Is it normal to have a slight burning sensation inside the vagina after sexual intercourse? I do not have a yeast infection.

A burning sensation inside the vagina after sexual intercourse is not normal and is known as dyspareunia. It is important to identify the cause of this discomfort in order to find a solution. Possible causes could include sexually transmitted infections, insufficient vaginal lubrication during penetration, the use of scented products in the vaginal area, allergies or intolerance to condoms or lubricants. If the cause is not obvious, it is recommended to consult a doctor for further evaluation and treatment.
