Hello! I’m 20F and about 6 months ago sex became absolutely unbearably painful. Before this me and my boyfriend would have a very active sex life and suddenly we just weren’t able to anymore because I can’t bear it.
From the moment he begins to try penetrate me it feels like I’m on fire or like sandpaper. It’s not because I’m not wet and we’ve even tried using extra lube too just incase but it makes no difference. It even hurts when he puts 1 finger in.
I changed pill from combined to mini around this time so I flagged this to my doctor but they told me that changing pill wouldn’t really cause that severe of a reaction.
I’ve had tests done and had a colposcopy and absolutely nothing is abnormal. The only thing they told me was that because I’m not 25 yet my body will constantly to be changing and that I should just wait it out.
I don’t know what to do, I’ve no idea how to fix it. It’s making me really upset too because it’s been such a long time since me and my boyfriend have had sex. He’s super supportive but it’s just taking an emotional toll on me at this point.
I’ve seen lots of people on here suggest painful sex can be the result of pelvic floor problems but I have no idea whether that’s the case or how to go about getting into all that.

Does he use condoms or could it be a spermicide? I had an awful reaction with that
If you think it’s the pill I’d personally just stop it and see what happens. Couldn’t hurt, you’re not having sex anyway.
This sounds exactly like my experience and for me, it was the pill. I’ve stopped it now and will never be on birth control again
