What Causes Pain In The Vagina After Intercourse?
I have been with my boyfriend almost 4 years. At first we used to have sex all the time (no pain). For about a year now I have been struggling with painful sex that it s got to the point that we have not had it in about 3 months. It s at the point where I am unable to even insert a tampon. I get really sore and feel as if it will tear if I even try.. What could be causing this..

Hello,
It is due to minor mucosal injury during intercourse. Nothing much to worry and it will settle by itself.
As a first-line management you can take over the counter analgesics like paracetamol for pain relief. Avoid intercourse for few days will be better.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
