Tearing

It's been about 3weeks since I had sex and last night, I tried to have sex with my bf but when he tried to enter it felt like I was tearing! So he stopped and we fore-played a bit longer to get me wetter but it still felt like I was tesring, even when he fingered me, when he touched a certain spot. It hurt at the bottom of the vaginal entrance. What should I do? What does it mean? Please help!

Being checked twice earlier this year does not give you an immunity to getting fungal or bacterial infections.  These things can just happen anytime.  STDs are caused by a different germ.

Rather than speculate what it is, make an appointment with your doctor so that you can get examined and have a proper and correct diagnosis.
The sooner you see the doctor, the sooner you will get help to get it sorted.

If your problem is due to lack of oestrogen causing weakening, the doctor can prescribe a hormone cream for you to use.

Let us know how you get on.

Best wishes.

I know there's no infection or STD because I've been tested twice this year. I just don't know what could cause the tearing. Ive read that lack of estrogen can cause it and weakening of tissue and I just recently stopped taking birth control so maybe that's it?

Look at yourself in bright light with a mirror. Maybe you did get torn. I had this happen & I used neosporin + pain relief. I've also heard of using Zinc oxide. You may need to buy some lube. I like glycerin. If it is time for a gyn check up,
See what the Doctor thinks,rule out stds..
One more idea,I like to have an orgasm,before insertion. Good luck & good love.  Pamela

You may have an infection or simply wasn't ready enough or lubricated enough for penetration.

Sometimes due to hormonal reasons there is not enough natural lubrication.   Use lubrication like KY Jelly on yourself and on your partner and see if that helps.  There are different brands available on the market.  In the UK you get contraception and a lubricant for free from a family planning clinic.

I would make an appointment with your doctor to make sure that there is no problem down below and that you do not have any bacterial or fungal infection and to make sure that you are not suffering from a hormonal imbalance.
