Thank you for reaching out to our community for advice about how to feel more comfortable having intercourse for the first time.
Fear of becoming pregnant is a legitimate concern. Taking your birth control pills consistently offers protection. The additional use of a condom by your boyfriend provides an extra level of protection.
Sexual interrcourse is as much a physical as an emotional act.
Set the mood so you are both relaxed, allowing time for foreplay and adequate lubrication, and you should be fine.
Sometimes, moral or religious beliefs can impede sexual intercourse. As long as you feel ready, and feel committed to your boyfriend, your first experience should be a good one.
