Why do I feel bloating and pain in my lower abdomen after having sex?

Sex life is supposed to be a happy thing, but some people will experience lower abdominal distension and pain after having sex. This may be the result of excessive intensity of sexual life, prolonged sexual life, gynecological inflammation, prostaglandins, excessive stress, etc. If the pain still occurs after a period of time, you should actively check and treat it.

1. Excessive intensity of sexual life

During sexual intercourse, the male penis twitches too hard in the vagina, causing severe stimulation to the female vagina, abdominal cavity and pelvic organs. Women may experience shortness of breath and even involuntary contractions of the entire body. However, the excitement during sexual intercourse masks the pain caused by the contraction, so it will manifest itself after sexual intercourse.

2. Sexual life lasts too long

Some young men and women have strong sexual desire or have taken certain special drugs, which causes sexual intercourse to last too long or too many times at the same time, causing the female uterus to be in a state of continuous contraction. Over time, it is easy to experience lower abdominal distension and pain.

3. Gynecological inflammation

Gynecological inflammation is also a major cause of lower abdominal pain after sexual intercourse. Common gynecological inflammations include: adnexitis, pelvic inflammatory disease, endometritis, etc. The presence of these inflammations can cause women to experience lower abdominal pain after sexual intercourse due to the stimulation of the inflammation on the uterus.

4. The influence of prostaglandins

The semen ejaculated by men during sexual intercourse contains prostaglandins, which stimulate the contraction of the female uterus after entering the vagina, causing symptoms of lower abdominal pain in women.

5. Pressure effect

The bottom of the female urethra and bladder are close to the vagina, and the uterus and its appendages are even closer to the vagina, making them easily stimulated by external pressure and biological factors. For example, when the pelvic organs are inflamed or congested, the tissues will contract or spasm, causing abdominal pain.
