Well, I don't think its anyones business if you are having casual sex...that is a preference, and I think its good you want to protect yourself.


I'm a little foggy as to what your question really is.

Nothing really to add, but be careful. Hope you are feeling better.

Beth:

My only advice for you would be to pick up a box of condoms - they won't affect your meds at all and they will protect you against diseases that pills won't, and be careful who you pick up. Or, find alternatives to picking up some random person.

As for what pdoc or ob/gyn think about you and your choices of sexual behavior - do NOT let them judge me. I had one attempt to push their morals onto me at a time when I was in an extremely wild phase of my life and it made it impossible for me to continue to be their patient.

Good luck and PLEASE stay safe.

Tracey,


I had a "wild" phase also - after my 2nd divorce.

I guess now that this topic is in the spotlight, I hope it's OK if I ask my own concerns on the topic.

I've been on the pill for over a year now. I got on it as a way to curve my cramps and lessen the bleeding because I'm anemic. As it just so happens, the very same time I was starting on it, I was also beginning my relationship with my ex. In the first few weeks of our relationship, we never had sex, but we did do other things that were safer as I wasn't going to do anything further until I was sure it was safe. By the time I was secure with everything, he had gone up and dumped me cold.

So it's been a year now. I'm still a virgin in the main sense of the word, but I'm constantly getting the urge to just go out and find somebody to lose it with because the hormones are racing that fast. I've tried masterbating, but it's left me really bored. Not to mention, when I go to do it, I get really dry and it ends up being a waist of my time. I'm still left frustrated. Worst still is that everytime that I start getting turned on, the only person I can think about is my ex and what we did do. I leaves me feeling rejected, angry, lonely and just might be the reason I'm left frustrated. It's very much a trigger.

Does anybody have any suggestions that might help me stop getting this frustrated over something I'm thinking I should take a little slower?
