Profound discomfort during sex!

I was having profound discomfort during sex so I asked my ob/gyn about the pain I was experiencing. Her initial response was somewhat simple – “Increase your lubricant usage.”

Following her advice, I incorporated large amounts of lubrication. However, the pain did not decrease. The pain persisted, often escalating to the point of tearing and bleeding. I found myself grappling with self-doubt and questioning if I had done something wrong.

In pursuit of a solution, I embarked on a journey of self-education and conducted research. I was able to approach my ob/gyn and request a prescription for vaginal/localized estradiol. This was never suggested before as an option for me. It was however the cure to my problem. I just wish I didn’t have to struggle so long.
