Question
The other day I masturbated and I had like these clumps of dry wetness on my finger. The day before, I masturbated while on my period and used a condom around my finger so that I wouldn't get blood on me. The following day, I got this dryness. This is the first time it's happened to me and I'm scared because I don't know what it could be! Could it be that I'm possibly allergic to it or anything close to that?
Answer
This is all probably normal. Your natural vaginal discharge changes during your menstrual cycle and the days after your period can be very "dry." If you are sexually active and your concerns continue, see a doctor.
