I too experienced these symptoms of excruciating lower abdominal and rectal pain. It's all kinds of wrong. more sinister reasons such as endometriosis and burst cysts should be investigated further. But for me it was definitely the gas/light constipation theory. I writhed in agony, doubled over and squirmed in pain. Eventually after reading the previous posts i treated the pain as a gaseous affliction With immediate success. To alleviate your pain, try to lie down on the bed and commence rubbing your belly and lower abdominal area in a clockwise motion. Be gentle to yourself. I also found a pressure point along the inner of my hip bone near the pelvis that was tender. I applied a constant pressure on the point and as it eased so did all my discomfort. Good luck girls!!
ps. If this doesn't provide any relief to your pain it has not been induced by gas and a more serious underlying problem could be present and should be investigated further.
i have had this happen alot to me since I was a teenager (even when I wasnt having sex) i went to the hospital several time with no help .... i found as the years pass it does get worse when it happens ... suprise!!! doctors still have no idea what it is (I have pain in my lower stomach right above my vagina (bone) and it feel like it runs straight through to my anus) i have nothing wrong with me wat so ever and iver been getting these pains a few times a years since before i had sex .... no idea what they are and niether do doctors ..... best suggestion i can give going thru this as many times as i have is run a hot bath and take a few IB prophen before u get in the bath then sleep on ur side .... the pains go away within 1 to 4 days and DONT have sex for at least a week or they come back. not much else ive figured out other than tht. just stock up on ib profen and accept them cuz they happen even into ur 30s
I'm in so much pain! About an hour ago I had intercourse with my husband for the second time today. Five minutes go by and I'm in the shower getting cleaned up. Right as I started to go pee my lower abdomen / pelvic area started to cramp up something awful. I know something is very wrong. This has never happened to me before. My walk from the bathroom to the living room was painful , horrible, down right unbearable. My husband has me drinking a ton of water right now . Also he has also given me a small dose of Ibuprophen for the pain and he said my stomach looked bigger, like I was bloated. Oh dang, my rectum is hurting as I type. The pains are coming and going. Man... I'm upset.... sad faced girly. Sex with my best mate of 13 years is where I find my happy place. I've always been VERY sexual. Heck I'm a thirty year old wife and mother of two, I look forward , NEED to finish out our long days and even shorter nights ( babies still don't sleep a full eight hours. They need mommy to help them go potty , change their pull ups . Then they want something to drink. An hour or two goes by and i'm needed to chase away the scary dreams by reading the same book EVERY night till both of them fall asleep. Then my husbands alarm goes off for work and I'm up taking care of him now. ( Sorry , I've gotten off the topic of my medical problems . Just venting , how rude of me. )Just trying to convey the message of how MUCH I look forward to daddy putting mommy to sleep.I'll be reading everything I can find on this topic. This Mommy is worried .I'm reading some scary blogs about ladies with similar symptoms , most of them don't sound so good . Some ladies talking about just learning to deal with the pain. I don't want to cope or deal .I want to cure and Make Go Away AH UGH it's hurting in the different areas of my body(first it was my lower abdomen then it was my pelvic area now it's my rectum . This sucks . Should I see a doc.? It's never happened before , what I mean is, should I wait till it has happened at least twice before I go see the Doc. . Does anyone know how this was caused? Could I have been taking some kind of preventative measures/ steps to prevent this from happening in the first place.? Was there something I should have been avoiding? Ladies I'm interested in knowing how others are doing? I want to taken in as much advice as I can before I go see some Doc. who I can't even pay for when the bill comes.
I have this exact thing going on now!!!! OMG! Everything you have said about the doctors and antibiotics, EVERYTHING is identical to my problem. I have had this since May. Were you ever on the Mirena Contraceptive? I was. OMG
Thanks for sharing your stories, I wish none of us had to experience this but it's also good to know that it's common and we are not alone.
I was having sex today with a regular buddy who is quite well endowed and I felt him go a bit too deep inside of me. This happens with me on occassion (as I'm quite petite) but this time when we continued having sex it was a bit uncomfortable. He finished soon after and when we stopped I immediately felt a dull aching pain in my abdominal area. While waiting for him to come back from the bathroom, the pain got worse and I also felt it in my rectal area. We usually go for a second round so we tried but I felt a stabbing pain as soon as it went in. I tried to go really slowly, telling him not to move and just controlling the depth and speed myself, but it was not at all pleasurable and if I moved any faster than ridiculously slowly, the stabbing pain would come back. So we stopped, but the pain continued. I did not have the urge to throw up or poop (like some of the other stories here) but I was feeling a little gassy. I could still walk ok slowly, and peeing was fine. I did feel like I just needed to lie down and not move much though.
I don't think I've ever had this problem before. I don't know whether it had anything to do with the deep penetration or not. It seems from researching the internet that it is most likely one of these things:- Gas/constipation- Thrusting too deep or rough and hitting the cervix/shifting the uterus- Ruptured ovarian cyst (I have had a problem with this before, so maybe?)- Endometriosis- Pelvic Inflammatory DiseaseIt has been about 5 hours since the pain started and I am still feeling it in my abdomen and rectum, but it is much better than when it started. I am a bit gassy, and it seems to relieve the pain if I manage to pass some gas. I am afraid to have sex again because of the pain. I think that if we kept having sex after the pain started, then it would really have been unbearable. I am thinking to stop having sex for at least a week to give my body some time to "repair" itself (abstaining sucks though, don't it?!).I had already booked a doctors appointment for an STD test for tomorrow morning so I will also be telling him about this problem and asking him if he knows what's wrong with me. I fear he might just "fob me off" like other women have mentioned, or say he doesn't know and send me on my way, or misdiagnose without properly examining/understanding. I'll come back and report the outcome after the appointment.
We deserve to enjoy sex and it seems crazy to me that I have come across so many women expressing this problem on the internet and so many theories but none that point to a common diagnosis/solution. I wonder why this issue has not been studied further by doctors, as so many women have mentioned, their doctors seem to have no idea what it is and don't seem to even care.. how terribly frustrating and hopeless - I bet if this were happening to as many men, there would be teams of doctors frantcially trying to diagnose it!!
it is not normal
