What Causes Extremely Painful Uterine Contractions After Sexual Activity?

Question: I have extremely painful uterine contractions following any kind of sexual activity. I was told by a doctor years ago that this is normal, but it's gotten much worse, to the point where it's blinding, dizzying pain. The same contractions follow bowel movements, and often start when I exercise as well. The pain is unmanageable once it begins. I have a very high pain threshold, but this is too much. In terms of history, I was diagnosed with cervical dysplasia many years ago, but my last pap test showed no sign of it (according to that same doctor).
Also, I should add that this has been going on for several years, and in terms of sexual activity, it happens every single time, regardless of penetration, etc.

Brief Answer:
Endometriosis needs to be ruled out
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I understand your concerns about pain after sexual intercourse.
This pain is likely to be from a condition called endometriosis of ovaries.
Endometriosis typically presents with the complaints you described. These are unlikely to be uterine contractions.
I suggest you get an ultrasound scan done to check for ovarian endometriosis. If there is one, it needs to be removed.
If you have any past reports, please upload with this query.
