issues with my boyfriend at all. I love him very much, and I love having sex with him. We are very close, and any issues we have we always talk about it so we can fix things and make everything better. I'm not sure what is going on with my body. This all started after I got a uti, and my doctor said no sex for 10 days but we tried having sex on the 6th day but had to stop because it was too dry and hurt. So then we started doing anal and from that day I can't stop thinking about doing anal. Could that be my problem?

the problem is that it doesnt hurt all he time. it's just when having sex. it doesnt burn when i pee, so i dunno. i have been dating my bf for almost 1 year. we both dont have std's i was my bf's first and i have been checked out many of times for stds and always clean. i think maybe my uti didnt clear up. we are going to try and have sex again tomorrow night and see from there. if it still hurts i will check with my doctor/

i would def say that either your uti hasn't fully healed or that you have a yeast infection. sometimes antibiotics can actually cause you to get a yeast infection. it happens to me almost every time i take antibiotics. refrain from having sex until you get it figured out bc if your uti hasnt fully healed, it could develop into a kidney infection and that is extremely dangerous and painful.

also, just so you know, a lot of birth control pills are effected by antibiotics. depending on what kind you take and what kind of antibitoics you are on, some doctors reccomend using a backup birth control methos until you have finished your antibiotics.

I would say the UTI has a little to do with it.  Go to the pharmacy and buy one of those yeast infection kits, I am not sure what they are called, but it is some sort of kit you can use to test to see what type of infection you may have.

I had an old BF that I was allergic to.  Seriously allergic to his sperm.  Could this be your problem?  How long have you been dating him?  

Have you been tested for STDs?
