Every time me and hubby go to have sex I cringe, because SEX HURTS!!!
It burns... it stings... it feels like pins and needles... it is a lot of different (uncomfortable) sensations. And there are places that when he touches... OWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!! It feels like I am being poked with a hot knife or something.

And sometimes, we try a position, and he can't get in... and OMG does it hurt when he tries to!!!!!
So then, we have to rearrange and try another position and he is able to get in.

What the hell??? Confused

Sex is supposed to be enjoyable!!!!

Have you spoken to your gyno about this? Has it always hurt?
Do you use lube?

You definitely should see someone about this. Some discomfort at first is normal for some people, but only from the initial stretching. It shouldn't burn or feel like pins and needles. Burning or stinging is usually a sign that there is something wrong. If changing positions doesn't help, or using more lube, etc., then you should see a doctor.

Agreed. You need to speak with a doctor, it shouldn't hurt like that. You're right, sex is supposed to be enjoyable!

Let us know what the doctor says.
