Is there a cure for fear of penetration?

Time and patience: Typically this is due to a painful experience in the past. Make sure your partner uses lubrication and doesn't' try to force things. Sometime using some type of vibrator will help get past the fear.

There's help for you: First of all, i would ask if you are a survivor of abuse or assault. If you are, i hope you have found a good counselor with whom you can explore the issues of vulnerability that sexual intimacy may engender. Secondly, have you had pain with penetration? Repeated pain with intercourse isn't reinforcing. Try a lubricant, take your time with sex, and talk with your doctor about next steps. Lgromkomd.
