Frequently asked
questions
Sex is painful – is it making the
endometriosis worse?
Pain during or after intercourse is one of the symptoms
of endometriosis. Having sex shouldn’t make the
condition worse – but it could temporarily increase your
pain. By
talking with your doctor, you can both agree to explore courses
of treatment which may help to alleviate this symptom. Being
open and honest with your partner and communicating how you
both feel, both physically and emotionally should help you
both to understand what is happening. Please visit

issues regarding painful intercourse.
