Dryness, Inside Of Vagina Hurts, On Birth Control. What Does It Mean ?
About two weeks ago I cured the BV that I had with antibiotics from the doctors. Had sex with my bf multiple times after the 10 day restriction. at one point I felt dry and the inside of my vagina hurt. I'm never dry during sex. What does this mean ? Jus got on birth control a month ago , can this be the cause? And is it possible to get BV again in such a short period of time? I haven't had any symptoms of it but I'm curious

Hi
For the pain in vagina you may get investigations like pap smear. It is possible that bacterial vaginosis re-occured. It is also possible that you developed other infections like candida due to use of antibiotics. Whatever is there, it will show up in pap smear.
Dryness of vagina may be caused by oral contraceptives. May consider other forms of contraceptives like IUD, etc.
