One of the body’s most delicate parts is the vagina. Moms worry about other things besides labor during childbirth. They also worry about vaginal tears, and women who have actually suffered vaginal tears during childbirth typically experience fear of it happening again.

A vaginal tear is defined as the tearing of the vaginal tissue, which can be small or large. If you’re able to fully understand why vaginal tear happens, you can be able to anticipate, prevent, and manage this condition effectively. However, childbirth isn’t the only cause of vaginal tears.

What Are The Causes Of Vaginal Tear?

There are common causes as to why the vagina tissues could tear. Let’s first look at the common cause before the less common causes.

Sexual activity: This is one way to cause vaginal tissue to tear. The vagina can tear during sexual activity if the intercourse is rough and violent, or if there is poor lubrication. The vagina is elastic and muscular in nature. This vaginal tissue is subsequently situated within the vaginal canal, where it serves to protect and lubricate. If the vaginal tissue becomes dry during intercourse, it loses elasticity, which increases the likelihood of tearing.

Childbirth: Childbirth is the most common cause of vaginal tears. This tear is influenced by several factors, including the baby’s position and size. The mother is more likely to have a tear when the baby is large. Also, first-time deliveries are prone to tear. This is because numerous equipment used during childbirth, such as forceps, can damage the vaginal tissue. Prolonged labor may also cause vaginal tears.

Less Common Causes

Other less common causes of vaginal tear include improper shaving during pubic hair removal, improper tampon placement in the vagina, as well as certain drugs. Shaving the sensitive regions of the vagina can cause dryness and impair skin suppleness, especially if done without a lubricant cream or gel.

This can cause dry skin to tear off. Also, tampon insertion may occasionally cause tears in the vaginal lining.

Furthermore, some medical problems, such as vaginal atrophy, connective tissue dysfunction, herpes, or other STIs, can increase the likelihood of developing a vaginal tear. Finally, certain vaginal treatments, such as pelvic radiation therapy, might weaken the vaginal tissues, potentially leading to vaginal tearing.

How Do You Handle Vaginal Tear?

First, you have to look at the tear to determine its extent. If the tear is minor, it can be mended on its own. If not, you need to see a doctor. The doctor will further evaluate the tear and then stitch it. To prevent infections from entering the body, disinfect the area where minor tears have occurred. To relieve pain, use over-the-counter pain relievers and avoid irritants such as strong soap or perfume near the tear region.

Finally, you need to stay away from engaging in future sexual intercourse until you are completely healed. Engaging in sexual activities while the tear is still healing can cause pain and discomfort, as well as increase the chance of infection.

Conclusion

A vaginal tear is defined as the tearing of the vaginal tissue, which can be small or large. If you’re able to fully understand why vaginal tear happens, you can be able to anticipate, prevent, and manage this condition effectively.

There are common causes as to why the vagina tissues could tear as a result of rough sexual intercourse, childbirth, wrong shaving technique close to the vaginal lining and wrong insertion of tampon.
