Question:
Hi, I am 31 years old and have had first sexual intercourse one month ago. I understand that it is always painful to lose viriginity but still it was not possible to have a full intercourse with my husband. The problem lies in the fact taht I have got a very narrow vagina and every time my partner tries to enter me it is still bleeding and very very painful. Blood is not coming from vagina itself but outside it and it is very irritating. Could you please advise us what we can do.
Many thanks in advance

Relax! Many couples experience what you are going through. There is much hope that you will be able to have intercourse once you learn to relax and to take your time. I would like to refer you to a great resource on the subject of having intercourse for the first time. You can find the link on the right hand side. The website is called www.The-Clitoris.com, and they have a specific section on “The First Time.” You will find information for women who have waited until they are in their late twenties or thirties to loose their virginity.
Congratulations on your marriage! Hopefully, you will have a long, mutual future ahead of you. Take your time to explore each other’s bodies and to become comfortable with each other. Penetration of your vagina is not everything there is. It is very important that you spend much time on foreplay (kissing, touching, caressing and stimulation of each other’s genitals, or whatever you find pleasureful) before you attempt vaginal penetration. If you do not lubricate (get wet) after prolonged foreplay you can always use some lubricant. Otherwise intercourse may not be very enjoyable and even painful.
Best wishes to you and your husband,
