Why is my vagina itching after sex?

Question

I had unprotected sex with my long distance boyfriend, we had sex a lot of times when he visited. A few days after I’ve been getting an itchy vagina and brown Vaginal discharge. I shaved before he visited and the hair is now growing back.

Does this mean I have an infection?

Actually leaving the full bush of natural pubic hair helps to mitigate the risk of many bacterial and fungal vectors. Pubic hair is natural and there for good reason post puberty. It is there to both assist sexually as well as protect. Shaving pubic hair prior to sex is the worst thing you can do because it’s contrary to what the body’s defenses are designed to do. It’s actually less hygienic without hair contrary to modern popular belief.

As far as the discharge, it sounds like a normal case where a lot of sexual activity in a small amount of time changed the pH or flora of the vagina. This is quite common when people don’t have regular sex. It takes the vagina some time to adjust. Naturally the vagina is very acidic which also further helps protect against bacteria and any type of fungal infection. Semen is more on the alkaline side of the spectrum. So if he ejaculated inside you, that can further change the pH balance of the vagina short term. Again though, regular ejaculation inside or regular sex in general will cause the vagina overtime to adjust and accommodate regular activity. It’s the sporadic activity which is where you will find more issues like this. Any infection can also spread and cause a UTI. I would just watch it for the next couple of days. If it gets worse or persists, you should see a Doctor who will probably subscribe an antibiotic.

You might have a yeast infection or a UTI. Did you use condoms every time?

Sometimes intense sex (like if he just jackhammered away) can cause a lot of irritation. Use lube next time you have sex even if you are wet. It makes the sex so much better for both of you.

How many rounds of sex did you have?

Relatively intense sexual activity can cause bleeding from the cervix and that can result in a brownish discharge. The itchiness is an indication of a possible infection, but not necessarily an STD. In part it depens on exacty what types of sexual activities you were doing. Some activities have an increased risk of transmitting infectious processes.
