When Sex Hurts: A Woman's Guide to Banishing Sexual Pain is a nonfiction health and self-help book by Andrew Goldstein, coauthored with Caroline Pukall and Irwin Goldstein. It addresses dyspareunia, or painful sexual intercourse, with a practical focus on causes, diagnosis, treatment options, and the emotional impact of sexual pain. The book is written for women experiencing discomfort during penetration, but it is also useful for partners and clinicians who want a clearer understanding of a problem that is often minimized, misunderstood, or left untreated. Its purpose is both educational and corrective: it challenges the idea that sex should hurt, explains why pain can become chronic, and shows how medical, physical, and psychological factors can interact. The book stands out for presenting sexual pain as a legitimate health issue rather than a personal failure, and for combining clinical information with guidance that helps readers advocate for themselves in healthcare settings.
