Q: can condoms chafe and cause a yeast infection days later? the sex started with vaginal wetness, then eventually got drier, due to the condom?

: condom will not likely cause a yeast infection, what you’re experiencing might be an allergic reaction to the condom or to the lubricant or spermicidal jell they are packaged in.
