Infection: If the pain you experience is in the external genital area and the vagina, the cause may be an infection in the area.The baby’s weight can press down on the pelvic floor, causing a dull pain in the vagina. This can cause an overstretching of the ligaments and muscles surrounding the vagina, resulting in a sharp, shooting sensation of pain.
Growth of the foetus: As the size of the foetus in the uterus increases, the ligaments in the pelvic area also stretch to accommodate this growth. This dryness can cause vaginal pain, especially during sexual intercourse. Hormonal changes: Pregnancy is a time of many hormonal changes, and this can cause an uncharacteristic dryness in the vagina.
