Difficulty In Having Intercourse Due To Severe Pain. History Of Complete Hysterectomy For Endometriosis. Possible Recurrance?
I had a complete hysterectomy when I was 24 (now 43) for endometriosis. I have dealt with pain during intercourse since I was 17. my og/gyn has given me several medications and creams but nothing has worked. I can't have intercouse because of the severe pain. i am going to make an appointment with my ob/gyn this week and beg her to do some testing through my belly button or through my vagina. I am afraid the endometreosis has came back. Not sure what to do and why this is happening.

Hi dear,
sad to hear about the hysterectomy you underwent at such a young age.
I feel the endometriosis must have been in really advanced stage which forced the doctor to perform hysterectomy.However, usually it is not possible to remove the ole desease specially if endometriotic spots are on vital organs like bladder and bowel and this happens more in advanced cases. these spots later on grow further
From your hysterectomy of painful intercorse, i really feel that the endometriosis
has further increased which is creating problem. But dont worry. Good number of injectables are available wic can control it anddecrease the symptoms. You definately need a diagnostic laparoscopy. COnsult your gynae and get te needful done
All the best
