Painful sex to the point I am almost in tears. I haven't noticed a lack of lubrication.

Hello- good hygiene can help alleviate symptoms of intercourse pain. Avoid scented bath products, such as body washes and shower gels, as they can irritate your genital area and deplete your natural lubrication. Douche with infusions made from antiseptic herbs such as calendula, garlic, goldenseal, fresh plantain, st. John's wort or tea tree oil along with other herbs such as comfrey leaves to soothe irritation.
