Your intimate health deserves to be discussed openly
Female Sexual Concerns
Pain, discomfort, dryness, low desire or changes in sexual wellbeing can affect your confidence, relationships and quality of life. Dr. Rutuja M. Narvekar provides confidential, compassionate and evidence-based care for female sexual health concerns.
Female sexual health can change throughout life. Hormonal changes, childbirth, breastfeeding, menopause, infections, pelvic conditions, medications, stress and emotional wellbeing can all influence sexual comfort and desire.
Yet many women hesitate to discuss these concerns; even with their gynaecologist.
Did you know?
Pain during sex is common, but it should not simply be accepted as “normal.”
Occasional discomfort can happen for many reasons, but persistent or recurring pain may be associated with vaginal dryness, infections, pelvic floor problems, endometriosis, hormonal changes, childbirth-related changes or other gynaecological conditions.

Concerns We AddressEvery concern deserves an individual explanation
Pain During Sex
What it is
Pain during sexual intercourse is known medically as dyspareunia. It can occur at the vaginal opening, deeper within the pelvis or both.
When is it required
Consider an evaluation if sex is repeatedly painful, if pain started after childbirth or menopause, or if discomfort is affecting your relationship or willingness to have sex.
What to expect
Dr. Rutuja discusses when the pain occurs, its location and any associated symptoms. Depending on the cause, evaluation may include an examination, infection testing or assessment for hormonal, pelvic or gynaecological conditions.
Vaginal dryness occurs when there is insufficient natural lubrication, which may result in irritation, burning or discomfort during sexual activity.
When is it required
It may occur during breastfeeding, after childbirth, around menopause or due to certain medications and medical conditions.
What to expect
Dr. Rutuja identifies possible contributing factors and discusses appropriate treatment or supportive options according to your age, symptoms, hormonal status and medical history.
Sexual desire naturally varies between individuals and can change throughout life. A persistent reduction in desire that causes personal distress may require evaluation.
When is it required
Consider discussing it with Dr. Rutuja if you have experienced a persistent change in sexual desire that concerns you or affects your quality of life.
What to expect
Dr. Rutuja considers physical, hormonal, emotional, relationship and medication-related factors rather than assuming there is a single cause.
Pregnancy and childbirth can affect the pelvic floor, vaginal tissues, hormones, body confidence and sexual comfort.
When is it required
Consider seeking help if you experience pain, dryness, reduced desire, fear of intercourse or discomfort after childbirth that does not improve with time.
What to expect
Dr. Rutuja evaluates your recovery and discusses factors such as breastfeeding-related hormonal changes, scar tissue, pelvic floor concerns and vaginal discomfort.
The pelvic floor is a group of muscles that supports the pelvic organs and contributes to bladder control and sexual function.
Pregnancy, childbirth, ageing and certain pelvic conditions can affect these muscles.
Pelvic floor concerns may include:
Urinary leakage
Pelvic heaviness
Pain during intercourse
Difficulty relaxing pelvic floor muscles
Changes after childbirth

I visited her a month or two ago after searching for a good doctor near me, and I’m so glad I found her. She is extremely sweet, humble, and approachable.
What I really appreciated was the way she explained everything in detail—from the diagnosis and treatment to the possible reasons behind the condition. She takes the time to answer all your questions and makes you feel reassured and confident that everything will be fine.
She is not only an excellent doctor but also a genuinely kind and caring person. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a good doctor who listens, explains, and makes you feel comfortable.
Thank you so much, doctor, for your kindness and reassurance! ❤️

We visited Dr. Rutuja’s Clinic, when we were quite anxious because of some complications. From our very first consultation, she made us feel comfortable and gave us a lot of confidence.
What I really appreciated was how approachable and responsive she was. She was available whenever we needed guidance, even at late at nights.....
We didnt felt like just another patient it was personal. She genuinely listens, explains things patiently and, most importantly, understands the emotional side of what you are going through. Your reassurance and emotional support meant a lot to us.
She is also very knowledgeable and we always felt that we were in safe hands.
We genuinely thank you Doctor for being there for us during an important and slightly difficult phase. Would definitely recommend Dr. Rutuja to anyone looking for a good gynaecologist.

Some women may experience occasional discomfort, but persistent or recurring pain during sex should not simply be accepted as normal. Pain can have many possible causes, including vaginal dryness, infections, pelvic floor dysfunction, endometriosis, hormonal changes, childbirth-related changes or other gynaecological conditions.
Why does sex hurt after childbirth?
Several factors can contribute to discomfort after childbirth. Vaginal tissues may take time to heal, while tears or episiotomy scars can sometimes remain sensitive. Breastfeeding can also reduce oestrogen levels and contribute to vaginal dryness. Pelvic floor muscles may become tense or weakened following pregnancy and delivery. If pain continues or is affecting your relationship or wellbeing, it is worth discussing with Dr. Rutuja rather than simply waiting indefinitely.
Is vaginal dryness only a menopause problem?
No. Although vaginal dryness is common around menopause, it can occur at other stages of life as well. Breastfeeding, hormonal contraception, certain medications, stress and some medical conditions can contribute to reduced lubrication. The cause matters because treatment should be tailored accordingly.
