Are sharp vaginal pains common

Answer 1

No, sharp vaginal pains are not common. Most sharp pains are most often coming from:

1. the penis repeatedly hitting the cervix, which jars the uterus (neck of the uterus is the cervix). Tell your partner not to enter as deeply.
2. Scar tissue around pelvic organs; if the cervix is hit, the force has an effect on all the organs in the pelvic region.
3. IF an ovary has a cyst or cysts, a woman can have sharp lower abdominal pain.
4. IF a woman has an untreated vaginal infection, or if it has traveled to the uterus (Pelvic Inflammatory Disease--PID), there can be intense pain as soon as a male tries to enter the vagina. The vaginal muscle can make the vaginal opening "closes off" as a physical defense. Once the infection is treated, the pain stops and the vagina does not spasm from the infection.
5. A common issue is that sex makes people breathe harder and take in air into the stomach and digestive tract. Gas pains can be sharp and intense! Try gently massaging down from your ribs to your pelvic bone. Go down the center, then, down each side of the front. The warmth and pressure of your hand will help move gas downward to be expelled. To help expel it, you can lie on your left side and draw your knees to your chest. IF the pain is from the colon, you might have a bowel movement within the coming hours. This would stop the pain.

If you are unsure that your vaginal-lower abdominal pain is a common, benign (not to worry about) issue, please see your physician.
