Vaginal Tears
A few days ago I had protected sex with a friend and it had been a while so I was pretty sore afterwards. The first time we had sex that night, the condom broke and he stopped right away. He got another one and we finished. It hasn't hurt to pee or anything but I'm still a little sore. Then yesterday I found a tear at "6 o'clock", I don't know the technical name for it. Should I be worried about an STD or is it just irritation and a tear from being tight?
i get these tears at "6-oclock" or the perenium area - as well. For some reason, that area has just become very sensitive to me - even going to the b-room (sorry tmi) can cause it -- so it sounds like you were under lubricated perhaps... BUT if you're really nervous, or unsure, the best thing to do is get checked.
Well you should be worried about contracting genital herpes as you are not protected by the condom and you have a ripe and ready entry point. The "tear" is likely from being under-lubricated (as well as the soreness).
I wouldn't be worried about STD's really. I think it's more of your body not being completly prepared/too fast or hard/fear...Believe me..tons of reasons.
