[|Human|] hi.. I am 28 an dhave been diagnose with Uterus cancer stage 2. Ive had 2 D&Cs in the past 3 months and have been on Megace 160 mg. Our sex life was fine until after my last d&c. Sex is more painful now. I feel like something has swollen in my lower abdomen area and that is kind of acting like a barrier and making the intercourse more painful.. Is this common??? In other words it is as painful as sex during the yeast infection..
[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for writing in. Megace is a hormone which is similar to the hormone progesterone produced by the body. It is used in the treatment of certain types of hormone dependent cancers such as breast or endometrial cancers. It works by reducing the effects of certain hormones including estrogen. Taking menace in uterus cancer will take care of hormonal functions associated with low levels of progesterone and restore the level. It will also cause lowering of estrogen levels to normal. A painful intercourse can have many causes with uterus cancer. It will help to do an ultrasound scan of your pelvis if it has not been done after D and C. This will show any particular abnormalities in the uterus that might be contributing to your pain. Please use enough amount of lubrication jelly and also have a discussion and clinical examination with your doctor. Please do not worry.
