Why is my vagina itching after protected sex?

Patient's Query

I noticed that recently I've been Vagina itching since I had sex..what could be the cause because it was protected

Answered by Dr. Nisarg Patel

It's possible that the itching could be due to a sensitivity or allergy to the condoms, lubricants, or even certain soaps or laundry detergents used during sex. Sometimes, friction or irritation from intercourse itself can also cause itching, even with protection. I recommend avoiding any potential irritants, keeping the area clean and dry, and wearing cotton underwear to help with airflow. If the itching persists or worsens, it's best to see a gynecologist for a proper evaluation and treatment.

my belly and my vagina hurt

Female | 18

Urinary tract infections often occur when bacteria enter the bladder and vagina. You might feel pain when peeing, experience lower belly pain, and have the urge to pee frequently. It's important to drink plenty of water and avoid holding in your pee. Sometimes, antibiotics are needed to help treat the infection.

I had my period on 27th October and had sex on 2nd Nov(7th day of my period and I was clear on that day) and took ipill on the same day .after 4 days today I had my bleeding again 7th Nov. So am I pregnant or is this normal period?

Female | 22

Considering that you had sex on the 7^{th} day of your menstrual cycle and took an oral emergency contraceptive, it is highly unlikely for one to be pregnant. Bleeding after taking an emergency contraceptive pill is normal; it occurs because your body reacts to the increased dosage of hormones in the tablet. Nevertheless, if you have any apprehensions or develop any weird symptoms seek a gynecologist for accurate diagnosis.

Am girl 22 unmarried my left side of labia big lips of vagina per left side ak گلٹی ha wo move karti ha jb hath mein پکڑنے کی کوشش کروں .toh hath mein nai ati lakin wo گلٹی ہے .two years say .no pain .جب میں بیٹھوں واش روم کرنے کے لیے تب بنتی ہے

Female | 22

Being worried about a lump in the labial may be a problem only too common with humans. The condition you're giving can be a cyst or swollen gland, which can develop without pain or any other kind of difficulty. This may be because these can sometimes grow or shrink as you move or change your position. Even though it's not a big deal, it's still wise to get it checked out just for the sake of peace of mind and to eliminate the possibility of a problem that is hidden by some diseases, only check-ups can guarantee the preservation of your health.

Late period. Not using protection.

Female | 22

Periods can  be delayed not only due to pregnancy but also other factors like stress and anxiety, etc. Try a pregnancy test if you're concerned.. if the test is negative then visit a gynec for irregular periods problem.

Im having pinkish brown watery discharge for 3 days and I've been trying to get pregnant, my last menstral period was on 29th jan 2023 and from 6th feb to 12th feb( till my ovulation )we are trying for a baby and now from 13 feb to till date(16th feb) im having these discharge so am i pregnant? When should i take a test?

Female | 26

It's probably a sign of implantation bleeding, which occurs when a fertilized egg attaches itself to the uterine lining. To get the most accurate results, it is recommended to wait until about a week after your missed period to take a pregnancy test.

My fiance had taken birth control pill before 15 days Now she got the periods But the blood flow is less Is she pregnant ?

Female | 21

It's unlikely that your fiance is pregnant Birth control pills alter hormone levels, which can cause lighter periods. However, if you're still concerned, take a PREGNANCY test or consult a doctor Remember, birth control pills are not 100% effective at preventing pregnancy, so it's important to use additional PROTECTION if you're not ready to conceive.

मैंने 10 दिन पहले sex किया था उसके बाद प्रेग्नेंसी न हो इसके लिए हल्दी अजवायन नमक का काढ़ा लिया था मैने 1 केजी पपीता भी खाया था अभी लेकीन कुछ दिनों से मेरी वेजाइना में जलन और दर्द हो रहा है और टॉयलेट सुसु में blood आ रहा है मुझे क्या करना चाहिए

Female | 21

आपके लक्षण — वेजाइना में जलन, दर्द, और टॉयलेट करते समय खून आना — संभावित रूप से यूरीनरी ट्रैक्ट इन्फेक्शन (UTI) या किसी आंतरिक संक्रमण की ओर इशारा कर सकते हैं। घरेलू नुस्खे जैसे काढ़ा या पपीता प्रेग्नेंसी रोकने का सुरक्षित तरीका नहीं हैं, और ये शरीर को नुकसान भी पहुँचा सकते हैं। आपको तुरंत डॉक्टर या गायनोकॉलजिस्ट से मिलना चाहिए। वे यूरिन टेस्ट या अन्य जांच करके सही इलाज बताएंगे। देर करने से इंफेक्शन बढ़ सकता है, इसलिए खुद इलाज न करें। भविष्य में, प्रेग्नेंसी रोकने के लिए सुरक्षित और मेडिकल रूप से प्रमाणित तरीकों का ही उपयोग करें (जैसे कंडोम या इमरजेंसी पिल)।

I am 17 year old female and i had swelling in my vaginal area a few days back. Now i am having alot of yellowish discharge.

Female | 17

It looks like you have a vaginal infection. The­ swelling and yellow discharge are­ common signs. Infections can happen because­ of too many bacteria or yeast. It is important to ke­ep the area cle­an and dry. Wear cotton underwear and do not use­ scented products. Drink lots of wate­r and eat good foods to help your body fight off the infe­ction.
