vaginal ripping during intercourse

this has just started happening, my bf and i have been sleeping together for 3 months. my last boyfriend 2 years ago had the same thing with him. i will get a little tear on the back part of my outer vagina (where women often rip during child labour) two or three seconds after penetration. its not a lubrication issue, because im often very wet and turned on, however now i have been dreading sex more and more becasuse it hurts so much after. also his penis is only average in size (same with the last bf). why is this happening?

thanks for any advice- theres not alot of info out there on this topic.

I have tearing in the same area but now I am starting to feel this bumps where the the skin tore. Anyone else have these bumps? I am going to see my GYNO on the 12th of November and I am really worried there could be something wrong with me.

So I have been tearing for a while now just I didn't know why. I got married a year and 6 months ago. It never happened before and about 2 months after the wedding it started. My husband and I lived together for 5 months and then he left for boot camp. I wasn't sexually active for 6 weeks. I asked my mom and doctor and they both said maybe I need to use lub. Lubs irritate my area, so I couldn't use them so I tried Vaseline. I still tore... I'm just glad to know there are other people going through the same thing. Mine and my husbands relationship hasn't been the same since. If anyone has a solution or explanation please let me know!

It keeps ripping because you're not letting it heal properly. It usually takes about 3 weeks for a vaginal tear to heal.
If you can wait for it to heal for 3 weeks, put something like Neosporin on it, and let it air out....you should be good to go.
By air out I mean something like this:
When laying in bed, bend your knees (bring your knees up so your feet are flat on the bed and your ankles are together). Drop your knees to either side. This will help air circulate and speed up healing.
