I had an emergency c-section with my son almost a year ago. Sex has been so so painful. I get the whole swollen, burning feeling but I also feel like hes cutting me with a knife. I am really going to see a gp soon as I can't stand it anymore. My husband and I can never have that intimate fun we like to have because I can't bear the pain. I have to make him stop. I cry and cry it hurts that bad. I don't know what it is but it is getting beyond a joke for me. It is affecting our relationship. So the doctors will be seeing me very soon!

It's been 5 years for me as well and I have the same burning and pain, thus was my 2nd c-section but I didn't have pain like this after my first it went back to nearly normal.. I had said something to a Dr. but he acted like it wasn't normal to feel this way. I'm not sure what to do to get rid of the pain and burning but I have found lube, beer/wine or Weed helps but not every time.. I really want to pick a gynecologist's brain about it asap!! I'm over this and it's definitely getting on mine and my husbands nerves he just really hates that I can't enjoy myself like he is

Sorry I know you posted this over a year ago but I'm in the same boat now, my son is just over 2- he was born by emergency c section. Has the pain subsided at all for you now?

I'm so sorry you have been experiencing this discomfort! Because the muscles of the abdomen are connected to the vaginal muscles, if there are any knots or excessive scar tissue in your csection scar, this can have an impact on the muscles of your pelvic floor. Finding someone who can massage the scar and dissolve the knots could be hugely helpful. You can search for Pelvic Floor Specialists who specialize in this. And you certainly shouldn't suffer in silence. I hope this helps!

My wife and I had our fourth child by c-section 2 1/2 months ago. All four were c-sections. There was some easing back into sex before, but this time it seems impossible. She seems to be in intense pain, and even though I'm going very slowly and well lubed, I don't fit anymore. Her body doesn't seem to be able to stretch to take all of me now and she is very tight. We have not been able to have intercourse. Only oral. Is it possible that we won't ever be able to have intercourse again?

Iv had three c sections and my last was a year and half ago and during sex in certen possions it is very painful and can get very uncomftable.
I think because of the scar tissues that are up round the womb area are very tender and being pushed on?? This is why u maybe getting pain during sex get ur partner to stop while u have the pain and when gone try again I know this may not be easy hope this helpsx

I have a 1 yr old and had an emergency c section done. I've had the same things happen to me. When I talked with my doctor she sent me to therapy at ati women's physical therapy. They did internal and external therapy which has helped with the feeling of them hitting a brick wall. Bc of the pressure your child places on your pelvic floor it actually becomes tight. They help you train your body to relax. This helped me a lot but I still have trouble feeling like myself and wanting to be with my partner. Lube is our friend just so we can continue being intimate.

I too had a c section 7 months ago and thought everything would be normal, no such luck. Your body produces hormones and things change down there anyway readying you for a natural birth, also you have just been stretched and carried a baby for 9 months. I have had my other children naturally and was truly suprised it was nearly as painful as if i had given birth myself. Has anyone tried lubrication? I find that helps, also foreplay so that sex doesnt last too long even though we would like to lay together longer. If you are lucky enough your husbands will understand and small steps toward getting back to normal can start. Also think of the possibility of a yeast infection or thrush, your body has been through a lot but severe pain should be checked out & a smear taken.

I had a c section and my son is almost 3 now and it still hurts to have sex like a stabbing pain or something can’t explain exactly but it’s the worst pain ever! I asked a doctor about it and I was told that it was scar tissue from the incision that attaches to the blatter and every form of movement pulls and that is why it hurts i was told that that can surgically cut the tissue so it doesn’t pull and it will feel better I’m not sure if this will help anybody else I hope it does
