Hi

Are there any ladies reading this who are able to have sexual intercourse despite having pn? I just want some testimonies to give me hope. I haven't tried to have sex yet since developing symptoms 10 years ago. I assumed it would be an impossability. I haven,t responded to any treatment. Thanks

Hi Penny, for some reasons this important issue has not been discussed on the forum very often. For me an intercourse is the biggest problem at present as it causing me a nasty pelvic pain not immediately but hours and days after. Woulid be interesting to know other ladies' opinion

Thank you
Carla

Thank you for your help Sunil.

It would really help me a lot if someone out there could tell me if they've been able to have intercourse with pn? Can others respond?

Yes. Not impossible at all, but it did cause very significant delayed pain.

Even if I felt like having intercourse, the thought of more significant pain would get me out of the mood fast. And my hubby would feel terrible if it caused pain. I am finding that watching all the sex filled TV shows is getting harder, it makes me sad :cry: My doc just gave me a "recipe" for filling a condom with 3 parts water, to 1 part rubbing alchohol - fill it, and it makes a slushy not rigid condom one can use before sex, or after. I haven't tried it yet, but it doesn't sound like fun to me. Good for pain relief - maybe relieve some of the burning?
do not leave it in for more than a few minutes, you can burn your tissue, so be careful if you try it.

I'm sure you veterans have heard of this before?.... anyone try it?

Sorry you are having a hard time of it, Debbie. Some time back, Pianogal posted a hilarious post about the ice condom entitled something like "preparing for sex". Can't find it now, but it will either make you laugh or cry!

It is painful during and afterwards. It takes 3-4 days for the pain to lessen. Missy
