Pain during sex can happen for different reasons, e.g. in the setting of prior pelvic surgery, or being new to sex. It's important to talk to a doctor if you're worried.
Pain during sex can be caused by different things. Some people feel pain because of past medical procedures like surgery. This can happen before or after the surgery. Others might feel pain because they are having sex for the first time. It is normal to have different feelings about this, and sometimes it can hurt.
Research shows that pain during sex is something many people experience, and it can be different for everyone. If you are feeling pain, it is important to talk to a doctor. They can help you understand what may be causing the pain and what you can do about it.
