The only times that happened to me were if I had a yeast infection or a UTI. Why don't you try something OTC, like Monistat 1? See if that helps.

It's possible that you are not using enough lubrication. You can buy some at the store and see if it makes a difference.

If you use condoms or spermicide, it is possible you are allergic to latex or spermicide. So if you use either of those, you could try switching birth control methods and see if it helps.

If you still have burning, definitely make sure you talk to your ob-gyn about it.

So many people are tempted to get Monistat since it is OTC, but you're actually not supposed to use it unless an ob-gyn has diagnosed you with a yeast infection.

My obsetrican and GP have always told me it's okay.
