Caesarean increases the risk of sexsmärta – Västerbotten Courier

Caesarean increases the risk of sexsmärta – Västerbotten Courier

There is a relationship between mode of delivery and the risk for women to suffer pain during intercourse. Cesarean section and ventouse doubles the risk, research suggests.

Many women experience pain during or after intercourse (dyspareunia). The reason is unclear, however.

Researchers at the Murdoch Childrens Research Institute in Victoria, Australia, now report that childbirth method may be significant. Women who underwent cesarean section or whose child forgives showered with vacuum extraction (ventouse) are at greater risk compared with women undergoing vaginal delivery.

In the current study, in which 1244 women were included, also appeared a connection between persistent dyspareunia 1.5 years after the birth and maltreatment or abuse from her partner.

The study is published in the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists journal BJOG.
