At least 60% of women will experience pain during intercourse at some point in their lives. With the information you gave, it is difficult to say exactly why your girlfriend is experiencing pain, but I can provide some possible reasons in my response.
You say she experiences the pain when you come deep inside her. Deep thrusting can cause jarring to the cervix (the opening to the uterus) and this may be part of the problem. If your penis is hitting the cervix when you come, the displacement of the cervix can be quite painful. Sometimes a large penis can cause this type of pain. This can also jar the ovaries or stretch the uterine ligaments, causing pain. Can you try not pushing in your girlfriend as deeply when you come? This may help, if the problem is from the penis hitting the cervix.
Other physical conditions causing pain could be some type of cervical or vaginal infection or condition. The only way to rule this out would be to have a physical examination, making sure the reason for the exam was explained to the doctor. You could try experimenting with not thrusting so deep when you come, or changing positions for ejaculation, for example, her being on top of you. This way she can control the amount of penetration. If this does not help reduce the pain, it would be wise to visit a gynecologist to see if there are physical reasons for the pain. Good luck.Reviewed by: Patricia Fawver Ph.D. in Sexology
