I'm experiencing some issues with lubrication during sex, and it's started just in the last 15 days. My partner and I got married 6 months ago, and everything was fine until recently. It's a bit worrying, and I'm not sure what might be causing it or how to fix it. Could there be any specific reasons for this change, or should we try something specific to help?

It's common to experience lubrication issues due to stress, hormonal changes, or other factors. I recommend trying water-based lubricants for comfort and discussing this with your doctor to rule out any underlying causes, like hormonal imbalances or dryness. Open communication with your partner can also help reduce stress during intimacy.

I've been having this sudden, really sharp pain in my vagina that only lasts a few seconds, but it's happening at least once a day now. On top of that, I'm experiencing pain on the right side of my abdomen. My periods have been all over the place too; sometimes they skip a couple of months, and other times they're on time. It's kind of worrying, and I'm curious to know what's causing this stabbing painit's so intense it leaves me speechless for a moment. Is it like muscle contractions or something?

The sharp, stabbing pain youre experiencing could be due to ovarian cysts, pelvic muscle spasms, or hormonal fluctuations, especially considering your irregular periods. It's important to consult with a gynecologist for a thorough examination and possible imaging to determine the exact cause and manage your symptoms effectively.
