A hard question to ask, but does anyone else experience painful intimacy from excess skin?

I'm starting to wonder if I'm the only person in the world to experience this.  I have lost 130# and have excess skin like everyone else.  The more weight I lost the more painful intercourse became because of the excess skin in that area.  Has anyone else experienced this problem?  Has anyone had any plastics done that could help this? 
Thanks.....Nicole

 I haven't heard that weight loss could make intercourse painful, but do know there is a procedure called a mons lift, to address too much skin left there from weight loss. It's often done as part of a lower body lift, or tummy tuck, but could be done alone. Go over to the plastics board and do a search for mons lift.

for me, intercourse IS more painful. Not perse because of the excess skin, but because my 'padding' is gone and intercourse is deeper now LOL

I do however have some excess skin pain down there while bike riding (ouch!)

I hope to get a LBL some day which might alleviate some of the flaps down there ;-)
