| Vaginal swelling during and after pregnancy
I have been trying to read and find things on the internet about this issue. While pregnant with my SECOND child, I experienced some vaginal swelling. it was unpleasant while sitting--adding to the annoying pressure. It was moreso a pressure kind of hurt rather than pain...if that makes sense. During intercourse, it would swell....and I could feel the swelling with the touch of my hand. I saw the doctor....she said try not to sit, laying down relieves it. On the phone with the doctors they questioned vulvar varicosity...but during the doctor visit, she did not seem to think that was it. SO, now, I am NOT pregnant, my child is 11 months old...and I am still experiencing this problem. Not as severely, but after intercourse, or when I am aroused. It drives me insane, as intercourse is not as pleasureful b/c of it. It does not hurt...moreso it kind of has a swollen feeling. (and it is swollen--but not as much AS when i was pregnant...) Has anyone experienced this and do they know what it is....
PLEASE HELP!!! thanks a mill.
