Yes: There can be small microtears in the vagina following intercourse, but especially following first intercourse. You may want to control the depth of penetration/speed, etc, by changing positions and being on top. Over time the vagina, which is made of elastic tissue, will stretch, as well, to accommodate the penis, to a certain degree.
