A member asked:

Can pcos cause deep penetration to be painful ?

Dr. Bryan Treacy answered

Specializes in Gynecology

Usually not: PCOS itself usually does not present with painful intercourse. Deep penetration pain can occur when the penis impacts the cervix during intercourse and is usually position related. Painful intercourse can also occur in women with symptomatic endometriosis or with enlarged ovarian cysts.
