I'm a 20 year old woman and started having sex a few months ago with my serious boyfriend. I like having sex, but it's sometimes painful when he penetrates, even when I do my best to be calm and relaxed or when we use tons of lube (I sometimes have trouble staying wet even though I'm in the mood). I've always assumed it's because I'm small, tight and relatively new at sex, but even after a few months, it's still painful. I've also never orgasmed during sex, though though he and I are both capable of getting the job done with our hands. So I have two questions: Is there a way to make the pain stop and is there a specific way we can make it so I orgasm during sex? We've tried varying positions to help with both issues, but have only seen minimal progress with the tightness problem. The GYN promised me I don't have anything wrong down there so what's up?

Hi Bill!

I'm an Applied Physics and Planetary Sciences student at Purdue University, and I'm interested in starting up a Planetary Sciences club next year (it's a brand new major for us, I'll be one of the first to graduate with the major), and I was wondering if The Planetary Society does any sort of student/college membership or outreach. Is there anything we can do to be officially part of The Planetary Society, other than becoming members of TPS?

Many thanks,
