So you wanna talk about s*x?
We all know giving birth can be a real pain in the cooch (literally).
But what isn't often talked about is the pain after the fact. Not everyone is comfortable talking about intimacy issues, and some women may feel like they're "damaged goods" if after some time, things still aren't feeling right. (Hint: You're not damaged or broken!)
Painful in*******se is extremely common and some women still experience it 18 months postpartum!
Having pain and not sure what to do about it? Reach out to your Gynecologist OR Pelvic Floor Physical Therapist! If you don't have one of these guys on your care team, reach out and I can help out you in contact with some of the best!
(PS, A C-section does not mean you can't be affected by Dyspareunia!)
