I am happy to know that I am not the only one that had a similar reaction towards a tremendous amount of pain after sex on the abdominal/uterus area, during sex I felt a sharp pain as we continued and he finished I needed to use the restroom I urinated and felt dizzy, blacked out and I tried to walk to our bedroom only to fall when he picked me up on the bed all I wanted was him to do was massage my abdominal/uterus the whole front...with the focus on the right side, I was in a cold sweat and had tingling hands I also had a watery mouth and after he massaged it for a while it was starting to go away. I fell asleep and went to the clinic the following day and now I'm in the process of ruling out ovarian cyst. that may have ruputured.. hope this helps as well.

Well the other day it seems it hurt worse, and after that it's been bothering me every day, we hadn't had sex ind three days and it was still hurting.
Then I told him that it was hurting and wasn't sure if we should have sex, we did and I broke down in tears as soon as we started. The pain was from my lower abdominal, back and all along my out vagina, to my butt. There was also a weird ring of pain around his penis. We immediately stopped and I couldn't move, it was too painful.
It's been two days since then, and it still hurts.
I'm seriously scared that something happened and i'm browsed or something else. And that is just started hurting out of no where, bothers me as well.

i finally found a doctor who seemed to know what i was going through, SHE had gone through the same thing. I was told that several factors can play a role. endometriosis, cysts, adhesions and having a tilting uterus. i found out that day, after having a pap smear that i had a tilted uterus. it just happened to be tilted at the time or i may have never known. also, endometriosis runs in my family and i have been told for years that i probablly had it due to severe menstral cramping and other symptoms associated with the disease.
a couple years ago at the age of 28 i finally decided to have laparoscopy with laser to help alleviate the pain. this pain would normally occur after rough sex, or positions where penetration was deeper. before i went under the knife, the painful occurences had become more frequent, about once a month. anyone who has experienced this level of pain knows that it happening once a month is just too much. (actually it hurts so flipping bad i think once in a lifetime is too much)
when i had the endometriosis removed it was also discovered that i had adhesions and 3 cysts. the adhesions were probablly due to a tubal litigation i had when i was 24. my ovarie on one side is actually connected to my uterus by the adhesions (scar tissue). the cysts were removed, but scar tissue is generally left alone because it is likely to worsen if tampered with. after the surgery, i went about 2 years without experiencing this pain after sex, until last night.
While my husband and i begin to have sex, i sometimes feel a little bit of discomfort. just the smallest amount, but if i feel even a TINY bit of discomfort, i stop. i have finally learned that the best thing to do is stop because even though it may be VERY minor, it will intensify if you continue. If you stop soon enough, you still may experience pain following sex, but it normally will not be as intense and will not last as long. once you feel pain that is a little stronger, even if you immediately stop having intercourse, chances are it is too late.
unfortunately sometimes you dont get any warning signs. but it is very important to listen to your body. if you have any sort of signs or even a "feeling" that it might get bad, stop. sometimes we have to trust our intuition and gut feelings. Remember that God gave them to us for a reason!!
For me, last night, the pain was so bad that i actually went into shock. my husband freaked. the pain lasted a couple hours. i began to vomit and hyperventilate. i was freezing and shivering but somehow still sweaty and clammy. my jaw locked up due to clenching it for so long. my entire body was severely trembling which only made it worse because any movement adds to the pain.
I have instructed my husband to never take me to the hospital but i am definately not suggesting this for you. You should never ignore any pain. and any time you feel you need to go to the hospital, GO. remember, trust the instincts God gave you. but... for me and my stubborn butt... i dont want to go to the hospital.
i have gone several times in the past, but normally the pain subsides by the time they are actually going to see me. and from my experience, no one there has ever been able to help me in any way. they scratch their head and send me on my way. I once was given a pap smear while i was in this pain, and let me tell you..... it definately didnt help matters. it intensified and in my opinion prolonged the pain and discomfort and when he was done, he scratched his head and sent me on my way.
PLEASE remember that my experiences are mine and mine alone. dont let what i have said deter you from seeking medical attention.
so....back to my experience with this and what i have learned. i have the typical lower abdominal pain and lower back pain, i also get sudden stabbing pains in my vagina and anus as if a knife has penetrated me. this is off and on throughout the experience and only lasts a few seconds or more, for me, always less than a minute. (because of this, doctors have of course sent me for rectal exams and even a colonoscopy :$ )
what i have learned from all of my experience with this... DO NOT MOVE. put a pillow under your knees while laying on your back. keep your thighs raised on the pillow and it helps. a heating pad is a must. 2 is preferable. one should be under you positioned on your lower back and one on your lower abdomen. normally a cold wet rag across your forehead can also help but last night i was freezing so didnt want to use a rag!!!
try to remain calm and control your breathing. if you fail to control your breathing it can lead to hyperventilating. you tend to take frequent shallow breaths because deeper breaths intensify the pain but keep them calm and slow if you can. make sure you swallow frequently because breathing like that for a while dries your throat out and causes more discomfort.
dont be afraid to groan and moan... somehow holding it in (in my experiences) just seems to make it worse. its hard not to try to hide the pain because, yes, if you have a caring and decent partner it is only natural that they will feel responsible in some way. this is so unfortunate because it wasnt anything that they did. it isnt their fault, it is just problems within your body. the pain should only last an hour or two at most. but if you move, it seems as if you have to go through it all over again. stay still and gradually the pain level decreases.
endometriosis and cysts can be removed surgically. it is pricey but covered by most insurance. it is also a gamble. many people undergo this procedure and recover fully, but many have symptoms reoccur almost immediately or gradually into the future. there are procedures other than laser removal. you should discuss this with your doc.
i definately dont have all the answers. there is still so much i dont know about this. that is why i came to this site looking for answers. it just seemed like i might know a little more about it than some of you so i hoped that sharing my experiences with you might help. Good luck everyone and i am so so sorry that you are having to deal with this. i wouldnt wish this condition on my worst enemy!!

I am scared because we just told me today that the condom broke while we were having sex.
I took Plan B,
And I am really hoping the pain is from that and not a pregnancy...

This is the second time this has happened. I went to the doctor after the first time it happened and he ordered an ultrasound. Turned out that I have an ovarian cyst (not big, dermoid), which they thought was causing the pain. I was really worried about ovarian torsion, which is a risk associated with ovarian cysts.
My take on this (after doing research as well as speaking with doctors) is that more often than not, this sort of pain is caused by an ovarian cyst, it shouldn't be HPV related (I tested negative for that) and it also doesnt make sense for it to be HPV-related.
To the two younger women experiencing this sort of pain and afraid to tell their parents - as suggested, go to a planned parenthood centre by yourself or with a friend if you prefer, your parents don't need to know, but just make sure you look into it. The vast majority of ovarian cysts are not dangerous, so it's better to know, than to be worried sick.
I'm also seeing my gynecologist this afternoon (the pain is back), and will report back on what he says. I had a routine ultrasound last weekend, so this should help rule out various causes.
Good luck to all! This seems to be a fairly common condition.

I have had this same thing happen to me 4 or 5 times now. I am in so much pain after sex that i can hardly breath and i have thrown up because of it. it lasts around 10-15 min but then it does get better. it then feels like painful lower cramps for a while afterwards as well. I have had it with someone that is larger, but also with someone that is average size. it sucks :-(
