You can use K-Y jelly instead if you have not used it before. You can also use lidocaine 5%. Apply it locally just at outer one third of vagina. You should nor apply it deeply. You both should engage in foreplay for maximum time and attempt penetration only at complete lubrication. In case problem persists, consult a gynecologist for detailed evaluation.

Hi. If you have been married for 2 years and still have not consummated the marriage, it could be due to either a fear/phobia about sex or some people have it due to regarding sex as unclean etc. It will need a detailed history by the psychiatrist who, if needed, will prescribe you some medicines which will help you to reduce your fear. Lidocaine can be used. Please ensure first that there is adequate foreplay and you are relaxed. Then apply lidocaine liberally to your vagina. Make sure that your partner is wearing a condom. This is very important, since if not, it can numb his penis and cause loss of sensation, and subsequently, loss of erection for him. If you are having fear of too much pain due to sudden dilation you can even try visit a gynecologist who will advise you to try using graded set of dilators till you're comfortable. In addition to all of the above, you can also try take a few sessions of a cbt from a psychologist.
