A member asked:
Is it painful to have sexual intercourse for the first time?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Typically yes: Usually if a woman's hymen is intact, the tearing during 1st intercourse can be painful. In addition, the anxiety that she may have during her 1st time may cause her to tense her vaginal muscles which may make it more uncomfortable too. Key is: right partner, patient partner, woman controls the pace of things. Good luck.
