Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

Q. So far I feel my girlfriend and I have a good sexual relationship. But in the last couple of months things have changed a bit. We usually have sex about three or four times a week, and sometimes more. Recently, though, it’s been only about once a week and that’s pushing it. I think the problem is that she hurts very easily now, very soon after intercourse. It’s frustrating for her and me both. It’s as if there’s not enough room anymore, if you catch my drift. We don’t know what’s going on, and I know she’s not pregnant. Any suggestions?

A. I don’t catch your drift. You sound as if this is something that normally happens to women, and it is not. Your girlfriend needs to be checked by a gynecologist immediately.
