Dyspareunia is the fancy word for pain with sexual intercourse. Most often this occurs in women, although it can still happen with men. Typically this pain occurs with vaginal penetration.

After any sort of trauma to this area, the pelvic floor muscles (PFM) typically want to protect you, so they will tighten up and go into a spastic state. This can lead to consistent pain that doesn’t have much of a rhyme or reason as to when or why it is occuring.  Pelvic floor therapists can help retrain the muscles to lengthen, relax, and decrease the spasms.
