Why does it hurt - and what do hormones have to do with it?
Pain during intercourse can have many causes, but hormones are a common factor that is often overlooked. Estradiol plays a central role in mucous membrane moisture and elasticity. When levels drop - which can happen with birth control use, after childbirth, or with hormonal imbalances - dryness and discomfort can occur. Understanding your hormones is an important first step.
