1. First Sex
In this case, it is about both losing virginity and the first intimate contact with a new partner.
In the first situation, the pain is associated with the rupture of the hymen, which is also accompanied by bleeding. This does not always happen, but most of the time it does. Unfortunately, avoiding pain in this case is unlikely — you will have to endure it once in your life.
In the second situation, the pain may arise because the new partner is simply not familiar with your physiology. For example, they may not spend enough time on foreplay. As a result, little lubrication is produced, and intercourse will be painful due to friction. Of course, such nuances should be discussed; you need to guide your partner in order to improve your intimate life later on.
2. The Body Produces Little Lubrication
Unlike the previous case, insufficient lubrication here is not related to sex, but to individual characteristics of the body. There may be other reasons as well, such as the intake of certain medications. Either way, long foreplay won't help here.
The solution is to use lubricants.
They are produced on a water-based, silicone-based, and oil-based basis. The main thing is to remember that only water-based lubricants are suitable for sex toys, while oil-based lubricants can damage condoms.
3. Tension
If you are tense, then pleasant sensations are not something to dream about. Simply put, there will be little lubrication. A relaxing massage or (again) foreplay will help.
At the same time, it is important that the caresses bring real pleasure and are not added just for the sake of formality. Think about what really excites you. Maybe it is not at all hot kisses and rhythmic squeezing of the breasts, but watching porn together or oral sex? Don’t forget to tell your partner about it.
4. Candidiasis
Candidiasis, or, in simpler terms, thrush, is an infection caused by the fungus Candida. It is present in the bodies of healthy people. But if its quantity starts to increase (for example, due to reduced immunity), the most unpleasant consequences arise. These primarily include itching and burning in the genital area. Naturally, engaging in sex under such conditions is simply unbearable.
Fortunately, dealing with thrush (or at least its symptoms) is quite simple. You can even buy the necessary medications without a prescription. But it’s still better to consult a doctor.
5. STIs
Sexually transmitted infections also cause pain during sex. In addition, symptoms of infection may include unusual discharges, new formations, burning, itching, and even ulcers.
In this case, a visit to the doctor is absolutely necessary.

6. Vaginismus
Vaginismus is an involuntary contraction of the vaginal muscles, making penetration impossible or very painful.
This condition is primarily caused by psychological reasons. For example, it may be associated with an unsuccessful first sexual experience or a negative perception of sex.
In any case, this problem is solvable. However, if nothing is done about it, the situation will only worsen. Therefore, it is essential to seek medical advice.
7. Large Penis
Size does matter. But not necessarily in a positive way. A very large penis can cause pain for a woman during sex. The thing is that in this case, it suddenly and roughly touches the cervix.
Moreover, unpleasant sensations may be related to the cycle. Thus, during, immediately before, and after menstruation, painful sex may be possible because the cervix is lower than usual.
The situation can be improved by slowing down the pace or changing positions. For example, when the woman is on top, it is easier for her to control the depth of penetration.
Finally
Remember: if any self-made tricks do not help to cope with the pain, you need to go to the hospital. Unpleasant sensations during sex may indicate serious health problems.
