Painful intercourse, or dyspareunia, is a condition that affects many women and can have various causes. Some possible causes of painful intercourse related to allopathic medicine are:
1. Antidepressants, such as fluoxetine (Prozac) and other selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), are often prescribed for depression, anxiety, and other mental health conditions. These medicines can affect the sexual function of women by reducing libido, causing vaginal dryness, and delaying or preventing orgasm.
2. Hormonal contraceptives, such as birth control pills, patches, injections, and implants, can alter the levels of estrogen and progesterone in the body. These hormones are important for maintaining the health and elasticity of the vaginal tissues. Low levels of these hormones can cause vaginal atrophy, which is thinning and inflammation of the vaginal walls. This can lead to pain, bleeding, and infection during intercourse.
3. Chemotherapy and radiation therapy for cancer can damage the cells of the vagina and vulva, causing inflammation, scarring, and narrowing of the vaginal canal. This can make intercourse painful and difficult. Some chemotherapy drugs can also cause early menopause, which can result in vaginal dryness and atrophy.
4. Allergy medications, such as antihistamines and decongestants, can have a drying effect on the mucous membranes of the nose, mouth, and genitals. This can reduce the sensitivity and lubrication of the vagina and make it more prone to irritation and infection during intercourse.
