Question Posted Saturday December 24 2011, 12:56 am
I have had sex with my boyfriend now for about a year. He recently started going away for university so I only get to see him about once a month, which means I have sex about once a month. Lately, my vagina has been very itchy. It is not a yeast infection because i've had one before. The skin around my vagina is sometimes itchy, but hurts when I scratch it, yet feels relief at the same time. My boyfriend is home again and we've tried having sex but it hurts me so much. I also don't feel as aroused by him, like I have to close my eyes and try not to picture his every flaw. I don't know, something just isn't right! Please help

After speaking with your doctor, and getting yourself taken care of, its to to have a serious talk with your boyfriend about how you may have gotten your infection. If you find out hes been cheating on you, dump his ass.
