Suggest Treatment For Vaginal Infection And Pain During Intercourse

Question: I love my husband very much. The only issue we have, is sex. He is quite large, and we have trouble inserting every time, we almost always have to take a large pause just so we can find some lube...It just takes away the excitement.
I also experience stinging or burning during and/or after. Sometimes I even experience painful throbbing after and very slight bleeding.
I don't know what to do, I feel like I am not fulfilling his needs because I never want to have sex. It isn't enjoyable to me, sometimes I feel depressed after we finish. We are young, 25 years old and already intercourse is a rarity.
We do foreplay beforehand, we are taking all the 'correct' steps. But insertion is always takes time and is difficult, it never just 'slides' in...which triggers me to start to think. I mostly just wait for it to be over. I enjoy every minute with him otherwise, it really is just the sex. Im on the XXXXXXX pill, so I do not know if this affects anything...
Please help!

Thanks for choosing HCM
it appears you have vaginal infection or vaginismus . Get internal examination of vagina by gynaecologist to rule out infection otherwise try to insert two fingers by yourself or let him insert it for 10-15 minutes a time twice a day. This will dilate the opening of vagina. You can look to try female superior position as well as this dilates the openimg a bit. If everything fails, it could be a psychogenic problem to be solved with a sexologist.
