Penetration is always painful?

I have never been able to successfully achieve pleasure from penetration. It hurts! Typically my vagina feels like it's closed shut...every time I try to engage in sex it does not let anything into it. I often find it hard to get aroused , and am not usually lubricated. I am very attracted to my partner but it feels like when it's time to get intimate my parts don't match up with my brain. How can I make penetration successful? Or is it even supposed to feel good? I have tried products like lube , but even a finger up there is very painful and uncomfortable to insert, and ends up being a huge turn off. I am getting bored of just oral sex.

Hi,
I suggest making an appointment with a gynecologist, for a pelvic exam. You may be having difficulty with penetration and pain due to either a thick hymen, an extremely small vagina, or vaginismus ( involuntary vaginal muscle contractions that can make penetration almost impossible & painful). A doctor would have to examine you to determine what is causing the issues.  While you're with doctor, be sure to explain the problems you are having. Sex and penetration shouldn't be painful, and it should definitely be pleasurable for both of you. I hope you're able to find an answer soon.

Take Care
