In your case, the fact that you can feel a lump vaginally means especially you should be examined by your own doctor (similar to when you have a cervical smear taken) and the cause of your dyspareunia found. Once this is known, treatment is usually effective but the first thing to do here is to get the answer as to what is going on. Do not be embarrassed about asking for help with this problem - it is extremely common.

dyspareunia is the clinical name for painful intercourse.
http://health.discovery.com/centers/sex/sexpedia/dyspareunia.html

Extractions: The causes of dyspareunia, as with most sexual dysfunction, can be classified as either organic (physical or medical factors such as illness, injury or drug effects) or psychosocial (including psychological, interpersonal, environmental and cultural factors). The cause of a sexual dysfunction in a given person may be a combination of several factors, and in some cases, the precise cause may not be identifiable at all. Female dyspareunia can be caused by dozens of physical conditions. Any condition that results in poor vaginal lubrication can cause discomfort during intercourse. Among the more common culprits are drugs that have a drying effect (antihistamines, certain tranquilizers, marijuana) and disorders such as diabetes, vaginal infections, and estrogen deficiencies. Other causes of female dyspareunia include: blisters, rashes and inflammation around the vaginal opening or the vulva

Extractions: September 09, 2005 Dyspareunia More Sex Return to Dyspareunia ( cont'd Developmental Problems May Contribute to Dyspareunia Many authorities believe that developmental factors such as troubled parent-child relationships, negative family attitudes toward sex, traumatic childhood or adolescent sexual experiences, and gender identity conflicts may all predispose one toward developing a sexual dysfunction. In cases of dyspareunia, if a child has been brought up to believe that sex is wrong and will cause pain, that person as an adult may well feel pain with intercourse. Similarly, a painful previous sexual experience can create an expectation of painful intercourse in future experiences. Personal factors such as anxiety, fears of pregnancy, intimacy and rejection, to name a few, may block the pathways of sexual response and lead to pain. Relationship problems or interpersonal conflicts such as power struggles, hostility toward a partner, preference for another partner, distrust, poor communication and lack of attraction to a partner can all emerge as pain during intercourse. Other feelings and psychological conflicts may also affect sexual responsiveness, inhibiting or reducing vaginal lubrication, which can result in painful intercourse. Guilt, depression and poor self-esteem are commonly encountered in association with sexual dysfunctions.

Extractions: Over US$240,000 has been donated since the drive began on 19 August. Thank you for your generosity! Dyspareunia is painful sexual intercourse , due to medical or psychological causes. The term is used almost exclusively in women, although the problem may occur in men. The causes are often reversible, even when long-standing, but self-perpetuating pain is a factor after the original cause has been removed. Dyspareunia is considered to be primarily a physical, rather than an emotional, problem until proven otherwise. In most instances of dyspareunia, there is an original physical cause. Extreme forms, in which the woman's pelvic floor musculature contracts involuntarily, is termed vaginismus edit When pain occurs, the woman may be distracted from feeling pleasure and excitement. Both vaginal lubrication and vaginal dilation decrease. When the vagina is dry and undilated, penile thrusting is painful. Even after the original source of pain (a healing episiotomy , for example) has disappeared, a woman may feel pain simply because she expects pain. In brief, dyspareunia can be classified by the time elapsed since the woman first felt it:

Extractions: Dyspareunia is a broad term referring to any recurrent genital pain with sexual intercourse. When a woman experiences pain, a cycle can develop in which the anticipation of pain causes physical tension that maintains or increases pain. Then avoidance begins the woman avoids sex to avoid the pain. Possible causes of dypsareunia include functional medical , and psychological conditions. " Functional" means that there is nothing structurally wrong with the organs. Functional causes of sexual pain and discomfort are often easily understood and treated. For example, if a woman is not sexually aroused, she may lack adequate vaginal lubrication. This can cause friction or burning that is uncomfortable. Often this pain disappears after the woman becomes aroused and lubricated. It is usually an indicator that more sex play is needed before intercourse is started. Some women may find that use of a lubricant makes genital contact more pleasurable. Others may feel fully aroused and yet have inadequate amounts of natural lubrication.

Extractions: Florida Hospital Family Practice Residency, Orlando, Florida Painful sexual intercourse, called dyspareunia in medical terminology (pronounced "dis-pair-une-ee-ah"), is a common complaint among women seeking gynecologic care. Many women report occasional pain with intercourse, but some women have pain with every episode of sexual relations. Although it may take a few visits to a gynecologist or other health care provider experienced in women's health, the cause of dyspareunia can usually be identified and treated. There are three main types of painful intercourse. Perhaps the least common is pain that occurs only after intercourse or orgasm. This can be due to uterine contractions from orgasm. Women with this problem may get relief by taking medications like ibuprofen before intercourse, which can block pain from uterine contractions. Another source of this type of pain is an allergy to semen, which is actually quite uncommon. After her partner ejaculates there can be an intense burning sensation and redness around the vagina and vulva (the outer "lips" of the vagina). There have actually been a few reported cases of women going into shock after sexual intercourse due to an allergy to semen. A third cause of pain after intercourse is a vaginal infection, such as a yeast infection, which can cause a burning sensation within the vagina due to irritation.

http://www.sexhealth.org/problems/painful.shtml

Extractions: Advertisement In Women Why do I experience pain during intercourse? Sex should never be painful. If you are having pain during sex, stop. Sex is supposed to be pleasurable, and pain indicates that something is wrong. In many cases, your partner's actions can cause pain, such as going too fast or penetrating from an awkward position. Never hesitate to ask your partner to slow down or move to make you more comfortable. Another common cause of pain during sex is the lack of natural lubrication in the vagina. Antihistamines or other medication may be the cause of this problem. Additionally, natural changes in the vagina during menopause may cause a reduction in natural lubrication. Or, in some cases, more foreplay may be required to produce a sufficient amount of vaginal lubrication. Adding a water-based lubricant to the proceedings may help alleviate this problem. We recommend Astroglide . It's a wonderful lubricant with a consistency that most couples truly enjoy. Failure of the vagina and uterus to respond to sexual arousal can also cause discomfort. The vagina may be too snug for intercourse or the uterus may not be raised so that the penis comes in contact with the cervix during penetration. Use manual penetration to explore the level of arousal before engaging in intercourse.

Extractions: PAINFUL INTERCOURSE (DYSPAREUNIA) Many women have had the experience of discomfort or pain with sexual intercourse. This can be felt as external or deep or both. The causes and solutions depend on the exact details. This type of discomfort usually feels like a burning sensation or a sensation of dryness, with too much friction. This most commonly occurs as a result of inadequate lubrication. The solution is more foreplay to increase arousal and natural lubrication and/or assisting nature by adding some lubrication. External dyspareunia can also be a sign of infection, most commonly a yeast infection. Persistence of this problem requires an evaluation by a gynecologist. When you go to the doctor, make sure you tell him or her exactly what's wrong. If you just go in for a regular check-up, you may not have the problem solved. Many women sometimes feel discomfort or pain with deep penetration. This may be a normal response to the pressure on sensitive internal parts. The obvious solution is to avoid deep penetration.
