A member asked:

Why does sex burn my vagina? i don't have any type of std and no bladder infection or uti. what could be the problem?. we do lube.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Water soluble lube?: If you are using a water soluble lube such as k-y or maxi lube then it is likely that you are experiencing either a ph reaction to his sperm or an allergy. Wearing a condom will rule out the latter. Semen is slightly alkaline and the vagina is mildly acidic and can cause a mild acid/base reaction in some women.
