Brief Answer:
It could be due to less lubrication.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,

Sorry for such a long delay in my response.

As you say you are not having any problems other than this mild pain,in my opinion it could be due less lubrication during sex which may hurt your vagina.

So please make sure you are having good amount of lubrication during sex,you can use lubricant also.

Hope found useful.
Good luck.
