Well this is really embarrasing but after
i have sex my vagina hurts, not all the
time but when i urinate. And it also seems
to swell up.. not alot but it is
noticable, and after maybe a day it goes
back to normal.. I dont know what it is..
but im worried about it and i dont know
what to do..
I thought at first it was from having sex
too much.. like his penis rubbing against
the walls of my vagina too much to cause
irritation but now i dont know and im
really worried...
thanks

I wouldn't be worried. Your original
assessment was probably the correct one.

just a wild guess but sounds like you two
need to use some lubricant to suppliment
your natural lubrcation so that there is
not too much dry friction . and maybe just
maybe douche after sex to keep everything
clean at least once in a while ... be safe
be happy ...wazzywoman

I advise against douching that often!!
Douching isn't healthy in the first place,
and douching after every single sexual
encounter would seriously mess up the
woman's natural lubrication and ph,
inviting infection and yeast.

Douching is cleaning out the inside of the
vagina through an artificial means. You
basically squirt cleansing stuff up inside
of your vagina to clean it. However, the
vagina is a very delicate area. Cleaning
it can upset the carefully monitored PH
(acid/base) levels inside of the vagina.
This PH level is necessary to keep
bacteria and yeast under control. If this
balance is messed up, you can be more
susceptible to yeast infections and other
bacterial infections.
The vagina naturally cleans itself; that's
what the common discharge is for.

No, I don't think you should.

She's right, doctors would tell you not to
do it too. But try using lubricant to
reduce the irritation after sex.
Especially if you are having sex often or
for a long time, sometimes our natural
lubricant just isn't enough.
