What Causes Pain In Cervix During Intercourse?
I just got off depo and I started my period at the end of my last 3 months like normal. My bf and I had sex during my period and it stopped the moment his sperm went in me. But now every time I have sex with him I feel like my cervix is being pushed into my stomach. It's painful to the touch. But just my cervix not any other part. Is this a sign of pregnancy or just a depo symptom?

Hello and welcome to HCM,
Pain in the cervix while having intercourse is suggestive of cervical inflammation or cervical erosion/ ectropion.
Depo shot is unlikely to cause pain in the cervix during intercourse however, depo preparation can cause erosion/ ectropion of the cervix.
I suggest you to consult your gynecologist for clinical assessment and examination of the genital tract especially cervix.
In case there is ectropion or erosion it can be treated by cauterization.
Thanks and take care
