Pain during and after sex?

I'm currently 17 years old and my boyfriend and I are clean and have only ever had sex with each other. He's quiet big and I'm quiet smaller in that area and it sometimes hurts when we start to have sex but it's bearable and it only happens for a few minutes. Recently (past 2 times) it burned so bad during and after. I'm on the depo but I don't think that's the problem, I'm relatively wet and lubricated so it can't be from dryness. I just want to know what's happening so we both can enjoy sex again please and thank you!

He may be of a size that he tore you a tiny bit and this is the burning you feel.  Does it burn after you urinate too?  Sometimes giving that a little time to heal without intercourse can repair the area otherwise, you would keep ripping it.  If it continues, I'd see your doctor but that is my guess for what is going on. good luck

The pain just started happening and we've been sexually active for quiet a while now. The past 2 times it just felt sore-ish after urinating. And I recently got a job so we only try to have sex on the weekends so it's been a week or two.
That's really all I can think of.  So, what about trying some artificial lubricant.  I know you say that being wet isn't the problem but I'd give that a try.  Next step after that is to see your doctor.  Hope it gets better.  I'm sure this gets in the way of your relationship.  good luck
Just to update you: we tried a day after and everything was fine so I have no idea what is going on. Could it be that it's been awhile and I got tighter or something?
probably not.  Might just have been an off day.  Maybe though, try the bit of extra lubrication or make sure you have plenty of foreplay prior to sex just to be safe. Glad all is back to normal!
