I am afraid my penis won`t fit my girlfriends vagina.

Hi,

thank you for contacting u sin Ung.no.

There can be several reasons if the penis cannot be inserted into the vagina during intercourse. The penis may be too little erect (stiff). The vagina may be too dry. It could be that you tighten the muscles in your abdomen too much or that you have a ring of the vagina that is too tight. If the vagina is too dry or the penis too soft, it may be that you are not horny enough or very nervous. Take a little longer to become safe and secure in each other. Be sure you want to have sex together. You can also try lubricant.

The vagina is a hugely elastic organ, both in width and length. Many people think of the vagina as a "tube" that is so and so long and wide, but that is not true. Normally, the vagina is a folded organ where the mucous membrane lies in folds against each other. When a girl becomes sexually aroused, the elasticity will ensure that the vagina expands as much as is needed for what is introduced to have room. This means that it adapts and gets a good fit regardless of whether the penis is small or large. And the more excited you are, the more wet, soft and elastic your vagina will be. After intercourse, the vagina contracts again.

I hope the answer will help you relax and I wish you all the best!

Best regards
