Don't worry about the size of your vagina.  

You do not need any operation.

When you do have sex, ensure that you get plenty of foreplay - kissing, touching.  When this happens, you get turned on which in turn starts the inside of the vagina to lubricate.  When you are well lubricated the man will be able to enter the vagina with ease.  Always get the bloke to use a condom to safeguard you from catching any sexually transmitted diseases and to also avoid getting pregnant.  If you or they don't have a condom to use - then don't have any sex unless you do want to take the risk of getting pregnant.

Sometimes a woman may not been aroused enough or the body for whatever reason (which can happen also happen as you get older) not produce enough natural lubricant.  When the vagina is dry it will be uncomfortable if not painful for the man to enter the woman.  KY Jelly or other sexual lubricants are used to help lubricate the private parts.  The man also can apply some lubricant to his penis as well as the condom when he is wearing one.

If you have not had sex before, it may feel a little uncomfortable if your hymen is not broken and if you are tense and not relaxed. The hymen is further up the vagina and you will not be able to see it.  Sometimes when a girl or young woman is very athletic or if you use tampons, the hymen can break without you knowing that it has.  Having a broken hymen does not mean you are not a virgin.  A virgin is a female who has not had penetrative sex.

When having sex for the very first time and the hymen is broken in that way, some females may notice a spot of blood and this is quite normal.  Should bleeding carry on and discomfort is felt with urination, that would indicate a urinary infection and would require a doctor's appointment.

No operation. The first time you have intercourse when the male ejaculates in your vagina it will then break the hymen. Don't freak out when you see a bit of blood or it is uncomfortable the first time, perfectly. Honestly you need to be using condoms and don't depend on the guy to bring them. You bring your own.

Hello!

If you're still a virgin, you don't need to get operated before having sex because your hymen will tear as your vagina expands to accommodate your partner's penis during sexual intercourse.

However, don't forget to use condoms for protection from STDs.

No. when you first have sex, your hole will adapt to his part, it will hurt at first but its small because you havent had sex, but once you do, it will adapt to it and get used to it.
