This is the term for pain felt deeper in the pelvis during or after intercourse. It can also spread to involve the fronts of the thighs. It may be sharp or dull, may stop when penetration stops or can continue for minutes or even hours. The causes of this type of pain usually lie rather deeper in the pelvis.
The oldest of those supercontinents is called Rodinia and was formed during Precambrian time some one billion years ago. Another Pangea-like supercontinent, Pannotia, was assembled 600 million years ago, at the end of the Precambrian. Present-day plate motions are bringing the continents together once again.
About 1.2 billion years ago, fragments of continental crust, pushed together by plate tectonic motion, began to assemble a giant continent. Geologists affectionately use the term âRodinia,â a Russian word meaning âhomeland,â for this giant continent of so long ago.
