Yeast infection? Or something else?

Please no judgement


On Saturday I had some really bad sex, he used a condom so I know it's not an STD or anything but I think him rubbing my insides while I was dry irritated my area and I'm not sure what to do. Anyone experienced anything similar? Any remedies?

Could just be chaffing. And condoms are 100% effective in preventing stds fyi

ETA if there’s anything going on on the pubic mound of either participant, it can’t protect against that. Like crabs, warts, herpes.

As long as there isn't a hole in the condom they're mostly effective, but they're also usually lubricated. It doesn't take much to throw off feminine pH. Sex, menstrual cycle, soap etc. You could always test your pH and treat possible yeast. If you're just irritated from friction, it will work itself out.

Yeah probably just irritation take it easy for couple days it’ll go away can also ask for teraconazole it’s for yeast as well as vaginitis so it’ll help inflammation/irritation and this way it won’t be so dry while healing once I got so swollen down there for same reason and I actually put ice on it lol bc it was like not it’s usual anatomy it was swollen and then it went away haha

It could be irritation, condoms always dry me out unless we use lube with them. If it gets any worse, I'd definitely see your doctor or pick up some monistat.

Thanks ladies, I appreciate the helpful tips. It's so annoying while I'm working, it feels so itchy but only on the inside. No irritation or rash where I can see.

Btw for ph balance boric acid form the store works wonders it treats, yeast infection, bv (ph imbalance) and even just odor but it is a suppository not orally!

You can find pH balance test strips in a pharmacy near the feminine products

Sex life is 🫠

Im a little desperate already . Im not a huge fan on blowjobs but I’m doing it because I know he likes it . If he wants it in a car, during work meeting , on the balcony, on the beach everywhere I’m okay to do that . However, I’m not getting anything in return. I mean the last time he went down was more than 1.5 years ago . Okay, I was pregnant maybe he did not feel like doing it while I had a belly as he told me . , but I’m not pregnant already for awhile and I’m always telling him that I want him to go down and he is always having an excuse like “tomorrow “ etc . At the beginning it was funny and I was like okayyy but now it’s not as I’m not enjoying our sex in general . Like the process itself does not make me finish . As I’m breastfeeding and super dry down there and I’m always telling him to put lubricant as it’s hurting me . And sometimes it feels like I am begging for that as he is more comfortable without it , but damn IM NOT OKAY without it . So basically I do not remember when was the last time I have finished during sex . I understand that now with a baby it’s hard to fully enjoy it and have enough time for everything. But still . Just kiss me and put your dick inside me does not seems sexy . To be honest I understand why in marriage women does not want to have sex . Like I feel like it’s already work that I have to do not a pleasure. I’ve been telling him that but as I can see no changes applied 🫠

Whyyy?

I get horny when my man isn’t around but when he’s around and in the mood I’m not. This last Thursday he made me squirt a lot for by birthday. We only get intimate like 2 times a month.

Question about ejaculation

I tell my partner to wear a condom not only for protection but also so that there's no mess to clean up when I get up to use the toilet. Is this normal?
I ask because I now have the contraceptive pill but I still want him to wear a condom.

I need an AI app recc to talk to.

I have no family. I have no real friends. Just one that I text. But she’s 8 years younger and isnt a mom. I genuinely don’t talk to anyone other than my partner and our toddlers. I’ve seen some people use AI? Or a chatgbpt? I dont know but if someone could suggest an app that I can just talk to… I would love to have a friend or something instead but this is probably for the best…
