Alternatives: There are other alternatives besides surgery to help with painful intercourse. It depends on what's causing it. There are 2 new technologies that help restore the collage and blood flow in the vaginal tissue called MonaLisa Touch and THERMIva. They may be non-invasive alternatives that you can try. Hormones can also be helpful if the pain is due to dryness from lack of hormones.
