Why is sex painful?

You may experience pain during intercourse at different times, and we can help!

Entry pain is one way you may experience pain during sex. Maybe you get a burning/tearing feeling that dissipates after you get going or maybe it doesn't get better. Maybe it's painless at first, but starts to hurt over time.

Another way you might experience pain with intercourse is during deep penetration. This might feel like dull or sharp cramping, even a stabbing sensation.

Whenever and wherever sex hurts—we're here to help you find a solution.

Where we come in

We're on a mission to end painful sex, with two clinician-designed tools to ease pain during sex: Kiwi (for entry pain during sex) and Ohnut (for deep pain during penetration).

Whether it's a burning or tearing sensation that hurts when sex begins, to that stabbing, cramping feeling when penetration goes a little too deep, sex shouldn't hurt.

We've been there. And we can help!
