The young man says he is afraid that the next sexual intercourse will also be painful




Doctor, I’m 23 years old and I had sex for the first time last week. It took him a while to achieve penetration and it ended up hurting. Two days later, we tried it, it hurt and burned again. I’m afraid of a third attempt, what do I do?

Probably, since these are your first experiences, you are not relaxed enough. Maybe you are still insecure and this ends up interfering with your sexual performance. What happens? You end up not having adequate lubrication, nor adequate dilation of the vagina, and penetration becomes more difficult.

If you are also starting your sexual life, inexperience or anxiety can often also contribute to this greater difficulty.

What can you do? Pay attention to foreplay, don’t rush, enjoy the moment with your partner and only then think about possible penetration.

If the situation doesn’t improve, you may want to see a therapist or psychologist to talk about your difficulties.
