Hello. I had surgery for uterine cancer in Oct last year . it was grade 2 stage 3 as it had spread to one of my ovaries. I've had chemo and radiotherapy which finished in April. i have been doing well and returned to work in August. I have had several UTI's and been given antibiotics. I have tried on a few occasions to have intercourse which has been extremely painful on the left side of my vagina. I had candidiasis when I had check up three months ago which I was treated for. i had another uTi three weeks ago and got more antibiotics. When i went for my check up last week the doctor could not examine me internally as I was too sore - in left side of my vagina again She seemed concerned about this and said she would write to my gynaecologist to have her check me - possible under anaesthetic. Since then pain in this area has gotten worse though low grade pain rather than acute. I feel pain is radiating across my pelvic floor and lower back. i am becoming very worried about this. it is Sunday night and I am not sure what course of action to take. can you advise?

Hi repeated infections are common post radiation and chemotherapy, you need a urine culture and sensitivity test and take proper antibiotics ,mean while you can take UT WELL tab which are flower extracts which reduces frequent UTIS pelvic examination is important to see the cause of pain in vagina
