A little pain in intercourse three months after cervical cancer surgery can be alleviated by strengthening the physique and improving the sex life style.
After cervical cancer surgery, it takes about three months for women to recover the surgical wounds gradually. If the physical condition is weak and the vaginal stump is not fully recovered, pain will arise during sexual life. Therefore, it is necessary to improve physical fitness and strengthen the physique by resting more, avoiding labor and strengthening nutrition, etc. Post-operative review shows good recovery before starting sexual life.
In addition, cervical cancer surgery will remove part of the vagina, making the vagina shorter for women, which will also lead to vaginal pain and discomfort if too much force is exerted during sex.
Some patients will have their ovaries removed at the same time as the surgery, resulting in insufficient estrogen secretion and reduced vaginal secretion, which can cause pain due to dryness when rubbing. More caressing before sex and the use of water-based lubricants, as well as gentle movements during sex, can reduce pain.
It is suggested that the pain and discomfort in coitus three months after cervical cancer surgery may also have other conditions, and it is recommended to come to the hospital to check and exclude the abnormalities, so as not to miss the condition.
