Am I allergic to my boyfriend's semen or could it be due to other factors? Can we fix this discomfort and how?

Question

Hello! I have been in a relationship with my boyfriend for 3 years. It is very rare that my boyfriend ejaculates inside my body. The times it has happened, I have felt a burning sensation in my vagina. We want to start trying to have children. However, it's more difficult when this happens. Yes, we haven't done it often, but so far it has happened every time. I don't think it depends on the length or intensity of the relationship... and we didn't use lube those times.

Hello madam, this is indeed a frequently reported complaint. Does it happen every time there is ejaculation? Does it depend on the length or intensity of the relationship? Do you use a lubricant? Depending on the composition and pH of one's semen, irritation is possible after intercourse: the friction that takes place can damage surfaces and this can be made worse by the semen. With that being said, I strongly advise you to consider using a water-based lubricant like KY to assess what to do next.
