Question 10

the entrance of my vagina always hurts before my period. is this a normal thing? is this my body's way of opening up for my period?

Accepted Answer

No: The entrance may hurt because your estrogen levels drop before your period and estrogen is the female hormone that keeps our vaginas moist, lubricated and healthy.  Some women, as well, are more prone to yeast infections around this time as well.  See your doctor if the pain is recurrent or bothers you significantly.
