I know this post was quite some time ago, but I have the SAME exact issue. My boyfriend and I have quite an active sex life, and so I find this to be an almost constant problem. My boyfriend doesn't seem to have an issue with it - especially when I explained to him he is the cause of it. After talking with my doctor at great length, he recommended I start using a betadine douche regularly. There are many sites online to give you specific directions on how to do this. It works - every time. It does cause a bit of dryness and is not recommended if you are trying to conceive. He also suggested inserting plain yogurt vaginally in the interim to keep my pH balanced. It's kinda messy, but also works quite well. Hope this helps!! View Thread
