Probably from friction. Do you shave?

Ive experienced this too! I dont know why it happens.. But its happened to me plenty of times a while back*

I know what you are talking about. I always seem to get irritated after sex. I have been with my guy for 6 years and every now and then, I get almost like allergic reactions or something to his semen and just the friction of sex itself. It is really strange and it is very uncomfortable. My vagina lips get really swollen and hang and I also get like a stinging after the semen is in there. I usually go pee after sex and of course I try and push out the semen as much as possible and wipe really good. I have had plenty of pap smears in the past few months so I don't lnow what it is???!!! Could I be sensitive to his semen or his penis itself? It sounds really silly but I am just curious!! Thanks!!!

Ok.... Ive been with my girlfriend for about a year and a half now and never messed with anyone else besides her... And she tells me she never did anything with anyone else also.. ( I trust she is telling the truth) we never experienced swollen inner vagina lips before untill a couple weeks ago~~ after we have sex and I cum inside or sometimes I dont cum inside (shes on birth control) and then just chill for a little bit... Shes in pain and her inner vagina lips get really fat~~ swollen and hangs out!! It lasts for about 3 full days!! Is my weiner grown too large and torn something in there?? What the heck is going on here!!! We are both very worried...

To my reply ubove, shes shaved bare~~ it usually happens after she orgasms... Its really wet to the point that it doesnt feel as pleasurable for me because I cant feel as much as I do when its just semi wet~ so I dont thing dryness is the cause~~ please help

Not sure. It sounds like not enough lube but who knows. It could be irritation from soap or powder.

This is very common and not something to be too worried about. It's typically from an allergy to spermicides, or gel, or friction, especially if you are dry. Try using a lubricant such as bio-fem actigel, which is also soothing.

I have it too and Im not so much worried but more of disappointed because I love nothing more than to pleasure my self and pleasure my lover.
We have sex alot. ITs been a long period of time I could say.
And Ive never gotten bored.
I wish that it would stop happening so that I could go for hours again.

my girlfriend has an irritation after we have sex and it has only been the last 2 months that this has been happening. every time lately we have had sex her vagina lips get swollen or she is soar after everytime. today was the worst i had every sen it the lips were so swollen and i feel so bad i feel like i might be doing somthing wrong or something. the topics on this page seem similar to her problem does anyone have any answers? yes she shaves and all that it doesnt seem to be an allergic reaction but its what it looks like please anyone that knows what is goin on with her get back to me thank you!!!!!!!

i have that very same problem sometimes and it is caused mostly because me and my bf have alot of sex, and after awhile ill get dry or when hes on top and he'll move his body up more to get in deeper, that may be the cause of your problems or if you men havent shaved then they vagina lips may get anooyed from your hairs touching while theres already friction there.

maybe that is what it is because when im on top i think my hais might be rubbing her after all the friction and such and today we used lube so that might have helped also. iono thanks for the reply!!!

I seem to be having the same problem that everyone else here is having! I have been having sex with my boyfriend for about 3 years now and it just started happening the last 2 times we had sex. We didnt use lube the first time and I was a little dry so I figured that is what did it. But we just had sex again today and it reacted the same way even when we used KY. It doesnt hurt necessarily, its just uncomfortable and not a pretty side. Wish I knew what was causing this all of a sudden.

A few things that may cause this: Rough sex, penis may be too big for you, objects which are not intended to go in vagina, too rough with oral sex!!!!

does that herpes?

Hey, I also posted my own topic, but this is what happened to me, except that it wasn't a result of having sex...I was just itching like crazy cause it was sooooooooo itchy (and one of those stupid not thinking about it reactions, then I realized that maybe I was over doing it and saw the same reaction a lot of people here have written, with it being swollen and hanging out.

I'm not sure why? Perhaps what it was dry and then I further agitated it? I'm curious as to people's opinions, and also how long I should allow it to go down before contacting a doctor.

The annoying thing is tomorrow I am going over my boyfriends' (he lives in NY so I don't see him everyday), and I don't really want him to see that or tell him anything if I don't exactly have to. I'm a pretty private person with things like this. Besides, guys never really want to here anything about it anyhow lol. I'm sure most much rather not know if they don't have to. So if it's really nothing and is going to go away on it's own, great, or if there is a way to help make the inflammation go down sooner, that would be even better!!
