My husband and are just married and have had sex about 10 times now (I was a virgin before getting married, he was a virgin before marriage too). Each time felt fine for me, but this last time, immediately following intercourse I felt an intense burning pain in my vagina. The pain subsided as new wetness began to coat my vagina again. I felt no pain during sex, just after. We didn't use a condom, and he even withdrew before his ejaculation. I had felt adequately turned on and I had an orgasm, so why did I have pain? We didn't use lubrication, but I've done it with him without lubrication before and it was fine. I don't really want to use lubrication, anyway, because I got a UTI from one before, I think. Anyway, hope y'all can help.

Oh, I forgot to say that the pain and burning lasted for about an hour

We can't make a medical diagnosis on line, but we can tell you that pain during or after sex can be caused by a number of things, including urinary tract infections (UTIs), yeast infections, and sexually transmitted infections. It can also be caused by a reaction to condoms:
Some people who experience discomfort or burning when using condoms find that switching brands of condoms clears this up because they are sensitive to the kind of lubricant used on the condom.
Other people are sensitive to the spermicide on some lubricated condoms. They can use unlubricated condoms and add their own water - or silicone-based lubricants.
Finally, about one to two percent of people are allergic to latex, the material that makes up most male condoms. Latex allergies can cause itches, rashes, swelling, and tingling. People with latex allergies may want to use polyurethane male or female condoms instead.
There are also emotional causes of painful intercourse for women, including gender identity conflict, a history of rape or incest, or intense childhood suppression of sex, all of which can lead to vaginal spasms that prevent penetration. Other emotional causes include hostility, anger, or resentment toward her partner or previous partners.
Hope this information helps!

Its perfectly normal to have pain after sex. You maybe have gotten a little bruised, is all. The reason why you may not have felt pain before is because perhaps your husband was gentler your first few times, or maybe you were not as wet this time. As long as the pain goes away it's nothing to worry about.

it is called honeymoon vaginitas. as you get used to having more regular sex it should subside. also, putting one of the creams that are out to keep moist helps. it the pain is deep and persists see a doc about underlying conditions

Give that poor baby a break and turn over for your husband. Believe me he won't mind. Have fun.
