Postcoital Vaginal Laceration in a Nursing Mother: A Rarely Reported Entity

Postcoital vaginal injury is an uncommon entity in parous women, although it is a commonly encountered problem in virgins. Herein, we present a case of postcoital vaginal injury after consensual intercourse in a seven-month postpartum lactating woman, leading to a 5 cm laceration between the left lateral vaginal wall and posterior vaginal fornix. There was no evidence of colporrhexis. Ultrasonography was done to rule out any intraperitoneal collection or any broad ligament hematoma. The vaginal laceration was repaired in double layers. Postoperatively, the patient had an uneventful recovery. It should be emphasized that, even though uncommon, postcoital vaginal injuries can also occur in parous women.
