Does getting fingered hurt

Fingering, IMO, is severely underrated, often seen as nothing more than a short stop on you and your partner's way around the bases when — if done right — it can be a main attraction. Your partner's hands aren't vagina-ready. Your vagina's a sensitive ecosystem. You're careful about what you stick in and around it, and this should include hands — whether your own or your partner's.

Small amounts of vaginal bleeding can be caused by minor things, such as scratches or tears. The bleeding may also be a sign of a more serious issue, such as an infection. Learn when bleeding after being fingered is normal, and when it might be a sign you need to make an appointment with your doctor. Fingering can be a fun and relatively safe sexual activity.

This is a condition that causes the muscles inside the vagina to tighten up, making it difficult or completely impossible to have sex. The causes of this can be psychological or physical, and range from worrying about the vagina being too small to scarring in this area. You should see a GP for this problem, as you can be referred to counselling or given treatment for any infections or past injuries at the root cause. There are some great lubes out there to prevent friction, but remember to go for a water-based one when using condoms, as oil-based can cause breakage.

I'm 14 and still a virgin, but my boyfriend fingers me and gives me oral sex. For a couple of weeks, my vagina has been itchy and red, and it hurts when I touch it. I don't feel comfortable talking to my mom about this.
