After my husband and I have sex I feel like I ripped skin on the outside. A lot of times there is even blood. But the other day I looked in the mirror and I really did rip skin, there is even scarring from previous times. To answer any curious questions, we use condoms and we wait until I am ready because I'm kinda dry sometimes. Any ideas on what to do? It's really taking a toll on our sex life, it takes days for me to feel up to par again. Any kind of advice would help, thank you!

Ripped skin after sex?
WOW...ouch...more foreplay...some top quality personal lubricant product that is compatible with condoms,and COMMUNICATION girl!!...:)...it must hurt at the time...tell your partner....:)
Use lots of lube! If you're bleeding, there's something seriously wrong!
Here is an exercise that should help stretch the opening or make it more complient.
" The exercise consists of taking a once or twice daily soak in the bathtub, preferably, although a shower will work. If using a tub, partially fill it with clear warm water (no soaps or bubble bath, etc.) The water will soften the tissues. The actual exercise consists of inserting a finger and pulling against the vaginal opening in each of four directions. With each hold the tension for several seconds before moving to the next quadrant. Doing this over several days should get you to the point where two fingers can be inserted. When you can do this, use two in opposition. They can be on the same hand or one from each. "
Thanks doc, I will try that. We do use lube, but sometimes it doesn't seem to help too much. And no, usually it doesn't hurt at the time. I've gotten used to moving to a such position that it doesnt put pressure on that area, but that's usually in vain too. I guess its just like my hubby says, men are like light switches and women like irons. :rolleyes:
