    Please go and see your GP. Painful sex and irregular bleeding always needs professional attention.

    Hi Ana. That sounds like dyspareunia, which could be a result of lubrication issues. Do you engage in intercourse without getting wet? If yes, I'd suggest you start with foreplay and allow yourself enough time to get really wet before intercourse. Just relax and try not to be too focused on the dryness; that should relax your body and get it ready for its normal natural secretions. Also try using KY gel or any safe lubricant, such as petroleum jelly. If that still doesn't resolve it, then go ahead on and check with your gynecologist.

    Irregular period is natural for some women. But if yours was regular in the past and changed to irregular, then you might want to discuss it with your doctor. Good luck!
