Dyspareunia is more common in women than in men. • Discovering the underlying reason for the pain depends upon if the pain occurs before, during or after intercourse. Causes can range from physical to emotional factors. Potential causes include STDs, abnormalities in the female genital tract or ingestion of certain medications. Treatment varies dependent upon why the patient suffers from Dyspareunia. • Medicine or therapy may be needed if the cause is infection or emotional, respectively. In some cases, at home remedies such as a hot water bottle and hot baths before or after intercourse can provide the relief the patient needs. Communicating and assuring both individuals involved are comfortable and ready can also reduce the pain. If intercourse is still painful, then patients can look into alternatives such as mutual masturbation, kissing, among other options. • Diagnosing Dyspareunia would require a detailed medical history and a pelvic exam. In rare cases, if the attending physician deems necessary, other tests may also be required. • You can see a more detailed review of Dyspareunia in the above video provided by healthery.com. • Website: https://healthery.com/ • Facebook: / healthery
