A member asked:

After having sex with my boyfriend. my vagina has swollen and it also stings. could this be thrush or something else ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Reaction : This could be a reaction to any lubricant or other additive used during the encounter. Most people are not sensitive to the latex in condoms but that is a possibility and can be acquired over time.
