Dyspareunia - what does this mean

Dyspareunia is a condition in which a person experiences pain during or after sexual intercourse. it can be caused by physical factors, such as infection, inflammation, or injury, or psychological factors, such as stress, anxiety, or depression. it can also be caused by hormonal imbalances, medications, or medical conditions such as endometriosis or pelvic inflammatory disease.

What happens during the disease - dyspareunia

К болевым ощущениям приводят различные расстройства. Каждое из них имеет свой механизм формирования и определяет патогенез диспареунии:

  • При нехватке смазки, атрофических или воспалительных заболеваниях влагалища боль возникает из-за раздражения и травматизации слизистой оболочки.
  • При вагинизме, пороках развития, стенозе влагалища дискомфорт вызывают анатомические особенности, которые препятствуют половому акту.
  • При эндометриозе неприятные ощущения связаны с расположением эндометриоидных очагов. Давление и их физическое растяжение при половом акте вызывают боль.
  • При загибе и опущении матки, низко расположенных миоматозных узлах происходит смещение органов, что ведёт к дискомфорту при половой жизни.
  • При воспалительных заболеваниях матки, придатков и мочевого пузыря боль может присутствовать и вне полового акта, а во время него — усиливаться из-за давления на воспалённые ткани.
  • При психосоматической диспареунии стресс и сопутствующие негативные эмоции вызывают спазмы мышц тазового дна. Это сопровождается болью и нарушением микроциркуляции крови в тканях при половом акте. Поначалу такое нарушение временно и обратимо, но в дальнейшем становится постоянным и приводит к структурным изменениям. Таким образом психогенетические и органические расстройства влияют друг на друга.
  • При психогенной диспареунии к боли приводит неразрешённый внутренний конфликт. Дискомфорт возникает из-за невозможности изменить сложившуюся ситуацию и от неудовлетворённости отношениями. Женщина ищет возможность избежать половую близость, а боль служит наиболее психологически и социально приемлемым способом для этого.
