Am I allergic to condoms?

Question - (18 May 2010) 5 Answers - (Newest, 19 May 2010)
A female United Kingdom age 26-29, anonymous writes:

me and my boyfriend have just had sex for the first time together, it wasn't our first time completely as we have slept with other people before.

every time i have sex and use a latex condom, it gets about 10 minutes into it and it feels like it hurts, like a burning feeling. i can still feel pleasure but not as much as the pain. then i pee, and it burns, this happens every time i use one, and today, i thought it was weird how it hurt, and i had a look, and the inner part of my clitoris was swollen and red at one side. i don't know whether i am allergic to condoms, its friction from them because i get dry, or i have an std, which i dont think i have as i have used a condom every time i have had sex. can someone give me some advice?

The Realist agony auntIf you want to try a simple test for yourself then take a latex condom and rub it on your inner wrist for a while and see if any sort of rash developes. There could also be a problem with the lube on the condom itself. Go to the doctor and if you want to keep having sex then try many different kinds of condoms, each one test on another part of your body before use so you can avoid the rash as much as possible.

Are you allergic to bananas? Many people who are allergic to latex also show a reaction to bananas but it's not 100%. Some folks can eat bananas and still break out from latex.

Are you lubricating? If you're dry our could be chaffing. Try some good lube as well, most pharmacy's today sell some good sex lubes next to the condoms.
