If your period is only five days late, it’d be pretty unusual, even if you had become pregnant, for you to be having symptoms this soon. Plus, the symptoms you’re describing are also common PMS symptoms, as you said. Since the condom was spermicidal and there wasn’t a full ejaculation, your…

This can be an issue with men with thinner (less wide) penises during intercourse, especially circumcised men (who don’t have foreskins to provide extra friction), and it’s common enough for it to only become an issue once the female partner is more easily aroused and comfortable – which is as it…

Sometimes, when we perceive pain before it happens, we feel pain because (primarily) of that perception. It’s called a perceived pain event when that happens.

Jako: let’s work backwards with your questions. For starters, her itchiness may have been irritation from either the condom OR the spermicide. Spermicides are essentially dish soap, and genital tissue is delicate, so you can imagine that for a lot of people, it doesn’t feel so good. Since irritation…

No need to be embarrassed! Understand that the rectum is not a straight line, but is curved. It’s not only curved, it’s kind of curved twice: if the anatomy of your rectum from a side view was a map, we’d essentially go in from the anus, take a left, take a right, then go up again towards the right…
