Hi Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern...

Painful intercourse is a common problem. It arises due to due to vaginal dryness or less vaginal lubrication & not dry penis. Normally there is enough vagian l lubrication produced by vagina itself.
Vaginal dryness or less vaginal lubrication can arise due to low level of oestrogen, insufficent arousal, anxiety & due to some medicines or irritants in soaps or detergent.
You should use lubricants during sex. Lubricants make sex less uncomfortable rather than for long-term vaginal lubrication. Alternatively vaginal moisturizers can be an effective way to minimize vaginal dryness over several days with one application.
One thing can be done to improve natural lubrication. You should increase the time of foreplay, before engaging in sexual activity. It would also be helpful.

If problem persist visit a physician
Hope this information helps
