Ask the pharmacist: You have so much pain with intercourse that you have been prescribed a numbing drug in gel form to make you less sensitive? Perhaps put more effort into looking for the problem that causes the pain instead of putting numbing gel inside of you. Dose and direction should be from your doctor or pharmacist. www.blatmanhealthandwellness.com

See remark: You should not have pain during intercourse,unless you've infection,or you've tight vagina ?Has any gynecologist assessed you made any comment? Lidocaine is not harmful but it numbs your vagina and vaginal opening.If you have to use it,use equivalent of a small teaspoon Hopefully all is well with you young lady

Bad idea: bad idea because it will make you numb ,and your partner as well and nobody will feel anything. definitely no orgasm. the question is why you are having pain with intercourse. you need to fix that. you are too young for this .if the problem is lubrication try different lubricant. if the problem is penetration try with your partner different position until you find a comfortable one.
