Painful sex

Me again, my curious mind likes to know things. lol
I was wondering why this happens to me. I started having sex with my bf of more than a year; about 4 months ago or so. I was a virgin and well it was VERY VERY VERY painful when he first entered me. I honestly began to cry because of the pain. After we were done; I was walking ok, but when I would walk it would hurt me inside. 4 months later after the first time we did it, it still hurts. I mean I am "moist enough" (as my dr likes to call it) and when he enters me; it still hurts me. Most of the time when we are having sex; I have to tell him to stop or pull out because the pain starts kicking in. I some times feel like because of the pain I am not enjoying sex as much as I should or want to.
I asked my dr and she said because I wasn't "moist" enough, but I honestly don't think that's it. Any ideas ladies? thanks!

It could be vaginismus, or it could also be vulvar vestibulitis. To me it sounds a bit more like vestibulitis (also called vulvodynia).  The reason the penis hurts more than the toy could be that the toy isn't as wide as his penis.  If your problem persists, try to find an OB doc specializing in pelvic pain.  At large universities you can sometimes find a pelvic pain clinic.  Whether it's vaginismus, vestibulitis, or something else, a pelvic pain doctor will be able to diagnose it best.

I know this is an older post, so I hope you see it. Please check out Vaginismus. It sounds very much like this is what you're dealing with. Look up vaginismus.com & Also check out Yahoo Groups: Vaginismus & Primary Vaginismus. (If you haven't joined a group before, it's easy, just go to Yahoo Groups, search for Vaginismus, and then you can see which group (there are several) you might be interested in. You have to join the group, but the moderator's are really good at

You know I had to tell him that we should try lube just in case. I mean...we have sex a lot. It's like almost every time we see each other we end up having sex. I get really comfortable; I don
