When I have sex, I can feel this barrier inside my vagina? When I lost my virginity I thought my "cherry" popped, so what is this barrier? It feels like a petruding tissue of some kind..? I really want to get pregnant, but I think this is preventing it, so what do I do?
snarky answered Tuesday June 29 2010, 3:50 pm: Your hymen doesn't "break" the first time you have sex. This is a common misconception. It does tear and over time, most of it is no longer intact. But for a large amount of women, their hymens are still impartially intact until they give birth.
But the "barrier" you're feeling, might actually be your cervix. Some women have a lower cervix, which makes deeper penetration difficult. It does not prevent you from getting pregnant, and even if you had a fully intact hymen and semen made it's way into your vagina, you'd still have the same risk of becoming pregnant.
There's nothing abnormal about you, and every vagina is designed differently. There's nothing you can do, but there's also nothing to worry about.
I do hope though that you're an adult, and you're absolutely positive you're wanting to become pregnant. Many people aren't educated enough regarding sex and the repercussions. Having a child is a very difficult thing to do physically, mentally, emotionally and financially. [ snarky's advice column | Ask snarky A Question ]
