I’m 15 and I’ve had sex for the 2nd time and this time we used a latex trogon condom and after this time the sex was so painful. Kept me up for days my vagina burns, it’s itchy I get sharp pains. And I pee blood not on my period but the pee is bright yellow. What is wrong?

You may have a vaginal infection and/or a urinary tract infection. It is not normal to have blood in your urine.

You will need to schedule an appointment with your family doctor. He/She will most likely request a urine sample to

test for infection. A vaginal exam may be done to rule out a yeast or bacterial infection. In the meantime, be sure to

increase your fluids (water is best) to help your urinary tract.

After you’re feeling better, you might want to consider the possibility that you have a latex allergy and this is what

caused your vaginal discomfort. Latex allergies can cause redness, pain, swelling, itching and burning.

There are non-latex condoms available for purchase at most pharmacies and department stores.

If you and your partner do not like the non-latex condoms, consider starting a long term method of birth control

like the birth control pills, patch, vaginal ring or DepoProvera injection.
