I'm feeling some pain after fingering my vagina yesterday. Now it hurts when I walk or when I pee, and there's this dull pain in my lower abdomen. Could you suggest any tablets or remedies to help ease this pain?

It sounds like you might be experiencing irritation or inflammation, which can occur after vigorous activity. I recommend seeing a doctor to rule out any infection or injury, but in the meantime, taking an over-the-counter pain reliever like ibuprofen (if you're not allergic) may help reduce the discomfort. Drink plenty of water, and avoid any further irritation.

I'm really worried because my husband has mentioned that he's not as interested in our intimacy anymore. I think my vagina might have become looser over time. Can you please give me some advice or suggest ways to help me tighten it? I'm looking for something effective, as I want to improve our relationship.

To tighten your vagina, try Kegel exercises (squeeze and release pelvic muscles for 10-15 reps, 3-4 times a day), pelvic floor physical therapy, or vaginal cones; also, consider incorporating estrogen-boosting foods, like soybeans and flaxseeds, into your diet, and maintain a healthy weight; however, it's essential to remember that vaginal looseness is a common issue, especially after childbirth or aging, and open communication with your partner about your concerns and feelings can also help address the emotional aspect of this issue.
