What Causes Pain During Intercourse After Cryotherapy?

Posted on Mon, 21 Apr 2014

Question: I just had cryotherapy March 6th and already pasted my following period. This week I will be post 4 weeks. I tried having sex last Friday and it was painful, I'm assuming it's still too soon? Also, I woke up with a cold and horrible body aches. Does the Cryotherapy weaken the immune system because the white blood cells are trying to help recover another part of my body? Haven't felt myself for weeks and would love to know if this is at least normal. I've been trying to do the research on post Cryo treatment, but there is absolutely nothing available online. Which surprises me when so many women go through HPV. Thank you!!!

Brief Answer: Thank you for using hcm Detailed Answer: by now it should have healed, but sometimes it may take up to six weeks. I would recommend waiting another two weeks and if if is still painful, see your doctor up make sure there isn't an infection. if you develop foul discharge, heavy bleeding, or fevers call your actor right away. I hope this answers your question, please let me know if you have any more questions.
