Sex is more than just a fun activity; it’s a critical part of your overall physical and mental wellness, not to mention a key aspect of a strong relationship.
At Glow Anti-Aging Center and Medical Spa in Roswell, Georgia, we know that a lot is riding on your sexual health. So, if you're experiencing painful sex, know that you aren’t alone, and we can help.
Here, we look at what might be causing your pain, why sexual wellness is a critical aspect of health, and how we can help you regain comfort and confidence.
Painful sex, medically known as dyspareunia, can occur for many reasons. The good news is that most of these causes are treatable once properly diagnosed.
Common reasons include:
If you notice symptoms like burning, discomfort with penetration, or even light bleeding during or after intimacy, it’s a sign to seek help.
At Glow Anti-Aging Center and Medical Spa, we specialize in addressing these challenges holistically, treating not only the symptoms but also the underlying causes.
Sexual health goes beyond romantic moments of intimacy — it’s deeply connected to your physical and emotional health. Regular healthy sexual activity has benefits that range from alleviating stress and boosting mood to improving cardiovascular function. Another benefit? It also helps to strengthen your immune system.
However, persistent pain during sex can take a toll on confidence, create emotional distance between you and your partner, and even discourage intimacy altogether.
We know discussing painful sex can feel embarrassing, but you're in trusted hands. Dr. Hughan Frederick, OB/GYN and founder of the Glow Anti-Aging Center, has extensive expertise in treating sexual dysfunction and vaginal health as part of our comprehesnive women’s health services.
He combines clinical knowledge with innovative treatments to provide personalized care tailored to your needs. Your treatment may include:
MonaLisa Touch is an advanced, nonsurgical treatment that uses laser energy to stimulate collagen production and improve elasticity in your vaginal tissue. It also enhances natural lubrication, alleviating vaginal dryness and improving comfort.
For women experiencing hormonal imbalances, we offer hormone replacement therapy to replenish declining estrogen levels. This treatment can make a significant difference in reducing your vaginal dryness and improving tissue elasticity.
For pain caused by pelvic floor dysfunction, therapeutic techniques like Kegel exercises can strengthen and relax these muscles, reducing discomfort over time.
Because sexual health is multifaceted, we also focus on emotional and psychological factors. Stress management, open conversations with your partner, and mindfulness practices can be a major part of your treatment plan.
Everyone’s pathway to healing is different, and we make sure your treatment aligns with your unique needs and preferences.
