What Causes Stomach Bloating Before And After An Intercourse?
Hi. My girlfriend seems to experience a bloated feeling in her stomach during and after intercourse. Additionally she sometimes feels a burning sensation inside. We've both been tested negative for STDs. She does develop UTIs pretty fast.. Any idea what the problem might be?

Hi
In woman with a retroverted uterus (tilted backwards), sex can cause your uterus to move and make contact with other organs surrounding it. As a result, you may experience pain and bloating.
Bloating could occur in many women before or after menstruation. Gastritis or indigestion can also be the cause.
Rarely, semen can cause stomach pain and cramping after due to prostaglandin found in semen, which can cause uterine contraction.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
