Intense Vaginal Discomfort

I had sex with my boyfriend a few days ago and we used lubricant. We have a few times before this.  Every now and then I've experienced pain during sex, and I tense up making my vagina very tight. About 2 days ago, I began feeling intense itching on the lips and entry way of my vagina, followed by unbearable burning sensation during urination and it has not let up. I've also noticed each time I urinate, the amount of urine is less than normal. I have never experienced this before, nor have I ever had a yeast infection or an STD, and I've been in a monogamous relationship with my boyfriend for 8 years. It is Friday and I cannot get to my doctor until Monday.  I have used Vasoline and Vagisil, and it has done nothing.  Has anyone experienced this for the first time spontaneously and similar to me?  Please help.

You didn't mention your age, but it could be hormone related.  People of all ages nowdays experience hormone disruption from the foods we eat!  Sounds like you have low estrogen, which can affect vaginal and urinary function.  Have your hormones checked, in the mean time use lots of lube so the vaginal tissues dont tear.  A little bit of OTC hydrocortisone is also helpful for the itching and swelling on the lips and might give some relief.

Hi
Yeah i had very similiar things to what you had earlier on in the year in the sense of my vaginal lips was very itchy and so was the entry of the whole, it hurt when i went for a wee but also just after i went for a wee does that also happen to you? And yes the urine got less and less each time also. I ended up going to the doctors because the itching and pain got too much. At first they prescirbed me with vagasil but that didnt help if anything it got worse. I also had spottings of blood im not sure if you have had that? Anyway i ended up getting a call from my GP once the tests came back and i had vagional vagnosis, Not sure if thats the correct spelling and i also got all of them symptoms which you was experiencing after i had sex as well. You should probably get checked out and hopefully they can give you antibiotics asap if you have anything like what i experienced.
Good luck hope it gets sorted soon
