I am a 31 year old female, about 12 years ago i was diagnosed with a sexual disorder ( cant remember the name of it) that basically was the female equivalent of blue balls, but it would not go away through masturbation i had to actually have sex with a man something about the combination of his hormones mixing with mine. About a year ago all that stopped ( i thought for good) but this week it has kind of come back with a vengeance. is this really normal or could it be that disorder again? masturbation is only making it way worse and i am getting off pretty good but 5 mins later seems like it is worse than before. please help, if you have any suggestions. Oh and before it gets said i do have a boyfriend, he works and is gone 4 days a week then is home 4 days and while he is home we prolly have sex an average of 4-6 times.
How often does this happen? When you are initially excited outside the bedroom, it is already painful? Just to reduce pain, have you tried a vibrator down quite low and far back toward the mattress?
Can you get to an endocrine specialist to see if your hormones are imbalanced? I suppose the problem is worse at certain times of the month, as your female horomones fluxuate?
I think some symptoms do go away over the years, and come back. As you get closer to menopause, the problem could come and go, too.
My college friend had a similar problem, but the pain didn't start until sex was well under way. Her mother told her to slow processes down in the bedroom, be more gradual, and that helped.

Next like Crazy I have never heard of what your former doctor has told you. To me and by no means to I mean to insult you and this is strictly a layman's opinion, your symptoms sound more like a form of nymphomania. Which is actually Hypersexuality. I'm not sure if there is any type of pain associated with this disorder, anything is possible.
Hypersexuality
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hypersexuality is extremely frequent or suddenly increased sexual urges or sexual activity. Hypersexuality is typically associated with lowered sexual inhibitions. Although hypersexuality can be caused by some medical conditions or medications, in most cases the cause is unknown. Medical conditions such as bipolar disorders can give rise to hypersexuality,[1] and alcohol and some drugs can affect social and sexual inhibitions in some people. A number of theoretical models have been used to explain or treat hypersexuality. The most common one, especially in the popular media, is the sexual addiction approach, but sexologists have not reached any consensus. Alternative explanations for the condition include compulsive and impulsive behavioral models.
The International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) of the World Health Organization includes “Excessive Sexual Drive” (coded F52.8),[2] which is divided into satyriasis for males and nymphomania for females, and “Excessive Masturbation
Treatment
There does not yet exist any treatment approach uniformly endorsed by experts and/or community groups. Most clinical authors recommend a multifaceted or multimodal approach that includes a variety of treatments, including certain classes of anti-depressants (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or SSRIs) that reduce sex drive in some people, motivational interviewing,[26] and individual, group, or couples' therapy (including cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, and relapse-prevention).
I know this is a lot of information but I felt you might want to see it as a back up to what my layman's thoughts were. The fact is you need to see a couple of doctors. First your GYN for a complete check up pf your sexual organs. Then a psychiatrist to discus the possibility of medications to help relieve the sexual tension that may be causing your problem.

Congestion of fluid in the genitals can absolutely cause pain before, during or after sex. It can be extremely painful for women, and it’s similar to what causes ‘blue balls’.
However, you need to go back to a doctor, because "something about the combination of his hormones mixing with mine..." is absurd. Really. It is. Completely un-medical, wishy-washy nonsense. Either you misunderstood the information you received from your doctor, or your old doctor was just pulling stuff out of the air to try and explain your pain.
It’s understandable that vaginal penetration might be more satisfying and offer greater relief from the pain - but the likelihood of it having anything to do with the hormones of your sex partner is ridiculously low.
So go back to a doctor - preferable a gynaecologist - and follow up on the changes. It could be nothing but sexual function trouble, it could even be just a bad cycle, or it could be something more serious. You want to make sure you double-check the more serious possibilities. Only a doctor can do that for you. [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]
