Hi,

It is probably not enough lubrication causing the problem. Adequate foreplay and stimulation will help to ensure proper lubrication of the vagina. Call your doctor if home remedies are not working. Physical examination may include a pelvic examination . If a physical problem is suspected, appropriate tests will be ordered. Sex therapy may be helpful, especially if no underlying medical cause is identified.

Thank you for the response. Can I just ask how sure you are? I ask only because I am paranoid. Are there any symptoms that would lead you to think otherwise that maybe I would not know of? Also, what is sex therapy and who might it be helpful. Thank you again for your patience and kindness.
