Question
My boyfriend and i had sex 3 nights ago. Half way through the sex i just was not wet at all, and it started to hurt a lot because i was so dry. And the morning afterwards i was slightly sore. I didn't think much of it. But 3 days later, my vagina is swollen, itchy and it burns. I'm not sure if it could be from the dry sex or what?
Answer
Sorry, but the only thing we can say is see a doctor. In the future, having a water-based lubricant on hand would be a good plan. You can always add it to the outside of the condom.
