[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Near 4th degree tear here with pelvic floor muscle trauma. We did not try until 7 months and it was agony. I’ve done years of pelvic PT, estrogen cream, etc. and weaned and it never got back to “normal.” I have a huge ridge of scar tissue in my vagina from where it tore and it’s just never gotten to the point where I’m pain free. Sex irritates it and then I pay the price of discomfort and soreness for days and it can be uncomfortable to sit and walk. DH was understanding for a while that I didn’t want to have sex but after multiple years and pelvic floor therapists and not much improvement he stopped caring. I basically force myself to have sex once a week or so now mostly so I don’t end up divorced, but honestly, if it were my choice I probably would be 100 percent fine with never having PIV sec again. And yes, I’ve seen specialists and done all the things. I am sad and envious of women who had easy births and could have normal sex afterwards. I am ruined for life from mine. [/quote] Very very sorry to hear this. All we can hope is there are advancements in medicine to treat this in the future.[/quote] This kind of story should be openly discussed when OBs and midwives push for vaginal delivery at all costs, just to keep their hospital's C-section rate down for good ratings or whatever. I am SO sorry you're going through that, PP. If I were you, personally, I would call every urogynecology surgeon I could find and beg them to do a consult.[/quote]
