I wouldn't have a problem with having sex for a long time, but the fact is that I get sore and exhausted to the point where it isn't even enjoyable anymore. We both are affected by the length of time that it's been taking recently. I want so badly to pleasure him and get upset when I can't. I just g...

I'm not sure what all that entails.

The only thing that's bothering us here is the issue of lasting too long. It frustrates him, as well. Our sex life is a happy one, regardless of the problems we face, because we love one another. There's no thoughts to explore in that. Sex isn't perfect because this isn't the movies. We're allowed t...

I'm no longer dissatisfied with my sex life and neither is he. My partner and I listen to each other and try to explore what feels best for both of us. This has just been a pressing issue as of late that we want to work through.

Are ultra thin condoms just as safe as normal ones?

Hello! My boyfriend and I have been sexually active with one another for about a year now. Sometimes, he can take up to an hour to even start feeling like he's close to orgasm. This has been happening with more and more frequency lately. This causes problems for us because I get really sore from tha...

Do you have any sources that you used to come up with this answer? I like to do as much research as I can
Thank you for answering so quickly, by the way! I really appreciate it and this site is a lifesaver.

Hello, I have a quick question. I've been dealing with cold sores since I can remember and they have always just been the ultimate party pooper. I know that cold sores come the the HSV-1 strain of herpes and that performing oral sex on someone could very possibly give them genital herpes, but what i...

Did I take the pregnancy test too early? How likely is it for sperm to come out of the top of a condom?

My periods have always been pretty sporadic. There's never been any real rhyme or reason behind them- one of the many reasons I chose to go on birth control. They've been coming at the beginning of every month since I've taken the pill, usually by day 2.

I've been using them since August of this year. The first month was a very heavy period, but since then, it's been light... sometimes just a brownish discharge for a few days and then actual bleeding for two days and then it's done.

Hello! I'm on tri-previfem 28 and have been for a few months now. My boyfriend and I use both oral contraceptives as well as condoms when we have sex because we wanna be really responsible. I'm on my third day of placebo pills and have yet to have my period. I bought a home pregnancy test to check a...

That makes me feel so much better, thanks!!

We use a back up form of BC (condoms) anyways, but I like to be extra careful. So UTI medications such as Cipro don't normally clash with oral contraception??

Yep!! I finished the treatment like a day before my withdrawal week ended

Hello! I was recently being treated for a UTI with ciprofloxacin. I took it twice a day for ten days and recently completed the prescription during my placebo week of my tri-previfem birth control pills- about two days ago. I refrained from sexual activity during this time and I just started taking ...

a) Sometimes I get frustrated and like I said, it feels as though I sometimes even get overstimulated and won't be able to orgasm because of that, but mostly he says that it makes his jaw/ tongue hurt if it takes a while and I don't wanna cause someone I love any harm haha it's frustrating to me bec...

He can make me orgasm from oral sex generally about half of the time, but it takes a little while. We've tried other positions and I've been telling him more of what I like and don't like, which seems to help some. Like I said, we've talked about it and yes, we do stop if it ever stops feel comforta...

My boyfriend and I engage in oral sex fairly often and he used to be able to make me orgasm really easily from that, but lately it's been a lot harder for him to do so and it's frustrating. I try to relax and enjoy the moment, but I get anxious if it takes a while and sometimes it feels like my clit...

So even if my period is a little late or even skips, I should be okay? The condom has definitely been intact after every time we've had sex. He removes it properly. We watch our hands before touching one another's genitalia after sex. And I use my birth control pills just about to as perfectly as yo...

Hello! I have been in a serious relationship for a while now and we've been sexually active for a few months. I started on birth control about a month and a half ago, Tri-Previfem, and I take it consistently every single day. I've never missed a pill and have taken it at the same time everyday. We a...

Okay, so all of this is normal, from what you suspect? I know to talk to my healthcare provider as well. It's not spotting. It's a lot of blood. And it started three days into the last week of active pills and has been going on since, so like 5-6 days. My periods are usually pretty long, but never t...

Okay, thank you. How long does withdrawal bleeding typically last? It's just such a hassle and I want it to be over with haha I've bled for about five days now, with no signs of any change in flow. Am I still protected from pregnancy by the pill even though I started it in the middle of my cycle? My...

I have severe periods usually because I have poly-cystic ovarian syndrome, but this is just an excessive amount of blood. And yes, had I not started the pill, it was projected that my period would've started around this time, though they're pretty unpredictable due to the cysts.

I started a triphasic oral contraceptive about three and a half weeks ago. I started the pills during the middle of my cycle as opposed to waiting until the day of my period. Everything was fine up until these last few days. I have been having horrible cramps and bleeding extremely heavily, sometime...

Am I still as protected as I normally am from pregnancy during the placebo week of my birth control pack?

Hello! I just recently began being sexually active. I've only been with one partner and have been with him for quite a while. He is very caring and gentle, but honestly the act of vaginal sex isn't all that enjoyable for me. Is there something wrong with me? It doesn't feel like much aside from a lo...
