Does Intercourse Cause The Vagina To Stretch Permanently?

When you have sex does your vagina stretch permanently? Whether it s the first time or ever. I m arguing with someone who s saying that a vagina is loose after. I m trying to say that when you re aroused the vagina opens then goes back to normal after. Sex doesn t loosen the muscles. It s from big objects, children and lack of estrogen as you get older. Please help and explain.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,

Intercourse does not permanently stretch the vagina. This process of loosening during arousal and tightening afterward happens in the vagina, no matter how often or how many times the woman has intercourse. After relaxing following intercourse, vaginal muscle tissue naturally contracts and tightens again by retaining the normal position.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ashakiran S,
