Help! I had sex last night and it hurt...
So, my DH and I are not trying to get pregnant, I'm not on birth control so it is around that "time" so I wanted him to wear a condom. We usually don't use a condom, only around the end, so it has been a while since we had sex with the condom the whole time.
Anyways, I couldn't handle it after like 10 minutes! It hurt inside my vagina so bad! My old college roomate had an allergic reaction to latex and said her vagina was so swollen she could barely sit down. I was nothing like that. I rinse myself off and it went away, but has anyone else had a situation like this?

Was this condom a different brand than you normally use? Were you using lubricant? Were you using a different lubricant?
And, my inner sex ed teacher wants me to remind you that sperm is also present in pre-ejaculate, so if you are naked and his penis is in the vicinity of your vagina, you could get a super sperm that manages to impregnate you. Please be careful.
Uh, yeah, this. You said it was "around that 'time'"--are you charting? If not, you should absolutely be using a condom the whole time, every time because you won't know for sure when you ovulate. And during fertile times you should also wrap it up before he sticks it in for the above reason.
As far as the pain, what exactly did it feel like? Sometimes I get a little chafed, though we don't use condoms. That goes away within minutes and isn't a problem.
