Why is sex painful after a hysterectomy?
Experiencing discomfort during intercourse after a hysterectomy is common. Whether the pain led to the hysterectomy or the pain came after (or some combination of the two!), there’s no need to suffer.
There are different kinds of painful sex you may have after your hysterectomy. Broadly categorized as “deep” pain and “superficial” pain, each has its distinct causes and solutions.
You can learn even more about pain during intercourse post-hysterectomy in this blog post.
Are you having deep pain during sex after your hysterectomy?
Deep pain during sex after a hysterectomy may be caused by having sex before you're fully healed, post-surgery scar tissue, shortening of the vaginal canal, or conditions like pelvic floor dysfunction that could have existed prior to surgery.
We're on a mission to end painful sex for people post hysterectomy, with a clinician-designed tool to ease deep penetrative pain during sex. Ohnut is a first-of-its-kind product designed for you.
Ohnut for sex after your hysterectomy
We created a first-of-its-kind tool to help people have comfortable penetration. Ohnut was specifically designed to help people control depth during partnered sex. If you're experiencing deep pain or are worried about going too deep, this can be a great option for you!
How Ohnut works for painful penetrative sex
You control how much goes in! Soft, stretchy, and oh-so-comfy, Ohnut is a simple and convenient way to adjust when penetration feels too deep. With 4 stretchy, stackable rings that go around the base of the penetrating partner—you can customize how deep you want to go—without sacrificing sensation.

What customers say about Ohnut:
This. Changes. Everything. Order it.
"Having a hysterectomy left me feeling nervous about intercourse. We started slowly, but it was still very painful. After a few weeks of nervously having subpar sex, we decided 'just the tip' wasn’t a long term solution. I found the Ohnut, and ordered it immediately. We can both completely relax and enjoy sex again. Having such a major surgery and worrying about how your sex life will be changed forever is heavy on a person and on a relationship. No pain!"
—Ohnut customer
"My wife had a hysterectomy & we needed a game changer. And boy, oh boy did we find one in this product!"
