After working for a GYN doc, he prescribed Macrobid, capsules (nitrofurantoin) 100mg 1 after any intimate encounter that involves stimulation around your urethra area. And immediately void after your time together is up. take 1 next day as well. Prevents nasty UTI/ bladder infections. This works for me very well, without then the next day I am in massive pain when urinating.
He also used to say to soften tissues around the opening use olive oil, (PLAIN no extra spices!!), massage into the tissues and slowly stretch the tissues.
I was 35 and had a hysterectomy, 37 dx with stage 4 breast cancer, and I so need so rehanging of the bladder and support of the rest of the plumbing. This is low on the priority list, but it does cause me distress not being more intimate more often with my husband.
