How to make intercourse less painful

 


Intercourse is something most people don’t expect to be painful after the first time, but for some people with Endometriosis or not but there are ways to help make sex less painful it’s just about finding what works for you. 


The first thing is don’t try and have sex if you are already in pain because it will only make it worse; try and have sex on days with little to no discomfort so that it makes it easier to cope. 


Lube is your best friend; use it a lot. Water-based is one of the best kinds. 


Take it slowly and take breaks if you need to, don’t try and rush yourself into it. 


Make sure to empty your bladder before and after sex and maybe even have a warm shower to relax your muscles before you get down to business. 


You could try painkillers before sex or an ice pack after sex to help with any pain at the site. 


If all else fails, you can buy Dilater to help slowly stretch you out to make it less painful. 


If you suffer pain in your uterus after sex, a heat pack, a warm bath, or a tens machine can really help after sex.

My 5 Endometriosis must haves

As an Endometrisoisis suffer i am no stranger to debilitating pain on a consistent basis, because of this i have found a few things that work for me and i am going to share my must-have endometriosis items.   castor oil pack-  now these are super easy to make and i actually have a tutorial on my youtube channel on how to make one  click to go to the video . i love these because they actually help reduce my bloating if i catch it in time. electric blanket-  now i don't mean the ones that you put under the sheets on your bed i mean the ones you take with you on the couch and plug into the powerpoint, they are also known as heating pads in America.    coffee-  i do know this doesn't help everyone but for me at least when i get really crampy and its that kind of pain you get with bowel endometriosis that is so painful but you can't physically go  (if you know then you know)  coffee helps me get things moving  *TMI*  and help reduce that pain. an animal- yes  i

Questions | what do you want to see from my blog?

 This months blog post is a bit different. I have landed up pregnant and because of this, I am at a standstill on what to post. So my question for this blog post is what kind of Endometriosis videos and blog posts would you guys like to see? I have been busily writing a book on Endometriosis trying to get all the information sorted for the book, answering questions etc. at the moment it doesn't feel like a good book just yet so I want to know what you guys are dying to know, and what you want to see so I can make the book, My Endometriosis series and my blog more of what you want to know and see.

Resources to learn more about Endometriosis

While my book on endometriosis is finally in the editing stages, it has a while until it will be ready to be published. Still, I got to thinking about what resources there are now about endo, not only from a medical standpoint but also from a sufferers point of view. I found books for sale as well as other blog posts, which was amazing to see how much there is out there. Still, it got me thinking, people who don't know what they are looking for might never find any of these resources, so I thought I would make a blog post detailing what each resource is about and the link to that resource as well as ways you yourself can find information.  Disclaimer: Podcasts will not be involved in this post, but I do have a post on my blog from May 2021 all about endometriosis podcasts if that's what you are looking for.  So how do you find resources? The easiest way to find resources in your area would be to search up online Endometriosis and your area. Example. Endometriosis San Diego  Th
