Common allergies in men and women during sexual intercourse, including these phenomena
Allergic reactions are very common in sexual life, usually manifested as itching in the female vagina, redness, swelling, itching, or burning in the male penis, and in severe cases, ulcers. But once this situation occurs, many people often believe that they have some diseases and overlook the reason for allergies. There are two main types of female allergies: semen allergies: some men's semen can cause allergies in their wives. Allergies often manifest as itching in the external genitalia, sometimes with mild congestion and edema, and a few may cause chest tightness, palpitations, or systemic "rubella lumps". Leucorrhea allergy: Leucorrhea contains many antigenic substances that can become allergens.
Some topical contraceptives, such as contraceptive gel and contraceptive film, can also cause allergic reactions and itching in the external genitalia. Once a woman experiences itching in the external genitalia after sexual activity, it is important to look for the cause. If it is clearly related to allergic factors, anti allergic treatment should be given. If necessary, take appropriate anti allergic medications such as chlorpheniramine, vitamin C, or diphenhydramine before and after sexual activity for treatment. After sexual intercourse, the genitals should be cleaned and urinated once in a timely manner, or squatted down for a while to allow semen to flow out of the vagina to reduce the chance of itching.
Male allergies are mainly manifested in: condom allergies: generally causing redness, itching, or burning of the penis, and in severe cases, ulcers and erosion.
Friction allergy: In some allergic individuals, skin friction, even slight irritation, can cause certain allergic reactions. Localized edema may appear in the friction area, with surrounding redness and itching. Drug allergy: A contraceptive film containing 10 ethers of alkylphenoxy polyols and a slightly yellow translucent color, or a contraceptive cream mainly containing phenylmercury acetate, can cause male drug allergies, resulting in penile pain or itching sensation.
Secretion allergy: The mixture of fluid secreted by cells on the vaginal wall and fluid secreted by cervical glands in women is acidic to a certain extent. If a man has an allergic constitution, it is easy to develop allergies after sexual activity. The main manifestation is that shortly after sexual activity, the penis becomes extremely itchy and painful, some may develop small rashes, and in severe cases, symptoms such as eyelid swelling and systemic skin itching or rash may occur. Once an allergic reaction occurs, be sure not to scratch with your hands or scrub with hot water or soap. It is best to rinse with water. Patients can also take oral medications such as chlorpheniramine, calcium gluconate, and prednisone to fight allergies; People with friction allergies should use Antalol.
