Hello and thanks for your query.

I understand that you are quite distressed by the painful sexual experience after being newly married. Some of the likely causes for painful sexual intercourse are:

1) Vaginismus - this is a spasm or tight ness of the vagina which makes penetration difficult and often painful

2) Inadequate lubrication during intercourse

3) Poor awareness about sexual intercourse and improper technique of insertion.


I would like to give you the following suggestions to overcome your problem:

1) Try to engage in plenty of foreplay. This will lubricate both your sex organs well as well as cause the vagina to expand and make it easy for penetration.

2) You can also use a lubricant such as KY jelly for easier penetration.

3) Try a different sexual position. Usually, the woman on top position is better for penetration problems. This way, you can easily guide the penis into the vagina.

Wish you all the best.

Regards,
