I can be swollen and itchy for weeks as well. I'm very frustrated and feel terrible for my husband. I make LOTS of my own lube, but I do think it is worse (7 days of itching instead of 1 or 2) when I'm less aroused but don't want to stop. I itch forever which makes me not want sex which makes it hard to get aroused and the cycle continues. I never used to have this problem. But once it started, I've felt like I've had never ending swelling and/or yeast infections. I've been to the doctor where she either finds nothing or yeast. I think I'm either allergic to my husband's semen or no longer being on birth control triggered something because I'm pretty sure this started when we decided to try to get pregnant a year and a half ago. As you can imagine, this hasn't helped with the whole getting pregnant thing. And it doesn't help that I have polycyclic ovarian syndrome either. Washing right after sex helps with the itching, but not with getting prego. I'm nervous about using extra lube because I get yeast infections and UTI's so easily. Also, I think part of the problem is my own wetness- at least for the yeast infection part of the problem. I'm almost always a little wet and after washing after sex, I continue to get wet. I'm wet even when I don't feel aroused. My sex drive is almost non-existent but I can still get wet. I'm frustrated and just want a normal sex life!

Same thing happened to me the swelling always goes down within the day its just uncomfortable. I noticed it happens more when you have been drinking too because your body is dehydrated and you're not thinking about being "wet" or not. Recently though (which i think is because the weather change) I noticed a dry rough feeling after the swelling goes down... anyone else have experience with this?

I am totally empathetic to this post. If anyone can assist let us know as its getting to the point that id rather not have sex than endure the swelling
