Yes but it is also natural that there to be less blood flow to the clitoris and vagina, which reduces sensitivity and can make orgasms both more difficult to achieve and less intense.

I'm really curious and a bit nervous about having sex for the first time. What should both my partner and I know or do to make sure it's a good and safe experience for us both since it's our first time?

To have a good first-time sexual experience, it's important to communicate openly with your partner, take things slow, and prioritize each other's comfort and consent. Make sure to use protection to prevent sexually transmitted infections and unwanted pregnancies. It's also important to be aware of each other's boundaries and to stop if either partner feels uncomfortable. As for contraception, you can consider using condoms to prevent STIs and also consider using emergency contraceptive pills if needed.

I'm having a bit of a situation where two fingers can enter the vagina quite easily, but a penis doesn't seem to go in. Is it possible for a non-erected penis to enter the vagina? I'm feeling a bit concerned about this and would really appreciate some advice.

Yes, it is possible for two fingers to enter the vagina more easily than a non-erected penis. This is because the vagina is a flexible organ that can expand and contract. If the penis is not erect, it may not be able to reach the same depth or width of penetration as an erect penis. If you have concerns or discomfort, its important to consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice.

I've noticed that during sex, my wife often feels pain in her vagina, and I'm worried it might be because my penis is around 7 inches and thick. Is there anything specific we should be doing or avoiding to make things more comfortable for her?
