writes: I'm in my late 40s and going through menopause. I have a boyfriend who I only see once in a while, outside of a long term monogomous relationship. Every time I see him, I end up with a painful vaginal opening that lasts for weeks. He's not massively huge or anything! I have seen my doctor several times. He doesn't find anything wrong, but has prescribed gynazole and other medications, none of which seems to work. Eventually it seems to just go away, until the next time I am with my boyfriend. I have not told my doctor about this boyfriend because I'm embarrassed about seeing someone outside my primary relationship. My boyfriend and I have both been tested for STDs (twice!) and come up clean. We also use condoms. It is very frustrating. What else could it be?

Also fortunate that you and your lover have been tested for stds - how come that was not embarrassing????? What exactly are you embarrassed about? Don't get that really.It is pretty simple, stop cheating with this man and you won't have the problem you have got!

How would you explain that to your real boyfriend? Why do you feel the need to carry this on? It can't be for physical pleasure if he leaves you sore. If this were a man cheating on his woman, there would be a whole slew of ppl throwing stones at him. I think you need to cut off your relationship with this other man, and the problem will be gone!

I think you should see your doctor again and be perfectly honest with him/her. Obviously there's something wrong happening--you've narrowed it down to when you're with the other man...Could it be an allergy to latex? At any rate, you need to tell your doctor the truth so that he/she has all the data to help treat this problem.

You might be allergic to that brand of condom, try another brand and see what the out come is?

Ok naughty girl, it looks like your boyfriend is tearing you up down there...big or not. Im not judging you hunny, you gotta get yours any way you can. You should probably see your doctor anyway or go to another doctor for an objective medical opinion. doctors are not in the business of being judgemental, they are there to help you not be your mother.
