Many reasons: including allergy to semen, lubricants. latex etc. Allergy to semen occurs within minutes to hours whereas to lubricants and latex tend to occur 24-72 hours later. See GYN.
(As for perineal tearing, may it be from too much vigor?)
Created for people with ongoing healthcare needs but benefits everyone.
