writes:For the last six weeks, my girlfriend has been experiencing pain around the entrance of her vagina when we make love. Because of something that happened around a year ago (she was treated for a cervical erosion) she thought it must have been the same problem all over again. She was referred to one of the top Gynecologists in the country, and was examined by him. Yet, he had told her that there seems to be no physical problem, and that everything looks very healthy. He also mentioned to her that it is very unlikely that the cervical erosion would be causing the pain (the pain is specifically at the front of her vagina). He recommended a specific type of lubricant, even though she never has any problems in that area (quite the contrary - she's always very wet and easy to enter when we make love). Now she is left thinking that it is all in her head, even though she is not that sort of person. She says she is experiencing this pain, and is worried about it, and I believe her. Before anyone suggests it, whilst it is true that this has adversely affected our sex life in the last six weeks, she is normally very sexual, and indeed still really wants to make love with me. She just finds it very sore at the entrance. What am I supposed to do? Does anyone have any ideas as to what could be causing this problem? Also, how do you think I should be approaching this with her, given that one of the top experts around has given her the physical all-clear?

 She should get a second opinion. Doctors are not all knowing gods unfortunately. If i were her i'd be worried too. Sounds like you're being really good with her just be understanding and patient
