Brief Answer:
Visit a gynaecologist

Detailed Answer:
Hello sir, thanks for trusting us with your health concerns.
It is a common problem in newly married couples but one and a half is a really long time so in my opinion you need to visit a gynaecologist at the earliest.
At times there is some physical barrier at the level of vagina
But in case it is functional and just Because she is scared then you will need regular counselling sessions with a gynaecologist or may be a psychologist too.
Win her confidence by talking to her in a comforting way and then try in a comfortable environment.
I hope you will succeed in this eventually
Regards
Dr Manisha Jain
