Irritating Sex

Every time me and my wife have sex she has some type of out break of yeast infection, or blister in the vaginal region or in the tailbone after the incounter. What could this be?

Has she visited the gynecologist regarding this? Your best bet at narrowing down the problem would be there. Regular yeast infections might not always be yeast. I don't know what the blisters could be. If she hasn't already, talk to your wife about making an appointment. These symptoms sounds pretty painful and frustrating to have to deal with every time you have sex. She (and subsequently you) shouldn't have to be suffering through it needlessly.

Do you use condoms? Lubricant? Some types of condoms (latex) may cause allergic reactions. Some lubricants contain sugar, which can promote yeast infections.

I have to add, shower before and after.   If you aren't your cleanest, no offense, you could be "inserting" bacteria.
