Brief Answer:
It can be due to anxiety or mild infection

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
Thanks for writing in to us.

I have read through your query in detail.
Please find my observations below.

1. It is important to know if you used condoms during sex. Many people have itching after using condoms for the first time due to allergy and if such a thing has happened then there is no need to worry.

2. If there was unprotected sex then there is a small risk of infection during sex. Though a STD will not cause early symptoms, there can always be an early urinary infection.

3. If it is not disturbing you much and there is no worsening then it can also be from anxiety or not maintaining genital hygiene.

4. Please drink lots of water and visit washrooms regularly. This will help to flush any urinary infection. Wash your genitals twice daily with warm water.

5. If there is burning during urination with discharge or rashes then you have to consult a doctor for clinical confirmation and treatment. Please use condoms during sex if you did not use it.

Hope your query is answered.
Please do write back if you have any doubts.

Respected Sir,

1 : I have not used any kind of condom or protection.
2 : yes it was an unprotected sex (Oral and vaginal)
3 : it is not disturbing , very minor when i concentrate on it.or some time when i chekc it with hands then i feel more.

I do sex with a dedicated GF, But I am afraid if she cheats me so i ll must take care next time.
For the time being would you suggest me some medicine?
And i am going to be married in next month so is it safe to have sex with my wife?
