Q: Vaginal Pain After Sexual Intercourse

Hi,

I was wondering if someone could answer my question. Like anyone I have had my first sexual encounter already. I had expected my first few times to be a bit painful. But I never expected it to be horribly painful I not only bled after wards, but felt pain and discomfort after having sex, and after that I had contracted a bladder infection. This was my first sexual experience with my first partner. My relationship with my first partner ended, and about a couple months later I entered a new relationship. I was hoping that this time around I wouldn't experience pain during or after sex but it seems I was mistaken. We have had protected sex once, and this time it hardly hurt at all. We stopped after a short period of time, but it was shortly thereafter I started noticing that my vagina was hurting. I experienced a horrible stinging, and burning pain when urinating. It felt like someone tore my skin down there or stretched it out like a rubber band! It is an uncomfortable and annoying pain, I have only had sex around 4 or 5 times and I seemed to be properly lubricated. Is it normal for me to still experience pain like this?

If your hymen was intact, then a certain amount of pain and bleeding is normal the first time. However, the pain should not be "horrible." It sounds like your partner failed to arouse you and failed to make sure you were thoroughly lubricated with vaginal secretions before he penetrated.

As for the continued pain months later, you may have some sort of vaginal infection or STD. Get it checked out pronto.
