A member asked:
Getting recurrent yeast infections since march after taking antibiotics (healed now) but still getting tiny posterior fourchette tears after sex. help?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Vaginal ? tears: Lack of naturally produced lubricants can occur, especially after chronic vaginal infections with yeast or bacteria, and pain with the tears due to lack of lubrication can increase the likelihood, since anxiety about pain also decreased natural lubricant production. Get a commercial sexual lubricant from the drugstore to reduce the friction and restore confidence while avoiding pain with sex.
