i cant figure it out

me and my husband have been married for almost 2 months and we have a really great sex life. we have sex close to every night or everyother night. every now and then i get really irritated during penetration it starts to burn but just the first couple minutes, after that its ok until we are done and then it starts burning again. it gets red and swells sometimes. ive been to the doctor five different times about this and they always say its caused by condoms, but we dont use them, or its my feminine wash, but i changed it. it doesnt happen all the time sometimes we can go for a couple months without it. i have no idea what it is or how to fix it.

Perhaps, I don't think it's much of a concern unless it is so painful that you don't want to have sex because of it.  But if it's just in the beginning and afterward, I wouldn't think much of it.

could it be that hes just too big and thats causing the irritation

ive been checked for a yeast infection and its been happening for a little over 10 months now. i thought it might be we were having sex to frequently too but we've taken a break from sex to try that too and it didnt work either

[mami1323]

Maybe you have a yeast infection?  Did it just start happening?  You may just be irritated from having sex so frequently.

im not dry though. i get pretty wet so i dont think that its that

[pcarsey]

Have you tried using something like KY? It could be that you are too dry and it is when he is putting it in that you get irritated.

[lizbeff]

we dont use condoms and i and i think im the most wet at the beginning.

thank you

you might get a better answer on the sex health forum. Try posting there.

Now I can tell you that some condoms I am allergic to and will blister me. It could be that you are not wet enough before you start which is what causes this to happen.
