Answer

There are several possible causes of pain during intercourse. There could be an infection in the uterus, or even possibly the cervix itself. You may possibly have a blatter or yeast infection as well. A blatter infection or yeast infection are relatively minor and can be treated with medication. There may be a more serious cause for painful intercourse. A more serious cause for the pain may be diseases of the uterus or tubes. These can be severe and need to be treated as soon as possible. If the pain during intercourse has happened more then once or twice, or if it becomes worse, I suggest going to see your ob/gyn as it could be something serious that you might need to get treated.
