What is this ring ? - Sexual Health - Women Message Board

I have been with my gf for four years but only had sex with her for the last two or so. She was a virgin before and I was her first ( yay! )

Well, the problem is that she only enjoys sex in certain positions even after all this time. I may have a wider than average penis and she's also awfully small down there but the problem is that in certain positions I definetely feel like a "ring" at the entrance of her vagina. It's very tight and I can barely get past it in those certain positions ( like missionary, her on top, etc ) while when doing it from behind/spooning presents no problem.

I'm really curious to find out what that "ring" so if you have any clues...let me know.

Thanks!

Some women have a thicker-than-normal hymen. It's possible this could be what's going on (that would explain your sensation of a "ring" at the entrance of her vagina). Has she been to a gynecologist? Any sexually active woman should see one yearly anyway and, if this is the problem, it's really easy to fix.

but didn't the hymen break when we first had sex ?

there was no blood when we did it but it was very painful for her.

also we've had sex many many times after...how could she still have a hymen ?

Very doubtful she still has her hymen. The hymen is right at the opening of the vagina, visible to the naked eye, so if that was what you were feeling, you'd also be able to see it there, having too small an opening for your penis. As far as what you are feeling, I have no idea. Maybe she has really strong PC muscles, or her opening is just really tight.

hiya,
Are you making sure shes lubricated enough ? Or if she is concerned it will hurt she may be tensing up without realising it, thus making it tighter.

if you are still concerned, like someone already mentioned, maybe a trip to the docs for a check up would be a good idea.
