Question

Answer
Dear Katie,

Thank you for writing me I will try to help you out as best I can keeping in mind Please! that I am not a doctor. It sounds like you may have this irritation because of dryness I would suggest trying some lubricant before you proceed with having sex. Also my dear lady I must comment on you NOT! using a condom and it is for YOUR SAFETY! NOT! SO MUCH FOR THE COMFORT OF YOUR BOYFRIEND!!! And if he loved you AS HE PROCLAIMS! he would want you to be save for he knows that he has probably been with other's! THAT CAN PUT YOU AT RISK FOR AIDS! FOR HPV that causes cervical cancer and a lot of other STD'S.

You only have one PRECIOUS gift my friend and that is your health! please be more careful some diseases YOU CANNOT RECOVER FROM!! no matter how young you are.

God Bless
