So turns out all the above is true but in addition, when I had hysterectomy vaginally, they cut out too much of vaginal canal, from entrance to internal end, mine only measures 7 cm. And there is no way to fix, stretch or lengthen. Told nothing can be done, it's always going to be too short for intercourse, will always be painful and sexual intercourse for me, basically over.

Your condition can be surgically corrected (I have a similar condition, with about 4 to 5 cm depth left). There is a surgery called PPT ( peritoneal pull through), with which they use part of the peritoneum to extend the vagina.
The surgery requires a few days stay in the hospital, but when it is healed out, your vagina should functions similar to before.
I think if you are sexually active, and still young enough, it is a surgery one should consider.
I am relatively old, an I am not interested in men anyway. That is the reason why I don't have this surgery done.
