Dyspareunia/Painful Intercourse
Dyspareunia, or painful intercourse, is a condition that has many different causes. It may occur with initial penetration, deep penetration, or both. Many non-gynecologic conditions can cause painful intercourse, including interstitial cystitis, pelvic floor spasms, and diverticulitis. Treatments revolve around finding the specific cause of the pain, and include modalities such as counseling, physical therapy, medication, or (rarely) surgery.

“It’s very refreshing to find someone who will truly listen to your concerns and provide information and validation about your concerns. I did not feel that my concerns were dismissed either, rather thoughtfully considered and explained in a way I have never had a medical professional provide. To say I’m thankful for finding Dr. Babb would be an understatement!”
