A member asked:
Does your vaginal hole have to be stretched by fingering or tampons first in order for you to have sex? or can you just have sex with no stretching
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Just be gentle: Stretching is not required, but foreplay (sexual stimulation prior to intercourse) is very helpful, especially if you have not had much or any sex in the past. Foreplay that causes sexual arousal will allow your vagina to stretch during intercourse. Forced stretching with a finger not related to arousal or foreplay may be painful and very counter productive. If "fingering" is pleasant, then its ok.

Probably Ok,but hurt: It probably would be tight and so hurt a lot especially if it is not being entered at all. By stretching a little it would be more comfortable for the female partner especially if the penis is large size.
