I am 23 years old and I am extremely self conscious about vaginal odor. I don't like my boyfriend to perform oral sex because I am so worried that I smell bad. I scrub and scrub my genitals in the shower but an hour later the smell is back. When I asked my OB/GYN about it he said that he would check me for STD's but never explained anything to me. I haven't had an STD ever and I have had this since I was 13, what is it? How do I know if its normal? Please help!
Looking for an alternative to tampons or pads? A user asks about menstrual cups, and we give her -- and you -- the scoop.
I've been having sex for two years now with the same person. There were times we had sex more than once in a day for a long time. Sometimes 5 or 6 times, and perhaps a few days more than that. Before that I would always have a discharge and didn't like it so I would wear tampons non-stop. I don't wear the tampons non-stop anymore. But, my question is this: Does me wearing tampons all the time, non-stop for a while and me use to having sex everyday for two years cause me to be looser than other people? This really scares me because I feel like I'm less of a woman. And I feel like when I get married my husband isn't going to enjoy me because I'm going to be loose. Please help. Thank you so much..
I saw this statement that one of the sexperts named Heather had replied back to a question, and I was wondering how it could be true the statement was the following:
A woman being a virgin -- if, by that, we mean has not engaged in any kind of vaginal sex before -- doesn't necessarily make any difference in the size of the opening since intercourse/vaginal sex doesn't permanently change the genitals in any way.
The last part is what I don't get, I dont understand, I've had sex roughly 20 times, and I can DEFINALLY see a diffrence from when I was a virgin, my whole genitals have expanded and are loose and there's A LOT of room up in my vagina now, before I could only get a finger if that much. AND also there are claims that people who've had alot of sex are more loose, compared to people who haven't had as much sex are more tight. So, to me this statement is VERY confusing cause to me it is very untrue considering my whole downstairs is permently changed. Please Help!
