What Causes Swollen And Itchy Vagina After Protected Intercourse?

I had protected sex on wednesday and now it is sunday and my vagina is swollen. We did use 2 different type of condoms and I was fine with Magnum. The other condom called lifestyle was really dry and not enough lube! We also did have rough intercourse and it did hurt after a while so we took that one as we only continued unprotected sex for 2 mins. My vagina seems to not have a smell but some how swollen and itchy and I can t even fit a finger inside. Is it because I had an allergic reaction to the 2nd condom I never experienced before?

Hello dear
I understand your concern
Your symptoms could be due to mechanical stress that produce rough intercourse along with the allergic reaction of the condoms that produce the vulvovaginitis.
Vaginal examination by the gynecologist will help in the diagnosis.
Doctor will five following advises:
Wash your vagina with warm salted water twice a day for two to three days and then apply Apple cider vinegar: it has excellent antibacterial and antifungal properties
Apply bendryl ointment and if itching is very sever then prescribed mild steroid can be used for short time.
Maintain the pelvic hygiene by using the vagisil cream
Vaginal suppository of the lactobacilus.
Wear pure cotton loose undergarments.
Drink plenty of water and take healthy diet.
Hope this may help you.
Take care and stay healthy.
