Vaginal Dryness & Pain 2?

Is vaginal dryness & pain common in young females? I'm only 17 so I doubt it is a menopausal matter. I also use plenty of lube but it is still often painful, and I dry out quikly. However, my fiance & I get to it after just 5 minutes of foreplay. Is insufficient foreplay the case here?

Answers:
I would suggest talking to you doctor, if you are not comfortable with that and rather rely on advise of strangers, you shouldn't be having sex.

insufficient boyfriend is the cause, come over here ill show you how its done
Sorry, never - EVER had that problem. I would talk to your doc. Your gonna hear that A LOT on here. It's gonna get on your nerves, but it's true. Your doc will prescribe you somethin.
FIANCE ur 17 and engaged omg, and no thats not cause, every one is different , it could be because ur not "turned on" enough actully maybe if u try more foreplay it will work
A variety of conditions can cause vaginal dryness. Determining the cause is key to helping you find an appropriate solution. Potential causes include:

Decreased estrogen levels
Reduced estrogen levels are the main cause of vaginal dryness. Estrogen, a female hormone, helps keep vaginal tissue healthy by maintaining normal vaginal lubrication, tissue elasticity and acidity. These factors create a natural defense against vaginal and urinary tract infections. But when your estrogen levels decrease, so does this natural defense, leading to a thinner, less elastic and more fragile vaginal lining.

Estrogen levels can fall for a number of reasons:

Menopause or perimenopause
Childbirth
Breast-feeding
Effects on your ovaries from cancer therapy, including radiation therapy, hormone therapy and chemotherapy
Surgical removal of your ovaries
Immune disorders
Cigarette smoking
Medications
Allergy and cold medications, as well as some antidepressants, can lead to dryness of mucous membranes, including those of your vagina.

Sjogren's syndrome
In this autoimmune disease, your immune system attacks healthy tissue. In addition to causing symptoms of dry eyes and dry mouth, Sjogren's syndrome can also cause vaginal dryness.
If you use condoms, it drys you out more. Use KY Jelly to help.
it is surely the early age problem.i think u r much depressed could be the cause. but if the itching n dry ness goes after few min. then nothing is harmful. if u want u can consult doctor. otherwise its normal to have dry vagina. only when a person gets excited then vagina gets that secretion which helps in easy coition.
Are you using condoms? You might have an allergic reaction to the latex in condoms.

More foreplay will allow you to become wetter in the vaginal canal so sex will be more comfortable. If you are really concerned, see the doctor for an evaluation.
You should probably go to the doctor and see what is going on down there. It is nice to hear that things like that are normal, but it also could be something that isn't normal that you should have checked out. Personally, I have only heard about older women having that problem, but it could be common in girls as well. You could try more foreplay, I don't know if it will help, but have him use his mouth. It feels really good, and should help you out too.
Is it like this EVERY time you have sex, or just sometimes? I know for me (and it's also common for a lot of women) I get very very dry either right before or right after my period. (It's hormonal.) If you're like this all the time, go see your doctor and have a complete blood panel done. It could be that you have a deficiency somewhere. I know a B-12 deficiency can cause vaginal dryness.
