That shouldn't be the case at all.
I suggest you talk to your dr or get a referal to a female dr asap.

My missus had something very similar, if not exactly the same. A year and a half after having the little one she was still in pain. It turned out they had stitched her arse ways after the birth. The way they stitched her would never have healed, so they had to recut and restitch. Six months later she was grand.

I think the procedure is called a corrective episiotomy, but dont count on that as I am a bloke! If you want let me know and I'll ask the missus. The surgeon at the time told her when he was doing the procedure that 1 out of 4 women need it done after having a baby, even though loads may never get it done and just carry on and learn to ignore the pain!

So dont delay and go see you doc!

My friend had similar issues after giving birth last yr,botch job lets call it. Seriously go to gp & demand a referal..not good enough,childbirth is enough sufferage for any woman let alone a brutal stitch up procedure!

i echo what people have said here. it should not be hurting. i had stitches 8 and a half months ago (after having my second child) and i was having sex 6 weeks later with no problems...it was actually better than before lol.

please go to your GP and tell them it needs sorting, you can't crry on like that (((hugs)))

You have to go to a doctor as soon as possible. Your body is not meant to be in pain.

Can only agree with the other posters, go to a doctor and get a referral, there was a case similar to this on a C4 program I saw last year, the docs said hundreds of women never get it sorted and have miserable sex lives as a result, but its such a simple procedure to correct the problem!!!

The bottom line is this - you shouldnt be sore after sex as a result of bad stitching, and it is something that can be corrected - so dont wait any longer, go to your GP and insist that you need this fixed immediately!
