Question:
I just recently started having intercourse again after a 2 year hiatus. We have intercourse regularly, but on two occassions his penis is hitting something deep inside my vagina that causes a sharp pain that continues to hurt hours later. It does not happen always I tell him to thrust slower and it doesn't happen it only happens when he's fast, meaning thrusting his penis in and out very fast. What is it? Do you think I need to go to the doctor.

Ok, so what he is hitting, from what you have described to me, is your cervix. Most women find that when an object hits it, it is very uncomfortable and causes a sharp pain. You can control this from happening engaging in several positions 1. By being on top of him, thus you can control how deep he goes in you. 2. Spooning position (meaning both of you on your sides) you can control how deep he goes in you in this position also.
Of course, telling him to go slow is also an option, but it doesn't put you in control of the situation. Most men find their partners being on top of them extremly stimulating because they can see all of their body. Most men are very visual creatures and this position increases their sexual desire so try it out!
The reason it hurts is because the once the penis hits the cervix, it can't go anywhere else. The cervix isn't moving, so repeated hits will just cause bruising. But don't worry, you can't "break" your cervix, just bruise it and if that happens, take a couple days off from sex to recover. Keep telling your partner what works and doesn't and you will have a happy healthier sex life!
Thanks for writing in!
