Burning Sensation During Sex

[Ali08]

I have nearly always had a burning sensation during sex. It does seem to come and go.  At times it is very intense and even burns for awhile after sex.  Sometimes, however it is almost nonexistent.  I went to the doctor and all she could come up with was a lack of lubrication, however, no amount of lubrication even lessens the pain.  It is a very deep pain, not on the vaginal lips.  I am on the NuvaRing and while it is supposed to be hypoallergenic, I am concerned that it is causing irritation.  Has anyone else experienced similar problems?  If so, what was it diagnosed as and what was the treatment?  I really love my NuvaRing and am praying it is not the cause.

I've had this same issue, I went to the gynecologist on separate occasions because sometimes it seems to be too much to handle and they said I had a yeast infection and prescribed a vaginal cream. However, the pain has still continued. If you have symptoms of itching and an ordor, which not everyone gets, you might have a yeast infection.

Your next best bet may be to go and see a gynecologist. Doctors are very educated about general health, but gynecologists specialize in the female anatomy.

Also, try eating yogurt and drinking cranberry juice more regularly, as they are supposed to be especially good for helping your vagina maintain balance (and therefore good functioning). Good luck.
