?????

Anyone please help....Whenever I have sex with this one person, which he is the only one I am with.  Within 24-48 hours after sex with him I develop external vaginal itching and odor!  It's not a "fishy" odor and I have NO discharge or anything else out of the norm.  The odor is just stronger than usual, almost like a post menstrual odor!  Anyone have any ideas or advise for me????

I have no symptoms of anything else other than the two mentioned above.  Thanks!!!

Ya I am sure it is a bacterial issue of some sort...The odor is NOT horrible to where it would be some kind of STD or Yeast Infection and very minimal itching. I have 5 tablets left of Ciprofloxacin which was prescribed for a UTI a while ago but is also used for bacterial infections so I am probably going to take the 5 I have left and hope that helps.

Does he ejaculate in you??
I have experienced a similar problem. I found that if I engaged in too much sex whether my partner ejaculated in me or not, the ph balance of my vagina would be altered and it would produce a noticeable odor for a couple of days or persist longer if I continued the frequency in sex. Bottom line, it was a bacterial infection. But my GYN assured me that this was my body's way of "righting itself". A prescription fixes everything up real quick!  It's nothing bad and nothing to worry about... My GYN told me it'll happen from time to time, but it's natural. Just a sensitive ph balance. Good luck!

Ya no condoms are being used. My symptoms do eventually go away after about a week he does smoke weed so I am wondering if that being in his system has anything to do with it???  Cause I have never had the issue with anyone else that I have been with.  I am on the pill, but I don't think that is an issue either.  HMM!!!  Maybe I am allergic to him...LOL

Do you use condoms?  It could be that your having a reaction to the latex.  If you dont then I would go see a dr....you might have a bacterial infection.  I had one and at first I didnt have a bad odor or heavy discharge but as time went on it got worse....and it was like you said everytime I had sex with my bf.  I kept picking with him saying I was a allergic to him!
