Hi Dr. Kate,
My girlfriend (age 25) and I (age 24) seem to have a countdown clock running whenever we start. Let me elaborate: when we are fooling around, we always begin with foreplay, but after 10-15 minutes of foreplay she'll have cramping. This obviously puts an end to anything further. We have never made it past foreplay in the two years we've dated. Also, we are both virgins. What can I/she/we do to get our sex life going? Read More »- Let’s talk: Comment (3) | Blog

Hi Dr. Kate,
My boyfriend and I have been having sex for just over a year. We were using condoms, and now that I am on the pill, we rarely use them (we both prefer sex without one). I would really like to experience what it feels like to have him ejaculate inside me, but we are both freaked out about this for the obvious reason. Is there any time during the month when it would be "safest" for us to try this?? (When would the least likely time to become pregnant be?)

Dear Dr. Kate,
My question is this: I have a friend that is a 26-year-old married man. He's been married for about five years and has three kids. We were talking the other day in a circle of friends and the subject (as usual) turned to sex. He said that the smell and taste of his wife's vagina had changed dramatically since she had given birth and the odor was quite pungent no matter what. I have since been horrified--will my vagina have a strong odor and/or bad taste in the future when I decide to have children? I asked my friend about it and he said it happens to all women. Say it isn't so! Read More »- Let’s talk: Comment (0) | Blog

Last week my partner saw K, a 30-year-old patient, who's been a happy oral contraceptive user for almost ten years. K has been with her partner for five years, and she came in for her annual exam last week complaining that her sex drive was non-existent for the past few months. Did K talk about her new stressful job, or her sick parent, or the rough economy? No -- she wants to get off the pill, believing that her birth control is killing her libido.

Dear Dr. Kate, Is it common for women to pass gas during sex? There have been times when my man is downtown doing a fine job and I lose control of that particular area. Is there anything I can do about it? I'm so embarrassed when it happens...fortunately it doesn't seem to faze my guy. I still... Read More »

Hi Dr. Kate, I was recently diagnosed with Trichomoniasis. My doctor gave me medication and it went away. I read in the pamphlet thing that came with the meds that it is an STD. Me and my partner are monogamous so how would I get an STD? My boyfriend had also recently been tested and all came...

Dear Dr. Kate,
I have been sexually active for about 6 years now. Today me and my man had sex and I started bleeding during it. I think it might have been caused by the sex position--doggie style--because I also had the same problem with one of my exes. It seems like when we...

Hi Dr. Kate, A friend of
mine and I have both been diagnosed with HPV in the last year--she
is 29, I am 33. We both have abnormal, benign cells. We have both
been told by our doctors that the HPV will likely clear on its own.
I am in a sexually-active, monogamous relationship. She is...
