1 inch Vaginal Tear

[iloverynrynlds]

Okay.  Well. Last night I was having make up sex with my boyfriend of close to a year, and we decided to use a condom (normally we do not) because I thought I was having a HSV2 outbreak.  During sex, my boyfriend stopped and told me I was bleeding everywhere.  I looked down and it was like a water fall.  It was spewing out of me.  It scared the **** out of me.  I jumped in the shower to kind of clean it up and then took a mirror to it and saw a large vaginal tear.  It looked to be about an inch long.  But no pain.  Just mass amounts of blood.  I went to the emergency room and recieved treatment which was stitches inside my vagina but were not able to provide a reason as to why this happened to me.  I haven't had any injury as of late, and my outbreak for HSV2 was so so minor you couldn't even tell it was there and it was no where near the gaping tear.  What causes such a tear?  It was really frightening and I'd like to see what I can do to prevent this from happening again.  Please help :(  Sorry for getting graphic. :(

HSV2 is genital herpes.  I normally don't have any problems with being dry.  I've been with my boyfriend for a year and we just don't use them, we've become comfortable with one another.

I'm just having difficulty understanding why I would tear now as opposed to any other time we have sex.  It's just very bizarre.
