For girls, yes, the first time can be painful. There can be pain when the hymen breaks upon penatration. There can also be some blood.

The hymen is the thin membrane that sometimes covers the opening to the vagina if you're a virgin. I say "sometimes" because, even if you haven't had sex, the hymen can do a bit of a disappearing act due to an overzealous workout at the gym, horseback riding, tampons, and even passionate "heavy petting" with your boyfriend. (It's not an impenetrable barrier, anyway, as it has holes to allow menstrual blood to escape.)

When you're turned on, the uterus and cervix rise, lengthening the vaginal tube. When his penis penetrates, the walls of the vagina stretch to accommodate the difference.

For some, the first few times make you feel sore, as it's been an unused muscle or even hurt, if you aren't properly lubericated, like the guy is in a hurry, doesn't arouse you and your body isn't ready.

Relaxing, foreplay, being fully aroused or better yet, you having an orgasm FIRST or using a lubricant like KY-Jelly or Astro-Glide can help.

Wow, I don't even know where to start. To be perfectly honest, that depends on A LOT of different factors - and no, it's not at all nasty. It's totally ok to ask.

The simple answer is that it CAN hurt, but it doesn't have to. If we're talking about the first time a girl has sex, it can hurt a lot if (a) her hymen is still intact (this can sometimes break naturally so there's no telling even if you're a virgin) and is thick (this makes piercing it harder - and more painful), or (b) the guy is a total jerk and isn't being careful.

If you're asking this because you're considering having sex, there are a few things I would tell you to take into account.

(1) contrary to what a lot of people may tell you, sex isn't ALWAYS about being in love. BUT, having said that, the first time you have sex SHOULD be special - don't just throw it away because "everyone is doing it" or because some stupid guy says that you'll have sex with him if you love him - that line is as old as time, so don't fall for it. when you get older, a lot of women realize that sex can sometimes be good even if it's not with someone you really love - but it takes time and experience to feel that way, so PLEASE don't do that if you're young and you're thinking about having sex for the first time.

(2) don't EVER let anyone pressure you into doing something you don't want to do. whether it's your friends, your parents, your boyfriend - it doesn't matter. the only thing that matters is that YOU want to do it and that you're really comfortable with the idea. don't try to convince yourself to please someone or to fit in - at the end of the day, your virginity is something you can only give away once, and you don't want to end up regretting it. what's more is that you should have enough respect for yourself AND your body not to offer yourself up to someone who doesn't value that.

(3) sex - especially the first time - can be very painful, that's true. the best advice i can give you is to take your time, relax - and most of all do it with someone you care about and who cares about you. guys can be very impatient and sometimes inconsiderate - especially if they're young and inexperienced. if he really cares about you, he'll go slowly and he'll stop if it hurts you. there's no telling how much or little it will hurt in your case until you try it - but until YOU are ready and want to because you feel comfortable with it, please please PLEASE don't do it!

(4) take your time. breathe, relax, think about whether or not you REALLY want to go through with it. make sure to have contraception - not just the pill, if you're on it, but condoms. if you don't use condoms, you can catch all kinds of nasty things - and the guy might not even know that he could give it to you. talk to the guy first, tell him how you feel - make sure you are clear and he understands and respects the fact that you may get nervous and may not want to go through with it. it is NEVER too late to say no, but just make sure you're 100% ok with doing it.

Last but not least - if you have an older sibling, it may help to talk to them. Don't be afraid - this is something everyone goes through and it's totally natural. It's normal to think about it - even if you're not ready to actually have sex! Don't be afraid to ask questions, it's better to ask than to have regrets because you didn't have all the facts.

I hope this helps - stay safe and be true to your own feelings!

It does hurt very badly for the first few times. After that it gets better. Good luck and always use safer sex practices and make sure you're ready and mature enough and have a partner who's mature and ready as well. Good luck. 2D

It might hurt the first few times. It shouldn't hurt after that, though. Just take your time and make sure you are properly lubricated.

the first time can ... and a few times after can ... it depends on how aroused you are and if you have an expirienced lover. make sure you are ready and if necessary do not hesitate to use lubricants.

The first time it will but if he is gentle and considerate to you it shouldn't be too bad.
