Severe Vaginal burning after sex.

[Narusegawa]

For four years now, I've been having an issue with vaginal burning after sex.  I've been to my doctor countless times about it and she isn't doing much.  After having a pap smear done, it came out that I had bacterial vaginosis.  After taking the gel insert meds for the five or six days, the intense discharge smell went away.  But about a week after that I went to visit my boyfriend (he is clean) and about the day after we had sex the first time over that visit, the burning started again.

Overview
- I have sex with my boyfriend and urinate right away afterwards.  The next day I'll eat a few cranberry tablets.  (The juice is too acidic for my system.)

- I don't have a UTI.  (I've gone through that test about ten times now.)  This is not vulva burning or urinary tract burning.  However, it burns in the vaginal area after I urinate and feels as though it continues to the inside of my vagina.  It is extremely painful.  Pressure and heat sometimes helps.

- It only happenes after I have sex.  The extreme milking that happenes during sex produces a huge amount of discharge from my vagina.  I asked my boyfriend if that was normal and he said that it was.  (The past partners he had been with were no different.)

- I have a feeling it has something to do with the high constant amount of discharge I've had all of my life.  Ever since I was little the high amount of discharge was normal.  But now, I've become alergic to it somehow.

I'm 20 years old and can't have a normal sex life with my partner.  My doctor tells me to practice abstinence.  Why should I do that?

Help!  Thanks. :)

I have something almost similar. but the discharge color is clear or whitish. i'm clean also. first thing u need to do it get a pap test n if u don't know your status get tested. (i'm scheduling my pap asap) if all is well ask your gyno if u may have an allergic reaction to semen. or Vulvodynia (look it up). it could be one of them not sure..but ask. in the meantime use condoms. The pain is not worth anything. PS: your man needs to be more understanding damn!

I have had the same problem for a couple of years now. Like many of you, I didn't have the issue when I first started having sex. It wasn't until about a year later that the problem started to occur; about the same time I started taking oral contraceptive.
I recently went online to figure out what could be causing the pain. I found a cite that had a list of things that could cause the burning and discomfort, and there was my answer...
If any of you are on oral birth control, that very well could be the cause. The estrogen levels in oral contraceptive make the tissues in your vagina and urethra thinner, and hypersensitive.
The solution could be to stop taking the pill, but I haven't wanted to do that because I don't want to risk getting pregnant- especially seeing as I'm a college student, and neither my fiance nor I can afford having a baby.

I hope this answers the question that many of you have. If I did, I'm glad that I was able to help! :)

most of the stories sound like vaginismus

This sounds like a yeast infection. Use a 7 day dose, and make sure to use all 7.

That sounds exactly like chlamydia.
