Pain during intercourse

New Paths to a Fulfilling Intimate Life

Sexuality is not only an expression of our physical being but also a mirror of our emotions and well-being. It is like a delicate melody that creates joy, pleasure, and deep connections, allowing us to meet ourselves and our partners on the deepest level.

But sometimes disharmonies, such as pain during lovemaking, can disrupt this wonderful dance and throw us off rhythm. In this article, we want to address the possible causes of such discomfort. Together, we will explore ways to nurture and care for our intimate life so that every woman can experience her sexuality in full bloom again.

Vaginal dryness often occurs in women during the menopause, but also in younger women with hormonal imbalance. It can also appear after childbirth.

Vaginal dryness is caused by a lack of natural moisture in the vagina and can cause painful sensations during intercourse. The pain can be felt as burning, rubbing, or itching on the vaginal walls, and it can lead to injuries of the mucous membrane with accompanying bleeding or swelling. These injuries provide an entry point for infections and resulting secondary complaints.

Inner Balance: When Intimacy Needs Gentle Care

Sexuality should be a harmonious interplay of feelings and physical closeness. However, when physical discomfort clouds the sensual moments, it is important to listen and understand one’s own body.

Natural Moisture: The natural moisture balance of the vagina plays a crucial role during lovemaking. An imbalance can lead to discomfort such as rubbing or burning. Especially during life phases like the menopause or after childbirth, vaginal dryness can occur.

Signs from the Past: Injuries or scars in the intimate area can be testimonies of past experiences and cause pain during lovemaking.

Sensitive Areas: Conditions like vulvodynia, which leads to constant burning, or vaginismus, where the muscles contract involuntarily, can make intimacy difficult.

Inner Shield: Infections, whether from sexually transmitted diseases or inflammatory processes, can also cause pain. It is essential to heed the body's signals and seek professional help if necessary.

Natural Rhythm: Hormonal changes, especially during the menopause, can influence the experience during intercourse.

Soul in Harmony: Our psyche also plays a central role in our sexuality. Conditions such as anxiety or depression can affect the experience in the intimate area.

Touch Despite Dryness

The feeling of dryness should not cloud the enjoyment of intimate moments. It can be triggered by various life phases and hormonal changes. When vaginal dryness leads to discomfort such as burning or rubbing, this can not only be painful but also cause further issues like slight injuries. Here, for example, CANNEFF VAG SUP with its gentle formulation can help restore natural moisture and create a harmonious intimate life.

Ways to Pain-Free Intimacy

Pain during intimacy can manifest as burning, itching, or even slight bleeding. It often arises from friction due to reduced slipperiness of the mucous membrane, which can lead to small injuries. These tiny injuries can become inflamed and, in the worst case, scar. A key to preventing these complaints is moistening the mucous membrane in the vagina.

Fortunately, there are ways to ease discomfort and quickly heal these small injuries. Conscious and gentle foreplay can work wonders by increasing the natural moisture of the vagina. And if this tender play is not enough, you can assist with a moisturizing cream, a suppository, or a gentle lubricant to reduce friction. Ointments and suppositories with hyaluronic acid, for example, offer long-lasting protection compared to conventional lubricants.

But it is not only the body that suffers: pain during intimacy can also deeply affect our emotions. Feelings of fear, shame, or even sadness can arise. Such emotions can lessen the joy of intimacy, leading to further challenges in relationships. A mindful and open dialogue about these feelings is essential.

If you suffer from such pain, do not hesitate to seek professional help.

Our suppositories with hyaluronic acid and CBD (cannabidiol) can help improve the natural slipperiness of the mucous membrane and speed up the healing of small injuries.
