Thread: Bad cramps after sex

My life partner is 30 and is on an anti-anxiety drug which makes him go forever as far as intercourse goes. I'm not sure if this is part of the problem but, the longer we've been together, the worst the cramps have been getting. It actually hurts on one side sometimes like he's hitting something. so, my question is, has anyone else dealt with this. I mean, is it my age, is it the "banging" for long periods of time, or what? At first it seemed like it was only bad during the time right before my period, but now it seems like all the time? Please let me know if anyone else has had this experience, I would so appreciate it!!!!!

I am 31. My DH and I do not have any children. I also experience pain during intercourse. I recently found out (after a miscarriage) that I have a fibroid on the outside of my uterus. I am not sure if the duration has anything to do with it necessarily. You could always ask your GYN. : )

i am a 23 year old female and every now and then i get really bad cramps in my lower abdomin after sex. my boyfriend and I have sex regularly and it only happens every now and then. they feel like im about to start my period and they only last 20 mins or so. they hurt so much that they cause me to be hunched over and ive tried to lay down, stand up, and go into fetal position to ease the pain but ti doesnt work. i dont know if it is a serious issue or not. need advice.

i have such bad cramps that it feels like labor pains. the only way to get rid of them is heat/ a hot bath. its so bad i am yelping in pain. i had endometrosis and that was from an infection due to an IUD and i have had chronic PID. does anyone have it this bad? if heat didn't help it i would end up in merge or killing myself. its labor all over with no meds.

I have had this problem since October of 2011 until now. They have switched my birth control, they have run many many tests, I have about $2,000 in medical bills sitting on my kitchen table right now and no answers. I was driving home from a friends house and I had to pull over just to cry because I couldn't stand the pain an longer! It is ruining my life. It makes me not want to have sex. Every time I do, I wake up and for 2-4 days I am cramping severely and I am bleeding like I am on my period and sometimes worse. I really wish I could find an answer to this problem before it gets an worse!
