Pain when inserting XXX into my vagina

I say "XXX" because it's literally ANYTHING above the size of the slimest tampon, so: larger tampons, vibrators (ive tried different sizes), the penis during sex, medical apparatus when having a smear test. My vibrator is the width of an average penis, probably SLIMER actually, and i can only insert it a max of 2 inches before it gets excrutiatingly painful. Same with anything with any width. I can JUST manage to insert two fingers, but it's VERY snug, and if i try and insert another finger it gets painful again.


I've been to 2 doctors about it, one says i'm "very small built, and quite tight" and the other says i have a very strong pelvic muscle and that's why it's so tight. Both gave me the usual advice of relaxing during sex, and using lube. But i've tried this advice and it's not good enough. When i tried to insert the vibrator i was turned on, relaxed, and used lube on it. And still felt immense pain after 2 inches (it was bearable up until then, but not exactly pleasurable).


What am i supposed to DO? I'll never enjoy sex, or even be able to HAVE penetrative sex. I haven't so far - all because of this, and i'm 24.

Hi tiger_tops.


Since you have been to two doctors, I am wondering if a specialist is what you need.

Have you ever had the Q-Tip test to screen for vestibular vulvodynia, also known as vestibulitis?
