Why Do I Experience Itching After Sex?

I am a young woman and I have found that for about 4 days after I have sex I have an itch within my private area that disrupts my sleep and day to day life. What can I do?

Answered on 12th June '24

You might have a yeast infection. This can happen to women after having sex because of changes in the pH balance of the vagina. Itching and discomfort are common symptoms. Over-the-counter antifungal creams can be used to help relieve the itch or you could ask your pharmacist for advice on this. Keep the area clean and dry, wear cotton panties, and avoid scented products. You should see a gynecologist for further assessment and treatment.

If you miss your period and you suffer from abdominal pain, it would be wise to see a doctor. These symptoms might be caused by some other conditions like ectopic pregnancy or ovarian cyst. It is strongly advised to consult a gynecologist or obstetrician for examination and treatment.

I had protected sex and my period is delayed and later seeing light bleeding

Female | 17

There can be several factors if you are experiencing a delayed period followed by light bleeding like stress, hormonal changes, contraceptive use, and the possibility of pregnancy. While protected sex reduces the risk of pregnancy, no method is entirely foolproof. If you are concerned about pregnancy confirm by taking a home pregnancy test.

In case you had sex and did not use any of contraceptives and you missed your period, there is a chance that you might be pregnant. But, it is advisable that a gynecologist examines for a correct diagnosis.

In that case discuss your options and determine the safest and most appropriate course of action for your situation. Your doctor can assess your pregnancy, and provide guidance on the safest and most appropriate approach, which may include medical abortion if you're within the gestational age limit.

I am Sana from manipur. i m 20 yrs old. i have been paining one of my breast for 1 year. by the test i have taken recently, it is confirmed that there is a cyst in my breast.also my hair is fallen abnormally. my question is that- is it breast cancer? if yes, what stage it is? is completely curable? what is the immediate step i have to be taken?

Female | 20

A breast cyst is usually not a sign of breast cancer. If your recent tests have confirmed the presence of a cyst, your doctor may recommend additional imaging tests such as a mammogram or ultrasound to evaluate the cyst and determine what is causing the pain.

I had my last period on 14 April and in March it was on 12 I had protected intercourse on 27 April and 30 April then 7 may and 13 may now my periods are missing

Female | 21

There is still a possibility of pregnancy even with protected intercourse. Menstrual cycles can also vary especially if you are undergoing stress, hormonal changes, or other factors that can influence your cycle.
