Hi,
Ive just read your message and can relate Sooooo much! As Ive mentioned
on here before Ive just had my 2nd lap and I hade deep endo on the
cervix and also adenomyosis of the uterus these both causing deep pain
during sex. I have had the endo lasered and a coil fitted which should
help the adenomyosis. I'm hoping this will stop the pain as it truly
does dampen the mood and make sex very awkward. I can really sympathise
with the fear as i am the same and my poor partner senses it now, not
very romantic!
Anyhow keep positive and try and get that gynae sorted so you can get to
the cause of your pain.
