I don't think that it is a serious problem, I just wanted to know if anyone had experienced this or had any advice! Thanks in advance! Reply to this Question Share |

reader, anonymous, writes (28 July 2006): This is definately a normal reaction to your first few times having sex. Even if you have had sex before, if you haven't for a while, if it lasted a longer time, or if it was a little rougher than normal, feeling that painful throbbing is pretty common. It will go away in time. It's basically like a bruise. You just have to make sure you sit comfortably and stay comfortable "down there" and don't have sex again while it's still hurting a lot, or you'll make it worse. After a while, you'll become more used to sex and it won't hurt anymore, but it's likely that it'll take a few times first. Each time will be more comfortable than the last. So, don't worry, I've gone through this before, as I'm sure many women have as well. It goes away, and, for the most part, it's worth it. I hope this helps you feel better (mentally, not "down there" lol). I wish I knew how you could alleviate the pain, but I'm afraid time is the only healer you have. That, and keep yourself comfortable. No wearing pants that are tight against your parts, that'll just increase that throbbing feeling. I find sitting "like a guy" helps decrease the pressure and the pain. Hope it all goes away soon! Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Stay comfy!
