How to relax

Rachel • “If you can dream it, you can do it”

I’ve been dating my so for almost 4 years now and sex can feel good but most of the time it can feel sore or painful especially when thrusting or inserting. I’ve seemed to associate sex with pain and now I tense up during it and it makes it feel more painful. Any advice on how to relax during sex? I’ve tried deep breathing and trying to relax the pelvic muscles but it doesn’t always seem to work.
