Menopause Introduction:

Many women report occasional pain or discomfort with vaginal penetration (of a finger, tampon, penis, etc.). Others experience severe pain with every episode of penetration. This is called “dyspareunia”. There are different kinds of pain that a woman can experience during sex play or intercourse. Some of these symptoms can be relieved easily with the use of lubricants, while others must be treated medically. This channel focuses on normalizing the experience of pain during certain sexual behaviors, with the accompanying reinforcement that there are definitely steps a woman can take to eliminate the pain. Above all, if any kind of intercourse or penetration is painful, a woman should stop this behavior immediately and seek treatment, so she can avoid potential physical or emotional harm.
