Lately every time my hubby and I have sex afterwards I have bad pains in my lower stomach and some cramping, it also burns when I pee for about a day and then it stops. I did ask the Dr. about the cramping and he said as long as it's not happening 6 or more times in an hour not to worry but the burning is new, that just stared last week. I go for my check up on Wednesday and I'm going to ask him about it but I was just curious if anybody else had this problem or something similar.
I get the burning from time to time, but it's usually just when I pee right after. My guess is that it's tiny little tears from not enough lubrication. Our hormones are fluctuating so much at this point, and that's what controls the natural fluids, so maybe trying a good lube will help with that!

you could also have a mild yeast infection....
the doc caught that i had one, and i didn't even really know it...

Be sure to pee right before and right after sex so you empty all bacteria out. It can get worked "up the tube" and cause burning. Like the PP said, use lots of lube too. All the estrogen can make ya dry. I think the cramping is normal, like your Dr. said, no more than 6 an hour, especially if you have the big O.
