Dr. Georgia Latham answered

Specializes in Family Medicine

Many reasons: possible for pain and discomfort after sex. The most common reason is probably lack of adequate preparation prior to sex. Taking time for loving and sexually stimulating foreplay is very important to avoid discomfort and increase pleasure for both partners.
