    Unable to penetrate...has anyone ever had this problem?

    My daughter just got married a week and a half ago. She was a virgin before and had intercourse successfully on her wedding night. But since then, her husband has not been able to penetrate her. She says it feels like she is closed off and when he tries to push into her, it is very painful. Has anyone ever heard of a problem like this? Unfortunately, she has no health insurance and doesn't have the money to see a doctor but they are both pretty frustrated...

    Foreplay foreplay foreplay and lube lube lube. That would be a start, to make sure that she is more than adequately lubricated. She should pick up a bottle and give it a shot.

      woah! your daughter actually told you this? I dont think i would ever be able to tell my mum this. LOL!
      LB is totally right. lots of lube is definitly the way forward. Sometimes i get 'tight' and need lube to help the process

        I have told her to be sure to use lots of lubrication. She claims she is... hopefully it will get better with time and experience, but she is getting extremely frustrated and I'm pretty sure her husband is, too!

          The good news is that they were successful the first time. So maybe now, without her realizing it, she may be tense with nerves, know that it was uncomfortable the first time. With time and practice, everything should work out, definitely tell her to try not to be frustrated over it, it won't help the cause at all.

            More foreplay. And then some more foreplay. With lots of extra lube at the right time. It should help if she climaxes a lot.
