Hello- Using Lox gel or any other local anesthetic to stop vaginal pain is simply asking for trouble. Suppose you put your hand over fire and eat a tablet that stops the pain of injury and not the injury, you wont remove the hand and your hand will be burnt very badly. Same is it with these gels. Vaginal pain is due to frictional injury. You and your partner may be able to minimize your vaginal pain with a few changes to your sex routine. Try being on top of your partner during sex. Women usually have more control in this position, so you may be able to regulate penetration to a depth that feels good to you. Communicate with your partner what feels good and what does not. Also, longer foreplay can help stimulate your natural lubrication and reduce the pain of penetration, as do synthetic lubricants.
